Description: Stressed out about your graying mane? Don’t be!
Keyword: barbershop NYC

   Unfortunately, graying hair is something all of us can not get away from. Many men think silvering of their temples and facial hair to be the foretokens of the upcoming old age. Oftentimes it’s not the case. Hundreds of adult men rock graying beards and lion manes even though they are barely in their 30s! So stop being a metaphorical spoilsport and learn to adapt to your silvering curls with grace. Since you are a spoilsport, who is probably still not persuaded, we are here to help you, pal. Here are three main facts why you shouldn’t hurry to the nearest NYC barbershop and ask to be covered in layers of whatever they call a hair dye!
   The argument number one is… ladies love it. Yes, believe it or not, but most women favor men with some miles on them. Nothing screams “miles” more than a nice patch of graying hair. Speaking teen lingo “chicks will dig you”. If you didn’t like this bout of douchebaggery, then congratulations, you are not an immature teenager wannabe. You are probably a self-aware and proud male, who would prefer being recognised as such. It also means you are more likely to be into more sophisticated women, who will doubtlessly appreciate the “life experience - gray hairs” package deal.
   It’s fashionable. Yes, buddy, wipe that unsure look from your mug and don’t behave so dumbfounded. Graying hair is a trend among both mature gentlemen and adolescent boys. The second, evidently, can not wait to wear a natural full head of gray locks. We are nearing the time, where every single male famous person, who is thought to be desirable, is rocking a graying mane! Why would you perceive yourself to be worse than George Clooney or Brad Pitt? Why would you consider to refuse something young men all over the world try to aquire with the help of peroxide and silver hair dyes? Rock your salt-and-peppered ‘do like the trendy, sexy alpha male you want to be! Honestly, you don’t even have to do anything to be fashionable! 
It gives you the atmosphere of self-confidence and power. We’ve already commented on the “miles” fact, but what you probably don’t understand is – gray hair makes you look refined and worldly-wise. Furthermore, it doesn’t necessary suggest old age. If worn with care and pride, it signifies the milestone in life you’ve always dreamed of reaching when you were a boy. Hit the gym to keep your body youthful and strong if you are afraid of losing muscle mass. Get a nice haircut at the good NYC barbershop, revitalize your wardrobe with stylish, age-appropriate clothes, and be the best version of yourself you can be! We also suggest finding a pleasant, suitable fragrance. Leave that ocean-freshness garbage to lads, who barely hit puberty. Opt for something worthy of a confident, authoritative male you are. Preferably something musky, spicy, and warm. A sharp dressed man with gray dusting his temples, who smells amazing. Can you imagine something more awe-inspiring and worthy of admiration? Because we surely can’t.
   If you are still not convinced, make an appointment at your local barbershop and ask for advice there. The specialist will be much more qualified to sort out your mane than you and us combined. He will be able to explain how to take care of the graying hair properly.
   If you are a more mature gentleman, we suggest sticking to the classic haircuts. Ask the specialist to give you a shorter cut. The French Crop will be a wonderful option. It is perfectly suitable for sophisticated men, while staying rather popular. It is also flattering for males with a receding hairline or thinning hair. Another bonus is – it’s relatively low maintenance. You won’t even have to style it if you don’t want to! Just let it fall into its natural place. It will look good anyways. If you prefer to style it, opt for using a lighter product instead of clays.
   If you are into a slightly more sophisticated look, go for the slicked-back haircut. It will look amazing with silvering of your locks. This hairstyle will look the best if you have slightly longish straight hair. You can still work it if you have a little curliness to your strands, but it is bound to be a little bit more difficult to tame it. Ask the specialist to taper the back and sides tightly – you don’t want them long and unruly, do you? Unfortunately, you might need to avoid this particular style, if your hair is on the thinner side. It will make the receding patches much more noticeable.
   Go for a side-part if you are into a more dapper look. It will go well with formal suits and semi-casual clothing. The base cut is rather generic – short back and sides with slightly longer hair on top. The styling depends on your facial structure, your preference, and your desires. We also suggest asking for the advice provided by the professional. He will be able to evaluate the situation adequately by deciphering your hair type and will recommend suitable styling products. The parting process can be quite tricky. Use the medium-tooth comb and apply the product when the hair is still damp from the shower. 
If you want to be both classy and risky, ask for the pompadour! It will work the best with thicker hair, but can be accomplished on a regular hair. If done and styled smart, it might also be effective to hide some of the thinning patches. Use blow dryer to add some volume to your hair.
   The pompadour is too extreme? Go for a quiff! It is a slightly tamed version of the aforementioned style. Ask a specialist in the barbershop in NYC for recommendations on how to do it properly.
If you are on the younger side, and you sport a head of graying tresses, you can get away with more modern cuts. You can probably pull off a textured cut with a fringe. This particular hairstyle requires a little bit of length in your curls. If you were blessed with a thick, gorgeous mane, this hairstyle will be especially attractive for you. It might work on the thinning hair if made slightly messier, but you are going to need to talk this over with a professional hairstylist. Ask for the information about how to style this cut correctly and choose the products suitable for this purpose.
Request a medium length scissor cut if your hair texture and thickness allow you to! It won’t look as amazing if your mane is on the thinning side, though. We sympathize with your desire to stay young and badass, but maybe choose something, which actually might make you look at least somewhat good. 
   There are also a bunch of haircuts suitable for guys regardless of their age and appearance. For example, you can always go down the memory lane to your army days and choose a buzz cut! This particular haircut will never be out of fashion. The only disadvantage is you need to have a nicely shaped head to sport it the right way. If you are not blessed with the right shape of the skull, go for the slightly square cut. The buzz cut looks good with both fitting suits and sports gear, so you will be able to successfully wear it to both a social event and to a hiking trip!
   There are also cuts and styles we suggest ditching. Opt out of excessively messy looks. They might be helpful when you try to mask the thinning patches, but they are usually not a good look for a 40 something businessman. The same goes for sharp and sudden undercuts. They do look good in combination with silver hair, but usually only on young teenage boys. The last time you checked, were you Zayn Malik? No? That’s what we thought. Lucky Blue Smith might work it, but you surely can’t. Drop the idea of getting a quirky cut or style to seem hipper. You don’t want to embarrass your kids, do you? However, we don’t say you should ditch playing with lengths altogether. We just urge you to stay withing the safe lines. Although, if you don’t have kids to embarrass, feel free to experiment as much as you wish! 
   Remember that every suggestion is completely optional and there are no laws for wearing a hairstyle. Do whatever you want to do and rock whatever hairstyle you want to! Chop it all off or get yourself a hard part. Grow out a true lion’s mane or shave a design in your sides. At the end of the day, it’s your hair and no one can tell you what to do with it. Well, apart from your spouse. You don’t want them to leave your sorry ass, do you? 

Still, we suggest rereading this article the next time you decide to drench yourself in hair dye to mask your graying mane, and think about why you should not discard it so easily!.
