lisalan is Canadian, and we do add the u for colour, favourite and theatre. If the American spellings are used in research papers of any sort, usually marks will get deducted.
We say quite a few things differently ie, 'Zee is Zed. Toyota Celica is Toyota Saleeka. And, we are universally known for eh?!!

not to mention this IS an "international forum" - quite a few members are NOT in the USA OR Americans, but then MOST posters don't feel a need to comment on spelling variations.
Havent you seen the Hair Color For Men commercials? Of course they're gonna give him the job....and a piece on the side, too!
Now you've got her all worried! Just keep him away from the Old Spice!
I think the husband should take a clue from us girls and laugh with them to diffuse the mean spirited. I tell anyone who will listen about my hair dye shenanigans. And yes, it may be that the dye job is too harsh. Have him wash 3x in a row with dandruff shampoo. It will fade the color and may reveal a bit of grey for a more natural look.
In our youth culture a bit of help may be necessary for some men as well as women. Regan was elected president and we all knew he was getting some color assistance' but people got used to it. If he shares in the laughter and lets it dye(sorry no pun intended) down, people will move on to something else. A bad toupee one never gets used to, or those bad transplants that look like pubic hair...dyed hair is not so bad.
If I were a man( and its a good thing I'm not ) I would apply vaseline with a comb ever go carefully to my temples before coloring so the dye would resist in those areas.
I think a man should accept the changes as he ages. Why try to look like someone else? If you dye your hair at 50, you are not looking yourself as you really are at 50. Better to get a good haircut and stay well-groomed.
Better to get that body ripped, shed the fat, eat a healthy diet, get enough rest, and focus on other aspects of your life that are more important and more indicative of what kind of man you really are.
Besides, who the hell has time to keep dying their hair all the time? Isn't this repeat process damaging to the hair you already have?
My 47-year-old husband just let his hairdresser daughter dye his gorgeous silver, curly locks dark brown because she needed volunteers for her to do color for her job He had an enviable head of really good grey hair. My first thought was: "here comes the mid-life crisis". While the hair color is OK it is creepy for reasons previously stated because it's so obvious and drastic. And I know that the roots will be showing in a few weeks and that he won't keep it up (not that I want him to...it's a little disturbing - he's been grey for at least five years). Oh yeah, he has long hair. Here comes an extensive, transitional grow out period... I wish he hadn't touched it because he looked great the way that he was. And as professionals, I wish that his daughter and her boss were going for more than a coloring merit badge and were sensitive to the fact that it can be perceived as a bit creepy and desperate when middle-aged men obviously dye their hair. This is one of those "for better or worse" moments...
