Care for gray hair?

Gray hair tends to be a bit coarser, and consequently wilder than pigmented hair.
For you mature gentlemen out there, what kind of conditioning do you use to tame your gray? And what effect, if any does it have on your pigmented hair?

Well, I have a few and they are WILD and curly and refuse to be TAMED!
I slick them down with gel but a few hours later they have raised
themselves like creatures rising unexpectly from the sea...
Can't drown them...
those hairs have a mean streak!

Try ShoftSheen Breakthru leave in. Use sparingly. You can get it at Wal Mart.
Another thing that works well is this green stuff I get from my stylist. Can't remember the name, but it's made up of phytoplankton. Smells unusual, but is extremely effective.

So I should go to my stylist and ask for "The green stuff that Rokker uses"? Is there any way you could turn this suggestion into something more useful???

Hair coloring is an individual choice. If you don't want the grey, by all means color it.
I typically color only parts of my hair, not all of it. There are plenty of safe hair colors you can use.

I don't do anything. I earned this grey hair over the years,
I enjoy all of it.

I have gray (nearly white) hair to my shoulders. Started to get gray in my twentys -- thirty-some years ago.
I wash it every other morning with Pantene Shampoo/Conditioner and use a few drops of Aussie Smoothy Gloss to help control the frizzies. I have a photo attached, but I have since had a trim last october to even it out and it brought my hair neatly to my shoulders. But now I will not have it trimmed again for several months
I get compliments from many folks that I work with and frequently from strangers. I wear it down most of time, but always have a tail at work. BTW - my boss says she likes it.
gray hair..Very Nice!
