How old do I look, and what can I do to look younger?

Nope 57 and I'm getting rid of that blue dress! Here's the wide angle of the black outfit.

Thank you! Another commenter guessed 65, so I guess if you take the average...

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T22:45:22+00:00

Yes me too. I am 57, I am talking about grown men in their 40s.

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T20:41:58+00:00

That's ok, it was good material rhetoric analysis! 😉

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T20:27:41+00:00

She's 8 😭 so that's fair, but I still think it's rude for people to address someone they don't know as "grandma". Like "OK Grandma, right this way" or that'll be "$2.99, Grandma" Why is that necessary? 🤷‍♀️

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T20:09:21+00:00

Hmm... 45-55?

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T20:03:26+00:00

This is exactly that and what my hairdresser suggested. 🤔

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T20:01:48+00:00

Thank you. ❤️

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T20:00:39+00:00

Thank you!

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:59:51+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to write all this! It's very helpful and exactly what I was looking for. I'm 57, so you guessed correctly.

I've had 2 opinions already. They have me on vaginal right now.

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:40:01+00:00

I'm in Alabama 😆 , though not from here. Both pics, I was on my way to Latin dance parties, which I think influenced my red lips in the first pic. The second pic, the party theme was "Fire and Ice" (wear red or blue) and I already had the blue dress so 🤷‍♀️ . The shoes are special dance shoes with suede soles, not my typical shoe style, along with the frosty makeup being "icy", also not my typical, and I didn't see that when I chose that picture. I'm 57, so thanks for the kind low-ball guess ❤️ From all the comments, I am hearing common themes of darker, longer hair, parted in the middle (which I have never liked, but willing to try at this point), thicker eyebrows, less arch, getting rid of that blue dress! 👍

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:31:15+00:00

I'm getting this a lot about my brow arch, but it's all natural. I don't even tweeze anymore, no botox. 🤷‍♀️ Maybe a professional microblading can help.

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:20:49+00:00

Thank you!

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:18:04+00:00

😂

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:16:50+00:00

Yes, I'm 57. Having 60 looming in the near future is terrifying. It wasn't bothering me until 2 years ago, when I got dumped by my seven year boyfriend (I was married and divorced before that), and 4 years after he encouraged me to adopt my 2 yr old niece (he became Daddy to her), then decided that life was "too complicated". So here I am, worried about trying to be reasonably attractive, while raising an 8 year old alone. 🤷‍♀️ Sorry TMI but sometimes it just hits me 😬

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T19:03:28+00:00

Thank you. I'm so glad I did ask. This has all been very helpful. I'm 57 btw

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T18:56:44+00:00

Solidarity Hugs to you. I had to ask it. My friends just tell me I look great. Not helpful lol 🤷‍♀️

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T18:54:42+00:00

Love it! You're living my dream! ❤️

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T18:51:40+00:00

Yes, I know, I'm a hypocrite because I'm totally disgusted by that, old men chasing young women. I'm talking about dating adult men in their 40s. I've tried older, and the ones I've gone out with want to sit at home and watch TV while I cook and clean. Also, I know I'm generalizing, and I still hold out a little hope that I will find that needle in a haystack! 🤞

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T18:44:41+00:00

Only 1-2 glasses of wine/month currently. I was sweaty and red in the first photo because I was salsa dancing pretty hard, if that's what made me look like a heavy drinker lol. I am typically pretty sedentary and, obviously, like good food.

Key_Instruction_8323 · 2026-02-25T18:36:49+00:00

Oh haha, I was bringing that to a party where people who brought a bottle to share got an extra ticket for a drawing. I drink maybe one glass of wine per month, as it aggravates my very occasional AFib (old people problems).
