I have a grey-ing mustache.
I’m 32 and only have a few grey hairs on my head.
I decided to do something about it.
Wal-Mart provided me the Just For Men - Beard and Mustache [Dark Brown] treatment which I applied with so much vigor, you’d question my kindergarten teachers inability to lecture us on strategic crayoning.
