Styling Grey Hair: Silver Fox Looks with Pomade
Share
Grey hair stands for experience and confidence. Many men look more striking with grey or salt-and-pepper hair than before. What matters is how the hair is styled: groomed and with a clear shape, grey hair looks refined; unstyled, it can quickly look dull.
What changes with grey hair
Grey hair often feels different from your original hair. It can seem wirier, more unruly or drier and reflects light differently. That is why grey hair benefits especially from products that give control and shine.
Why pomade suits grey hair
- Shine: a silky shine makes grey hair look silvery and groomed instead of matte.
- Control: unruly, wiry hairs are tamed.
- Care: oil-based formulas with beeswax and lanolin coat the hair and protect it from drying out.

Styling tips for grey hair
- Warm it well: rub the pomade between your fingers until soft so it spreads evenly and no clumps are visible in light hair.
- Apply thinly: better twice a little than once too much.
- Use a comb: comb lines emphasise the silver tones.
- Trim regularly: clean contours look especially groomed with grey hair.
Care for grey hair
A mild shampoo, water that is not too hot and gentle use of the blow dryer help keep grey hair supple. A healthy scalp is the basis for good hair. More in scalp care.
