Hey guys. Found this blog yesterday and loved it. The picture in my profile is from around 4 years ago. For the past 3 years I have been beardless, but decided about 3 weeks ago to start growing again. My kids have always thought I looked better bearded while my wife usually takes to it after 3- 4 weeks. I didn't realize how much I missed it until I started growing it again. My beard has become significantly more gray than it was earlier. I'm interested in finding out if anyone is aware of a 100% allergy free coloring product that won't turn my beard orange, yellow, or some other comical color? I once tried JFM. I ended up having a severe anaphylactic reaction to it that resulted in an emergency room visit to stop my throat, face, and hands from continuing to swell. For those concerned about not being able to grow a decent beard in your 20's, it was only in my late 30's that I finally had enough facial hair growth to even go for my first attempt. All throughout my 20's, other than my moustache, I was pretty much a hairless wonder - so don't write yourself off too soon. Hair density and coverage have only increased through my 40's, but unfortunately accompanied by ever increasing grayness. I'm not super bothered by my color right now, but at the same time don't want to prematurely age myself by having my beard back. Any advice or experience from you all will be appreciated. Later, Lewis
