Bald with white beard. Any suggestions on what to do to change White to salt and pepper. Looking for something that takes little time and easy to use.
-
I think that would be difficult to do salt and pepper and look good. There are some guys here that completely color their beards. I have thought about dying mine, but decided not to.
I turn 65 in December, and have pretty much decided to shave my beard off on my birthday. It's been about 40 years since I was clean shaven, and I'm curious how I would look.

Thanks for the feedback. Don’t want to use dye. I thought there was a way to darken the white beard but didn’t want it all black.
-
I'm sure a good hair stylist could do it, but it would be expensive to maintain. When I had a lot of grey hair, my ex-wife would reverse frost it. Used one of those caps and pulled stands of hair threw and color them dark. I think they do it now with foil.

I'm down with Reddog and the full white beard.
-
I am at the end of the salt and pepper stage, and can't wait until it goes all white!
-
Salt and pepper? White a dark(ish) grey? If so, thats my goatee too!
Old photo in avatar. Its more light grey now! Not so much dark grey! Lol
Plus i am growing it longer etc now. Early days.

Don't you dare to get rid of your great goatee reddog.

I agree with nuts , shaving would be a mistake.

Yes, I'm thinking you guys are right. I never like it when I trim it short. Maybe I'll grow the full beard in again, or stop shaving for a couple weeks and great myself to a barbershop headshave.
-
I vote for full beard!
-
I can't grow a thick beard either and just keep the face shaved down to short stubble. It always looked good with my flattop and now shaved head. Give it a try it will look good on you.
-
@reddog I think a full beard would suit you!
-
Blagadan, I just grew in the full beard for a couple months. It's not as full on the cheeks as the goatee is, and it didn't look that good. So a few days ago I trimmed it back to the goatee. As a guy with a round face, it looks thinner without the full beard.

Your probably right , because the goatee makes the face look longer, and not wider.

It will happen sooner than you think.

The hair on my chin has gone full white long ago, but the hair of my mustache has a white strip on the top and the bottom and dirty brown in the middle! The hair on my lower lip is solid dirty brown.
Shaved it all off about a week ago - problem solved!!!!!!
I look a lot younger without the gray facial hair and have had a few people tell me just that.
