MILWAUKEE, Wis. --Don't expect Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney to endorse hair dye products anytime soon.
The former governor of Massachusetts laid to rest on Friday any rumors that he dyes his hair black. His sleek dark coif, with just a hint of gray on his sideburns, is completely natural, he told reporters following a fundraiser in Milwaukee.
"I don't dye it. I don't color it and you can take a real close camera shot and see there's a lot of gray mixed in with all that black," said a laughing Romney.
Earlier this month Romney turned 60, an age when many men are forced to decide between coloring their hair or living gray.
Though Romney hasn't had to think about that just yet -- or so he says -- his campaign advisers worry that his hair is too perfect, according to an internal campaign document that recently surfaced in the media.

Now we have something Reaganesque to admire in Romney...
Okay, his hair is naturally black. But is his skin naturally orange, like John Kerry's? We wait with bated breath.
Fred Thomson almost has no hair--but I like him.
Duncan Hunter's hair looks like he doesn't comb it some times--I like him.
Looks like the only one Mitt has something in common with is Edwards--the Breck Girl.
Edward's hair looks like it used to belong to a Televangelist.
Wow what an important issue to focus on.
It's sad when natural vs. dyed hair is considered newsworthy.
When my dad passed away in his early 70s he had very little hair, but none of it was gray.
I'm sooooo glad to know that Romney's hair is natural. I know it'll make a big difference in how I'll vote!/s
You know what they say "Hair today, Goon tomorrow."
Must not run in the family.
I've never seen "baited" spelled like that here before. Was it a typo?
Seriesly, I need to no.
I believe this like I believed Reagan's similar claim.
