Hi Lewis,
You grow an excellent beard. Like Kp, I believe any beard decisions are completely personal, including colouring. I see using dye simply as a personal preference, and many guys do a good job with it. However, if I were in your shoes, I think I would just avoid dyes due to the potential health risk. If you do want to go ahead with any sort of colouring, please be extremely careful - research it well, get medical opinions, and be as certain as possible that you aren't allergic before using the product. Just for the record, I think beards look great in all colours including salt & pepper and gray/white. I look forward to seeing more of your new beard as you grow it out. Welcome and good luck.
