UPDATE showed my friend this post and she was dying with laughter !!! She told me she can’t stand asymmetric bobs and I said that was a good payback ( I have one ) we said we will be laughing about this for years to come !!

This happened yesterday and I’m still cringing.

We were all hanging out, me, my husband, and one of my close friends and her husband. Casual evening, wine flowing, conversation meandering from work drama to random pet peeves.

At some point, I started venting (okay, maybe passionately ranting) about how I cannot stand when men dye their hair. I don’t even know what set me off, maybe it was something we saw on TV, but I just went off about how it always looks weird or artificial and how I wish men would just embrace the gray and age gracefully.

Mid-rant, I notice my friend has gone really quiet. I stop and look at her, and she gives me this deadpan expression before saying, “I make my husband dye his hair.”

Cue the longest silence ever.

Apparently, she prefers the darker look and asks him to touch it up regularly. He kind of just smiled and nodded like, “yep, that’s my life.”

I wanted the couch to eat me alive. My husband slowly sipped his drink, eyes locked on the ceiling like he was trying to astral project out of the room.

I immediately backtracked and said, “Oh but some guys can totally pull it off!” which honestly made it worse.

TL;DR: Went on a passionate rant about how much I hate when men dye their hair… right in front of a friend whose husband does exactly that because she asked him to.

UPDATE: Well I did say I FU and apparently everyone else on Reddit agrees! I have been reading all Your comments.

For the record I don’t dye my hair.

I should not have been judgmental! I agree! I just think people don’t realize how beautiful being natural can be as well. There is no shame with the signs of aging. Gray hair is beautiful but so are all colors ! I don’t care what anyone does anymore !! I learned my lesson the hard way !
