Aging doesn't have to do you in. Sure, wrinkles might abound and wayfaring follicles may begin to sprout in places you never thought they would, but that's what retinol and waxing are for, respectively.

Plus, if you cut out all those bad habits that will prematurely age you, then you’ve got a good shot of making it as long as possible with a good portion of your looks in tact.

Which leaves us with one final end to tie up: how exactly should you cut your mane once everything’s gone salt and pepper? Because surely grey hair plays by a different set of rules, right? To help clear that up for you, here are 6 styles perfectly suited for guys with grey hair.

The Classic Side-Part

A classic chop, regardless of whether your hair is dark as night or white as new-fallen snow, the side-part can work for any guy, regardless of age. Look at Goldblum here; even with his slightly receding slate grey hairline, this bad boy looks great. (Both the man and his mane, we mean.)

Just because you're older, doesn't mean you can't have a little fun — especially if your locks are thinning. In fact, for guys whose once-thick hair has now started to scatter, adding a touch of playful choppy texture to a shorter cut can actually make a mane look fuller. DDL goes all in on that idea, here, and as you can very well see, it suits the hell out of him.

If you're looking for a truly versatile, sharp as hell cut that's perfectly suited for any occasion, but has still a bit of an edge, then look no further than the buzzcut. Seriously. It's not only incredibly easy to maintain, but, if you're not entirely comfortable with your new grey strands, it'll visually minimize them. Our Commander in Chief knows that. Now you do, too.
