Hair dye

Hey guys. I got a tiny patch of hair on my chin (it's my crappy gotee) but you can hardly notice it. I need something to make it darker like hair dye, but I don't have any money for dye. I was thinking something like from around the house? I doubt there'll be anything but it's worth asking.

Just let it grown in natural with time. But to answer your question, try mascarra.

I like your updates. Tell us about the trim you had to get. Did you do it? Did a barber do it? How did you explain it to him? I can hardly tell it's been cut, so you must have gotten off easy! Looks good! Do you still like it?

The hair dye kits at most stores run about $10. You only get one shot with those and have to discard the rest.
I suggest going to a local beauty supply store and purchasing a bottle of concentrated permanent color (your choice). Also get a small bottle of 20 strength developer. You mix the two in a 1:1 ratio. For what you need you could mix 1/4 tsp of each per session. The two bottles will run LESS than $10 for both and since you only use a tiny amount, they will last a long time.
Professional quality products look TONS better and last longer than the cheap stuff. Also, they are closer to the color on the bottle.
To get advice in the store I just play the "dumb guy" and all the pretty girls who work there are always very helpful in answering my questions.
good luck.

At the drugstore, you can buy colour that is meant just for facial hair (I think it is called 'just for men' or something like that.) There are just two tubes to mix together in equal parts, however large or small of an amount you want, and there are many applications in one box. Simple to use and only 5 minutes...and permanent! Here it is only about $7.00 (canadian) a box.
