Do guys ever color their beards if they get some white?

When I used to have a full beard, I had a lot of greys, and I used to colour it. The secret is not to just put on beard colour all over and cover every single white. Most beard colouring kits have a brush with it, my advice is use it!!

Basically blend the colour through a bit and/or use a colour slightly less darker than your hair.. the reason is it looks more natural, in my opinion, than just completely covering every grey.

Only exception to this, I would say is if you only have a few greys and you want to cover them, then sure! go for it! The secret is to practice a bit with it, and leave it looking as natural as possible

Absolutely. I don't care for the hair dyes with all those chemicals. So I've used henna. It creates a much more varied and natural look. Be careful with dark browns and black as they can give your hair a green tint the first time you use it. Build up to that colour if you want it.

Don't colour you beard.There's nothing sexier than natural colours coming through.It makes a guy unique and is far sexier than that 'false' Just for men look.I can spot it a mile off and when I do,it turns me off the guy to be honest.

Is that hair dye made from henna or just the body ink?

I personally celebrate every new grey hair I discover in my beard. It is just so damn sexy. In the matter of colouring: I don't mind if people are into it but don't overdo it. I saw a guy on a train the other day who obviously coloured his beard a deep black…too deep and too black. It look like he fell asleep drunk and was vandalized by his friends with magic marker.

I wouldnt, since I am Lazy af, but I think its a preference, younger is not better for everything so be however you feel better.

I'm almost 34 and I have some grey and white hair in my beard and scalp hair and I don't care and I am not going to dye it as I hear that the dye burns and is not good for your hair, and it looks fake on other men I have seen who do this.

My best buddy - who is straight - started dying his grey chin hair when he grew his beard out. Stopped doing it recently. I think he's embraced it. He's handsome as fuck either way.

Started going grey when I was 15, so have been used to having grey all my life, not going to start dying it… besides it looks distinguised on me, well that's what I've always told myself

Why woyuld you conceal it? It's part of the normal process of getting old and even in some cases it looks nice.

Disease is a normal thing yet we go to the doctors to get better and vaccinate.
Our hair and nails grow long, yet we cut them.
Gaining weight is normal, yet we watch what we eat and maintain a certain weight.
No one is ever born with a tattoo, pierce, or stretched lobe but people do it.

Coloring your facial hair, including eyebrows, can be a normal part of vanity. If you're into, do it – never let anyone tell you that you're obliged to let Mother Nature bitch slap you.

You have a few options:

Go to Amazon and look up UST FOR MEN Color Gel Mustache & Beard. There are others, find one that works for you. BTW, you'll need to touch up ever three or four days for it to look natural. No biggie, takes five minutes.
You can have it lasered off. There are special lasers that target white/gray hairs. Problem solved. You can either target specific hairs or get rid of it all.
Pluck. It's painful but you can get rid of them that way.

I would dye tbh, because white isn't too attractive imho.
