Can you guess ...

How old am I?
OP posts:
Ohyesiam · 08/11/2016 21:56

56, ?
But maybe you posted because you look really young for your age, so , I don't know...62?
But then the camera can add years, so, 50?

Ohyesiam · 08/11/2016 22:18

Just saw your update. I like you best with brown hair, but you look good with both. Either way you are a good looking woman , and I envy your cheekbones!
Sad to hear you've been feeling down, hope it all improves soon x

MrsderPunkt · 08/11/2016 22:20

I prefer the brown. You look fab - keep smiling, xx

flumpybear · 08/11/2016 22:24

I think you're looking fabulous!! Honestly mean it too. I honestly thought about my age 44, then closer inspection thought no perhaps 5-7 years older but that was it!

You're beautiful with a fabulous smile .... you really are as young as you feel .... don't feel old, it'll come too soon .....

itsbetterthanabox · 08/11/2016 22:26

I was going to say 48.
You have lovely fresh skin.

ScarletForYa · 08/11/2016 22:29

The brown is lovely OP, suits you a lot.

mumofone1234 · 08/11/2016 22:33

46?

mumofone1234 · 08/11/2016 22:33

Has OP been back?

BakeOffBiscuits · 08/11/2016 22:33

Gosh the brown is smokin Grin

You look great Bertha!x

Jermajesty · 08/11/2016 22:35

Hey Bertha, you look great in both pics, but on balance I prefer the brown. Cheers!

Chickydoo · 08/11/2016 22:36

Your brown hair is fab!

HeyMacWey · 08/11/2016 22:42

The brown suits you so much more I think.
Looks lovely that but shorter too. More stylish I think.

polyhymnia · 08/11/2016 22:49

The brown doesn't exactly look younger but it does look much classier and real. I know that has to be weighed against the expense of frequent root touch ups - if you do go that way, it would be best to get it done by a really good professional to avoid a flat all one colour look.

neveradullmoment99 · 08/11/2016 22:56

I would say, 53?

chatnanny · 08/11/2016 22:56

OP. Bertha. Just wanted to say you look great either way. I'm on the same drug as you, for the same reason, and the sickness does pass within a short time. Good luck.

BreconBeBuggered · 08/11/2016 23:56

My cagey 'older than me, but younger than friend' guess was bang on. I'd have guessed on the younger side with the brown hair. It suits you more and looks to be a better texture.

I would have said 65, so wouldn't have been far off.

KoalaDownUnder · 09/11/2016 02:53

Jeez, hope I look that good at your age!! Flowers

user1477282676 · 09/11/2016 02:57

Well I thought 45. Your eyes have that youthful look to them OP. Older people usually have duller eyes.

bibbitybobbityyhat · 09/11/2016 04:31

I am 54 and guessed you at 50 Bertha, you look tons better than me! And that's despite your "jowels and old lady shoulders" Hmm Hmm [Hmm. One thing this thread has been good for - plenty of names to update the spreadshit with!

BusterGonad · 09/11/2016 06:15

I think the blonde is more striking, the brown looks a bit boring, but it depends on what type of person you are!

Oblomov16 · 09/11/2016 06:30

Being diagnosed with a medical condition is enough to make anyone feel down.
I prefer the brown. It's more natural.
Hope you feel better OP, and I mean just generally.
Christ I hope I look that good at 60! I don't look that good now!

allegretto · 09/11/2016 06:36

50 as a blonde. 43 as a brunette! Either way you look great.

MoonlightMedicine · 09/11/2016 06:36

I think you look beautiful with both hair colours, but the brown looks more natural and you obviously feel better as a brunette so I say go back to brown. I hope you feel better soon, honestly you look fantastic for your age and you have a beautiful smile.
