Grey's Anatomy

"Can I pluck your grey hair baby?" I asked my husband while stroking his "salt and pepper" hair.

"Leave it alone." He said simply.

"I promise not to charge you for a pound each."

"Even if it's for free, baby, I won't let you." He answered.

"Well, can I just pluck the ones that stood out then, they're not that many anyway." I said.

"I said leave it alone." He said this with utmost annoyance.

"Can we dye it then?" I asked him with a slight cheekiness.

"Ang kuleeeeet!" He retorted.

This is usually our banter everytime we have a lie-in. And, it's always his hair at the center of attention. My husband has a naturally black hair but started to have this annoyingly singular grey hairs a few years back. So now instead of having a luscious black hair, he has now a headset filled with salt and pepper.
But to be honest, the look fits him perfectly and he doesn't look old for his age, if anything, he looks more mature and sexy. The fact that he's not bothered about it and doesn't seem to care just adds to the cool factor.
I must admit, men with grey hair doesn't look too bad. It doesn't make them look awful, instead, it suits them in every way. But there are also a handful of men who color their hair to vanish the grey but they only looked unnatural, trying hard, and seem to be carrying a full on wig on their heads. Please stick to the grey guys, you might end up being a headturner :)
For us women, a big chunk of the vanity pie has been eaten and swallowed if grey hair starts sprouting into our crowning glory .To us, it means that we are getting old and stressed and always likened ourselves to our grandmothers. Thus we find ways and means to become younger and appealing once again.

For men, grey hair makes them even more sexy and mature. It adds to their sex-appeal and it's definitely not to dye for.
And I guess, when it comes to the attitude of getting old gracefully, men surpass women.
