How old am I?

And what else about me can you infer from this snap?

Regards

We could do with a match the hair to the face thread 😂

I would say early thirties.

EsmeSusanOgg · 23/02/2026 23:05

Hair looks similar condition to mine. I'm 41. But my hair has been slightly dryer for about 10 years. So you could be anywhere between early 30s and mid 40s based on that.

MissAustenMadeAQuilt · 23/02/2026 23:07

It needs cutting unless you are a wistful willowy 18 year old.
From the condition, I would say early 50s.

Impossible to tell. That is basically my hair and Im 64. Mine is in better condition though 😁

Let's see! How do you get it in good condition? Dry-haired gal here would like to know.

Womaninhouse17 · 23/02/2026 23:09

My immediate thought was 50 something.

64 year old hair here:

Wow! Gorgeous!

Teenagequeenwithaloadedgun · 23/02/2026 23:13

The only thing worse than a 'how old am i' thread is a 'what colour are my eyes' thread.

How can anyone tell from the back of your head? I'm too old for this. I'm going to bed.

I am challenging myself in 2027.

I've achieved arm pit length

And bra strap length

This year I'm determined to tuck it in my Apple Catchers.

Bring it on

I'm growing my hair too, since 2021 when it was a chin-length bob, but I'm doing it very gradually with good trims every three months, and a few times over the past few years I've had 2-3 inches off. It's getting there, slowly! You do need patience for the grow-it-slowly approach, though. I have really frizzy, dry hair naturally, that breaks easily, so I thought I'd try this approach. I'm so fed up with mine looking ratty that I wondered if I could have long hair this way (which I define as being at least halfway down my back) and actually have it look healthy too. I've seen some transformations on YT. It's currently about two inches below my shoulders.

No way.
I fucking love that.

bananafake · 23/02/2026 23:18

I’d go for 35. And I like your hair.

EconomyClassRockstar · 23/02/2026 23:22

You have hair just like my 22 yo DD but I don't think she is on MN. God, I hope she's not wasting her life on MN!

67?

EleanorMc67 · 23/02/2026 23:46

I think your hair is lovely.

For the last few years, I've also though "fuck it" (re the stereotypes about older women & long hair - I've just turned 59), & have been growing mine as long as it gets (while still having regular trims). I'm loving it, & fully intend to go down the whole white witchy route if/when I stop colouring it!!

Crazycatladywithnocats · 23/02/2026 23:51

Show us your hands instead.

Carycach4 · 24/02/2026 00:20

How are we supposed to guess when we can't see your face, you donut! 😂

Womaninhouse17 · 23/02/2026 23:09

Same.
I think you think it looks better than it does.
I'm afraid it looks very aging and in very bad condition.

SnowFrogJelly · 24/02/2026 01:01

Cherry374 · 24/02/2026 01:27

All I can see is the very obvious line where your hair finishes and the extensions start!

Ouch

What the F is wrong with 36? 😁

SammyScrounge · 24/02/2026 02:19

She's about 15 i think.
