A Gentleman's Guide to Going Gray, or Not

Finding your first gray hair can be a bit unnerving. It's a stark reminder that you're getting older, something none of us want to face. But there is one question that even those that are already well on their way to gray struggle with. Should you cover your grays or embrace them? The recent trend of young men dying their hair gray makes it even more difficult to decide. Today we will look at some of the pros of covering your grays as well as the pros of going gray to help you decide which is right for you.

The Pros of Covering Your Grays

If you'd like a more youthful look, covering your grays will instantly shave years off of your appearance. When you look younger you feel younger, and this can give you a big confidence boost. 

Hiding those grays will help avoid age discrimination. As unfair as it is, ageism exists in the workforce, and while it shouldn't even be a  concern, covering your grays can help you avoid the problem altogether.

If you've been wanting to try a new color, covering your grays will provide the perfect opportunity. There is no rule that says you have to try to match your natural color when dying gray hair. Go ahead and try something fun!

The Pros of Going Gray

It's no secret that many women find gray hair incredibly sexy. If you're single you might want to embrace those grays and try out the life of a silver fox.

Gray hair projects a mature and respectable image. It's a banner of wisdom and a lifetime of experience that you can be proud of.

You will save time and money by not covering your grays. You won't have to worry about trips to the salon every few weeks to try and hide those roots. And when your beard and eyebrows start to go gray as well, they won't look out of place.

At the end of the day, it all boils down to what you deem most important. Whatever you decide, the expert stylists at Utopia Salon & Day Spa are here to assist you.
