He looked wise and dignified even into his later years. By 84 AC, at the age of fifty, Jaehaerys had grown thinner, almost gaunt, and his beard and hair had become more grey than gold.

Even at an old age, Jaehaerys still stood unstooped. At an older age, his beard had turned white, and had grown to reach his waist. He was a tall and handsome man who wore his hair in a thick braid that fell almost to his waist and his facial hair had grown out into a handsome full golden beard, shot through with silver. By the time he had turned twenty-four, Jaehaerys looked “every inch a king”. Early in his reign he grew a wispy beard and mustache. At the age of sixteen, he wore his hair loose, flowing about his shoulders. According to a semi-canon source, Jaehaerys had the purple eyes of House Targaryen.
