memories from the past Posted in January 2026 by Engineer KhalidMahmood
When I was a student, I did not care much about my appearance did not shave every day. But when I shaved I frequently used lot of after shave lotion and sometimes after shave splashes, circa early 90s my overgrown shave started showing some grey hair and my mustaches were showing brown hair, some one asked me the reason for it, I thought it was due to my use of aftershave products. People used to look at my face and perhaps thought it was due to make over, but it was not, it was real. Reason behind, I thought it was due to aftershave products, because I heard at home from my mother and other relatives that aftershave, perfume sprays etc can decolor gold jewelry, so it can decolor human body hair as well. Perhaps due to added impurities in gold jewelry. 100% 24 carat gold may not decolor. Does not happen instantaneously, it happens over a long period of time.
