In the Men Going Their Own Way subreddit, a wise elder who calls himself lonewolf-chicago warns his younger colleagues to watch out for the insidious danger of … women who dye their hair. You may think these women look hot, he tells the assembled MGTOWs, but they don’t look hot, because their hair is a LIE! Also, he notes, his ex-wife has a fat butt.
Let’s hear him out:
I’m an older guy. I’m 45 and there are no women anywhere close to my age that doesn’t dye their hair. Some have pretty faces a few are even fit but they all died their hair.
If they did not dye their hair all of them would look like old ladies. All of them. So just this one act of dying their hair conceals at least 10 years of age.
Damn these women for trying to look their best!
So if a woman is 35 or 40 and she dyes her hair you have to imagine what she looks like without her hair dyed.
Er, why exactly do you have to do this?
I am 45 I have very little gray hair I do not wear makeup… obviously, but women my age smile and become coy when they get carded at a restaurant or at a bar even though it’s only because the Law States the bouncers must card everyone who walks in the place.
Their narcissism makes them believe that it’s because they still look young. But it’s only because they dye their hair.
Wait, I thought it was because the bouncers have to card everyone. Keep it together, man, you’re losing it!
One of my Ex-Wives friend has been almost totally gray since she was 30 years old she’s 44 years old now she is a hairdresser. She is attractive but she dyes her hair which means she’s not attractive … she hit the wall at 30.
It’s like a MGTOW Koan: What is the sound of one women who is attractive but also not attractive?
If you didn’t look at my ex-wife’s ass and the horrible fat lard cottage cheese on the back of her legs you would say that she’s attractive. She has humongous tits but her nipples never come out… so they are basically a big slab of fat. She dyes her hair. She would not look pretty if she did not dye her hair she would look like an old lady.
Somehow I don’t think this woman really regrets kicking this guy to the curb.
Women are narcissists and they live in a fantasy world. They think what they look like with colored hair and makeup and those undergarments that suck in all the fat is how they actually look. They live in a fantasy land.
Have you guys gotten the picture yet? Do you get it? Women over 40 for sure do not look like they actually look. It’s fucking makeup. It’s fake.
WOMEN OVER 40 DO NOT LOOK LIKE THEY ACTUALLY LOOK.
You heard it here first.
I’m 47 and don’t dye my hair because my employer has a rule about “only colors that occur naturally in human hair.” There’s a rumor that the rule may be dropped soon, and if it is I’m thinking green.
Fuck, they’re onto us. Why did we ever sell hair dye openly in drug stores and advertise it on TV?
@WWTH
Axe, glad I caught ya!

Finally.
@ nicolaluna
Nice to see you back.
I once mentioned to someone that I enjoyed applying her fake tan because I found it relaxing “like painting a skirting board”. That did earn me a bit of an eye narrowing, but I can’t help being such a romantic.
@ vicky p
*sniffle* That’s so lovely.
@Victorious Parasol
Congratulations on the anniversary on your victory. What shade of green are you going? My oldest son has the most beautiful shade of teal.
@ Alan
He tends to be rather good at turning phrases like that when I least expect it. There’s a reason we’ve been happily married for so long.
Waiting for the thread from mgtows complaining bitterly how women breathe too much, taking too much oxygen away from more important men. women drink too much water, and women blink too frequently are other possibilities.
At this point, existing annoys mgtows so eh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But the wall has been risen to 30 when it was originally 25! Damn. So I have 6 more years until I’m, by their own words, useless and that’s way too long for me to wait for my invisibility to them.
@Myriad
Thank you. I haven’t really picked a particular shade of blue (not green), because the color expert at my stylist has worked with me before on red highlights (years ago) and I trust her color sense. I know she’ll suggest something that works with my hair color and complexion, and I can just sit back and relax.
I’m not really much for DIY hair color – I’m a bit cowardly for that – and I’m glad I can reach out to someone who knows what they’re doing.
@PeeVee
It’s a start. And the headline annoys me. It wasn’t the violence that made em change (that shoulda been enough). It was the weeks long downpour of righteous anger. But whatever. They shouldn’t be defending these fucks to begin with. They are inherently violent, guns or no (and good luck getting the police to, I dunno, police that). Ms Heyer wasn’t shot, was she? Ugh all around. But it’s a start…

@Victorious Parasol – aw, that is so sweet! I hope it turns out beautiful.
I just turned 50, and my hair is still its original shade. There’s a few silvery hairs, but not all that noticeable. I might dye it one day if it looks awkward while it’s transitioning to whatever its eventual color turns out to be, but that would be because I like it that way, not because I’m trying to deceive MGTOWs into finding me attractive. PEBCAK, dude.
Scene: Restaurant. Two MGTOWs are dining out.
Waiter: How is everything?
MGTOW 1: Well, if you overlook the stench and the irridescent slick and the metal staples, it’s delicious! Perfection!
Waiter: Um…And you, sir?
MGTOW 2: I’m outraged. Your restaurant is a TOTAL FRAUD. This food does NOT look like it looks. You cooked it, then arranged it on a plate to disguise its essential truth. Onions in nature aren’t caramelized. Parsley doesn’t come in little sprigs. And what is this savory brown stuff that I can’t stop licking off the plate? I want my money back, you charlatans!
Waiter: *backs slowly into hedge*
You know how poison dart frogs are bright colors to ward off predators?
Anyway that’s why my hair is pink.
Axe,
It is a start. Progress is slow sometimes, (sometimes too slow), but it’s steady.
I’ve observed that, at least in the US, most younger women have made some enhancements to their natural hair color. Highlights, or lowlights. Or, they’ve gone hog-wild with the rainbow colors.
So, what with many older women choosing to cover their gray, chances are any woman you see outside a nursing home has dyed her hair in some way.
More and more young men these days are going with the frankly unnatural colors in their own hair. I applaud this.
Right now, my hair is a white-woman-of-a-certain-age medium reddish brown. Boring. Naturally, it’s a cool-toned dark brown. Some gray, but not much. Anyway, as I aged, my hair seemed to lose some of its vibrancy, even before the gray showed up. I miss my dark hair, but the softer, warmer color does look better against my skin. Maybe I’ll get some coppery highlights next.
I love the wild colors, but I don’t have the courage to make a huge change in my appearance. I would have to bleach my hair first, and that’s terrible for the hair, especially for fine hair like mine.
Well, sorry to ramble. I’ll have to stick to makeup if I’m craving some bright color.
@Victorious Parasol
I don’t know why I put green. Must be the lady brain kicking in. Blue sounds lovely as well. I hope you post pics of it when you do. That is if you feel comfortable doing that.
I used to have bright red a few years back, but I’m kind of lazy right now, so it’s back to dark blonde. Maybe I’ll try some lavender highlights to start with.
I recently turned 50 and there are noticeable white streaks in my mostly-reddish-brown hair. I have tried to dye it numerous times, but dye just doesn’t “take” on me. A shampoo or two, and even “permanent” dye becomes very, very temporary. Anyone who wants to know what my real color is should just wait a couple of days after I’ve tried to dye it, and they’ll know. I’ve never been rejected on the grounds of looking my age yet. So I call bullshit on this guy.
I also really wonder what this prize-winning specimen of manhood really looks like, because on the Internet it’s possible to lie like a dirty old rug about your looks all day long. Especially if you’re a misodge hiding behind the whole “going his own way” thing.
Well, they’re onto us. Damn…
My hair has not been it’s natural color for long since I was in college, and I’m 47 now. But I’ve graduated from “natural” shades and gone purple. I’ve recently learned that they consider that to be Problematic (lol) but I allow my grey to show by keeping the sides buzzed and undyed. Pretty sure I’d never pass as a sweet, young thing even without the grey, but bright colors are nature’s way of saying Don’t Touch, right? 😉
I do not dye my graying hair.
OTOH, I wear a glossy burgundy lipstick. I think that it makes me look a little more “pulled together,” as a fashion writer might say. In a boho kind of way.
One ingredient of this lipstick is hemp oil. Hemp is a wonderful thing, and I hope to Katie that we can grow it legally in the USA sometime very, very soon. I’m not trying to get high; I’m trying to save the planet. But I digress.
If any MGTOW thinks that my lips are naturally a shiny burgundy, he’s extraordinarily naive.
And if any MGTOW thinks I care at all about pleasing the eyeballs of a man who hates women, he’s profoundly mistaken. (Also, ick!)
Memo to MGTOWS: What, exactly, would be the point of attracting a MGTOW? Like most women with a choice in the matter, I want to be with a guy who has a sense of humor and respects and likes me. You guys are none of the above.
On the internet, no one knows you’re a flock of seagulls.
I’m 27 and thought of dying my hair grey in feminist social protest of the pressure society puts on women to stay looking youthful. MGTOW always play “devil’s advocate” to anything with the slightest wiff of feminism — I wonder what his complaint would be this time. Does he than start insisting all women need to hide grey hair and not flaunt it???
I’m soon to be 49 years old, I have had precisely ONE white hair in my life… it was actually ten years ago… and “below the belt”, if I may be coy. I plucked it, and none grew back.
My MOTHER who is 80 years of age, ALSO has no grey/white/silver hair(s). I know this because [long story short] she went into the hospital last May and was just placed into a physical therapy program at a nursing home. They don’t dye your hair for you in the CCU, and they haven’t done it at the nursing home. Her hair is as mousy blonde as it ever was. No roots showing; all one color hair still.
Among the many, many things that irk me so about MRAs/MGTOWs, etc., is how they really, really believe they are so endowed with knowledge when that ain’t even *close* to what they’re filled with.
Chi-Town is right to warn younger dudes about these cougars and encourage them to mentally imagine the true appearance and true sexual marketplace value of these overripened peaches. That makes it easier to abstain (if they’re going monk) and also makes it easier to properly/effectively approach relations with such females (if they’re looking for a pump and dump, practice girlfriend, or sugar momma).
When older married females do this, I give them credit for putting in some effort. When older unmarried females do this, it’s kind of sad.
My base hair color’s brown. I have red highlights throughout, a few blonde strands toward the front, and even some blue near the roots. I’ve never dyed it or had a perm.
@Based Melvin Udall
Oh hey, we women certainly appreciate your critique and will definitely take it to heart — just as soon as hell freezes over.
Speaking of which, don’t you have someplace else you have to be?
