1. Well, it's kinda outta your hands, but
it helps not to start out butt-ugly to begin with. :rofl:

Seriously, I've noticed that it's not a problem for most men. :hi:

2. secret #1....
Stay fit.

Seriously. Whatever natural good looks and charm any of us has is enhanced by good health, and overshadowed by obvious poor maintenance.

5. Awww...I resent that. T'ain't true.
Married 42 years this April and I'm just as handsome and dashing as I ever was.
Just ask Miz t.
It just takes me a little longer to get that way now.

18. Wax on ... wax off!
or at least trim 'em down! Because nothing says "I've still got it" like gray chest hair.

4. Gray or graying hair actually HELPS men look better as they age.
.
.
.
My hair started going seriously gray in my 40's and is now completely so.
.
.
.
It's funny... gray hair starts up north and migrates south over the years.
My chest hair is now ALMOST completely gray -- having followed the hair
on my head by about 5-10 years.
.
.
.
.
.
I can't WAIT for my pubic hair to turn gray.

9. I am one.
2 years ago, people thought I looked 27 (I was 29). Now people think I look 24-25 (I'm 31.) When I was 12, I was drinking in Canadian bars where the drinking age is 18 without being carded.

I just seem to have hit and remained in the age sweet spot for like the last 20 years...I simply look like I'm in my mid-twenties perpetually.

How old are you? I can give you my secrets but if you're too old or there is too much damage, you'll never turn the clock back very much at-all. It's basically skincare and wellbeing though...I'm girlier than any woman I've ever dated. I spend $100+/year on skin products. I exfoliate. I moisturize. I wear sunblock year-round. I use eye-cream and lip-moisturizer and pore-strips.I pretreat my face before shaving. I don't use soaps or surfactants because they're drying. My diet is strictly regulated.

He's got grey & white hair but all it does is make him better.

We used to be equals, look like a couple.. now he gets better every year and I get saggier, it's hitting me fast too :cry: :cry: A few more years and we'll look like he's just staying with me out of pity :cry:

33. Absolutely no smoking cigarettes cause it ages you. No toupees.
Keep a great sense of humor. But you're already great because you are a Democrat.
