DAMN, my beard is greying and I am 20 yrs old.

How can this be???

What to do (barring hair dye, of course)?

Edit: Will this make me look more distinguished and AWESOME

1. Do you have early graying in you family? My friend in High School

was totally gray by 17. There is nothing you can do without living with it or coloring it

17. Change your name to Santa

3. It makes you look distinguished

At least that's what everyone tells me.

4. I know a guy who went bald at 24.

Gray isn't so bad, unless you dig having no hair up top.

5. Shave it off

The beard gets gray before the mustache. I know from experience.

What can you do? That's life. Be happy you don't have anything serious to worry about!

6. shave it off

it'll make you look younger, too. My hair is starting to grey out, most notably my chest hair. I guess they don't make chest hair dye.

11. I agree...if the goal is to look younger

shave it off!

7. Well I found a gray eyebrow today. Now that is scary!

8. my brother started greying in High School

it slowed down though.

10. I got my first gray hairs in HS.

Just a few in the bangs, now at 40something I am30% gray. I like it. My hair used to be medium-light brown, now it is blonde w/ 'highlights' of gray.

Gray hair can look cool. Hair dye is REALLY scary stuff - read the ingredients and then think about the fact that that crap is going to be absorbed in to your skin the whole time you are dying your hair.

12. I got my first gray hair at 14.

By 40, I was 75% gray. Ain't a darn thing you can do about it, except dye it, and that doesn't always look good with beards.

13. I once knew a guy that used mascara?

you could buy some of that Ron Popiels Blad Head spray and use that to color your beard?

14. I started going gray in the 8th grade.

Runs in the family. I was 50/50 gray in high school, and almost entirely gray by the time I was out of college. I never once felt like it was a problem; I was always complimented on the color. In fact, girls dug it. ;)

Now at 35, my hair is almost all gray (just a bit of the original black in the front), and my beard (just a small patch of fuzz on my chin) is mostly gray as well.

Don't sweat it, man - it's a cool look. I'd rather be gray than be losing it!

21. 11th Grade for Me!

I was 17 and did not get turned down for a date ONE SINGLE TIME for the rest of the time I was in HS and rarely in college.

As with you, the girls dug it! Now my wife tells me if I dye my entirely gray hair I'll be reminded that Lorena Bobbitt was a hispanic woman also!

[BikeWriter]

15. Hmm, I have some beard sites to recommend. :-)

I have a beard also. Mine is whi... uh, blonde...

[Mumble]

16. At the rate your body is aging

you may be impotent by age 25.
Look at the gray hairs as the lesser of two evils considering the consequences in a few years if present rate of decline is maintained.

God bless you. Enjoy it while it lasts!

[SmokingJacket]

18. Don't touch it!

My husband is finally getting a few gray beard hairs and I loooove it.

It will definitely make you look more distinguished and tres awesome.

19. Sexy.

My youth pastor when I was a senior in HS was 32 or so, and he was totally salt and pepper. He was very attractive. I think premature graying rather sexy.

22. Relax - chicks dig grey

The chicks worth mentioning, at any rate...

[underseasurveyor]

23. Don't think of it as grey

Think of it as chrome ;-)
That's how my husband describes the color his long long silver/white/grey hair. Sexy :9
