Hm. Like, my sense is that there’s nobody in the history of the world who has a grey beard like that, but a perfectly black head of hair, short of dye.
I have barely any grey/white hair on my head, but Trudeau-level portions of my beard are white, (if I let it grow). Beard & head changing colour out of sync seems to be pretty common.
My beard used to be a mix of reddish and brown. All the red went white. The hair on my head is still all brown. Maybe one white hair here and there. I don’t think it’s all too uncommon, but I have had people ask me if I dye my hair.
I have been wondering what I would remember most from this experience.
Now I know, it will be this video. Even if we have full-on revolution, it will be this video.
FWIW My hair went gray at the temples in little stripes on my beard like a comic book middle aged guy. Everyone goes gray their own way. Now all my beard is grey except for a bit that makes me look like I have a trucker mustache.
As I lost hair on my head what remained went darker, while the hair on my face went white. There is now a nice demarkation exactly in line with the arms of my glasses.
Ah the arrogance of youth! 😛
I turn 40 this year and my childhood friend calls me “Mr Fantastic” now because of my greying temples.
“Speaking moistly” will be a defining moment in English Canadian experience of this pandemic.

He should stop dying his hair, or start dying his beard.

Covid does feel very 80s.

@David: my beard went gray 10 years before my hair did.

Was that your experience?

I’ve seen numerous memes about it.

Me too, grey on the chin before the head.

my beard is almost totally white and not a grey hair on my head – people have accused me of dying my hair – for reference I’m mid-40s
