Ladies!!! Put the fan away and sit down…No Sis, you are not having hot flashes!! You are getting a glimpse of our counterparts: Behold The Silver Men.
So, move over Silver Sisters and make way for these Silver Brothers to stand alongside us in the burgeoning Positive Aging movement as we light the path in the Silver Spotlight together. Gray haired salt and pepper men, celebrities, and high powered business men alike have long been deemed sexy and mature merely getting better with age while traipsing around with much younger arm candy. Silver Sisters have finally caught up, owning their glorious tresses and making a big splash on social media. And while the world is finally taking notice that aging and gray hair can indeed be beautiful, this is a new breed of silver haired foxes; men confident in style and swagger for the whole world to see. They are kicking it up a notch or two.
“The clinical research tells us that by the age of 50, most men will develop grey hair (Genetics Home Reference, 2017). Your hair color is determined by a pigment called melanin; a substance that hair follicles produce. Hair follicles are dynamic structures that reside in the dermal layer of your skin and made up of 20 unique cells. As you age, these follicles produce less melanin, thereby reducing color pigmentation. Some men will start to notice grey hair atop their head in their 20’s. More will spot whitish patches in their 30’s. And by the time you are 40, you will likely see (some) salt and pepper set in”. (From guycounseling.com)
Either that, or they start going bald. Not that baldness is a bad thing, but with the popularity of beards today, it adds a nice counterbalance to the baldness while showcasing their silver tinsel.
These brothers have defined their individual style, and not only are they looking Fly, but they are notably health conscious and fit.
So, I hereby give you permission to behold God’s magnificent creations without guilt!
Looking is free!
Whether bald or bearded, dread locked or tatted, each Silver Brother depicted here is making his unique silver splash in a big way:
Some are professional models like @orlandosilverfox who is as close to perfection as one can get. The word “Adonis” comes to mind with his chiseled body and face to match. (He also gives me a Prince vibe in some photos)(photo credit: Gunnar Gabrielsen)
@mrericcedeno, a silver model, sports gorgeous silver locs along with that enviable flawless skin AND smile.
I have been following @city.lord as he makes his way around colorful spots in Germany to capture great vibrant pics.
@alisudani just looks great with that silver crown and beard, and sports a modern twist to his classic style.
@franky_silverman is a model who wears a longer beard and sports rugged manliness with street style cool, and I am not mad at all those tatts!
@mrmoodydresser has impeccable swag and style as he bounces effortlessly between cool dapper looks and ultra-chic street style.
@biggrip69 has a unique and glorious snow white beard, keeps fit, and is a Deputy Sheriff…I feel safer already!!
@aldgoldie is a model who can sport clean classic handsome looks as well as rough and rugged ones
@tonsorialist_mrdexx is a NYC based Grand Master Barber and you can tell by his beard game and debonaire air. (Yeah, I had to look up “tonsorialist” too!)
@therealwinstonwarrior – apparently bald heads and beards are a thing, and Mr. Winston: multi-talented musician, artist, and more, knows how to work it all very well…
Just like Silver Sisters ditching the dye, men can put away their boxed dye and be confident that the gray doesn’t make them look old, they look Grayt!
It is truly all about mindset, attitude, self-awareness, and style. It can make all the difference between old and bold.
So go ahead and scoot over Silver Queen, and let that Silver King take his rightful place on the throne.
I know you will give your Silver Brothers a follow…
Like Silver Sisters, there are so many Silver Brothers to choose from it was hard to select them so I will most likely feature more Silver Brother in upcoming posts.
What do you think…do you want more???
Post your comments below, and submit your favorite silver brothers for my next post.
Smoochez!!!

Back when I was living in Brooklyn a few years ago, I found myself in an unexpected situation that left me reflecting on the perceptions of age and vitality. As I strolled down the street behind a group of high school students, I couldn't help but notice their slower...
Sunday Service. Sometimes we have to remind ourselves of these verses: Philippians 4:6-7 It’s easy to look around and get stressed out. Shoot, even social media can stress us out, whether we’re consuming and doom scrolling, or keeping up with content creation. Everything is moving fast and what’s new today is literally old news tomorrow, so the pressure to keep up is reel.😆 Hanging on to this verse is priceless, so we don’t have to hang onto stress. And we can still be Fly y’all! Did you need this reminder? Say Amen!! Sweater poncho @tjmaxx Boots @charlesdavidshoes

For the first few years after you left us, around mid-January I would start to feel depressed, and then I remembered that you died on January 18th. Then it made sense. Time has healed the scar, but you’ve been heavy on my mind. As a teenager full of angst, I didn’t realize at the time that your “overprotectiveness“ was just care and love. As your only daughter (with four older brothers) of course you were concerned when I went out into those New York City streets. When you become a parent yourself, you suddenly get it! Praying that angels will go with your child and keep them safe. I did that too. Sometimes I think of you and I still feel your prayers over my life🙏🏽. Getting teary thinking about it. But I recognize that it was your faith that inspired me to a life of faith. I remember us dancing to this song. You loved it. Thank you, mom. Love you always till we meet again.🙏🏽❤️
Sunday Service. I told you all it’s not really a big dress up town, so I’ll be going to church kind of casual today. God knows our hearts. Quoting Hebrews 4:12 today. The Word cuts deep, and this verse explains it well. It exposes our hearts and our motives. That’s why so many run from it, not realizing that it’s actually the way to real peace. Have a blessed week y’all!!

By the time we thought about filming the unboxing, the mattress was already doing its job y’all! We chose the Nolah Evolution Plush—and after sleeping on it, I’m really glad we did. It arrived rolled and boxed to our door, set up easily, and has genuinely improved how we sleep and how we feel when we wake up. I need support, Dave needs cooling, and we both wanted a mattress that doesn’t quit halfway through the night. The bonus is I haven’t been waking up with sore shoulders ever since we got it!
Nolah is known for its cooling technology, pressure relief, and long-lasting durability—and after sleeping on it, I get why. Plus, you get a 120-night sleep trial, a limited lifetime warranty, and flexible payment options. 👉 Comment LINK below and use my code FLYGRANNYBK to get an extra $50 off your mattress. @nolahsleep #nolahsleep #ad
Throwback to the 70s- my favorite era with my bestie @tanyafelder57 . Looking back, we were grown! Or at least thought we were.😂 We were students at the High School of Art & Design in NYC and we had a blast running those city streets. We were always together until boys came into the picture. ( @tanyafelder57 remember Fuzz and Whaley?😂) Love you girl!!!
My favorite thing was taking the F train to the Village, and shopping on West 8th Street. There was a store called Azuma that I loved to frequent. I’d walk down to St. Marks in the East Village where Punk Rock was definitely in the air. It was wonderful just being a short train ride from Brooklyn to the city. Truly the good ole days, and great memories. For these photos, I think we took a bus ride with my mom to Virginia. I think it was her snapping these shots. If you grew up in NYC in the 70s, share some of your best memories below👇🏼 #tbt#vintage70s#1970s Teens in the 70s, best friends,vintage nyc, life in the 1970s, vintage memories, black teens in the 70s, nyc life, New York in the 1970s
They say everything old is new again—and this kitchen remodel before and after proves it. Nothing was broken. We just wanted better. More intentional. More us. Dave’s been talking about giving the kitchen a facelift for years, so we finally said, alright, let’s do it right. We removed cabinets, repainted, upgraded the flow, and brought in new appliances—yes, from @bestbuy. Don’t sleep on Best Buy. That electronics-only reputation is outdated. A smart kitchen refresh doesn’t have to be a full teardown. Sometimes new color, better function, and thoughtful upgrades are enough to make the whole space feel brand new. Floating shelves are next, and Part 2 is coming. These baby boomers are not trying to be cold, confused, or outdated. We’re inside. Comfortable. And very happy with our Café appliances.

The choice to embrace your natural silver strands is nothing short of revolutionary. It’s like telling the world, “I am comfortable in my own skin, and I’m here to slay.”
