I've had greying hair since the age of 17. I get it colored every month to 6 weeks at a salon. I also know quite a few folks who color their hair themselves.

I'm sure the folks at a salon can do your eyebrows too.

Just for Men - works great. Eyebrows, chest hair, arm hair, whatever is gray. I hear you - the gray makes you look old. Getting rid of it takes years off your appearance even if nothing else has changed.

^This

MotownJohnny is dead on for this. Personally my graying eyebrows are far less noticeable than the gray in my beard. And to top it off, it's not graying evenly, the right side is more gray than the left!

Have your barber trim your eyebrows so that they grey there is less noticeable.

As you get older, if you opt not to dye your hair, then you will just have to accept the grey. Gosh, I've even had grey nose hairs! And, grey pubic hairs! There is a big "V" in the center of my chest with grey hair. Frankly, I would gladly accept all grey hair if I could get it to grow on my head so that I would not be bald! I wish the hair on my back was grey instead of black so that it was less noticeable! I now have so much grey hair that dyeing the hair on my head would be a waste. I'd have to all the hair on my body dyed!!!

There are special kits to help you dye hair in hard or small places. Buy one of the beard dyeing kits - those should have the small brushes needed to make your eyebrows darker.

Dye your eyebrows! I used to do that when I went blonde which is definitely not my natural hair color. I'm 22 and I have 3 gray hairs sprouting. 3 of them, very annoying. I pluck them which I hear you aren't supposed to do because of that old wives tale about more growing in it's place...but I'm not about to dye my entire head for 3 gray hairs.
