I’m 30 and my hairline still intact
full


Being slim and fit helps as well, but like @Scustin Bieburr said it boils down to genetics. My dad didn’t start looking his age until his mid 50’s.

I eat bullshyt and burn weed everyday but people still think I’m 21.

Cashiers be thinking they got me when I’m trying to buy rollup at the store, only for them to card me and see that I’m older than them. Thats a flex not many are blessed to have :wow:

In my teens and 20s, folks thought I was older than I was. But I've been taking much better care of myself for the past few years (gym, diet, skincare), and now that I'm in my early 30s, and it's like I've been aging backwards. :blessed:

Genetics.

I know people who treat their bodies like shyt and are heading into their 60s only JUST starting to get grey hairs.

I've been 40 years old since I was 20.

Everyone in my age group thinks of Morgan freeman as an old man. That man has looked old since the damn 90s. Angela basset is old enough to be a grandmother but if you casted her as the mother of a 20something year old nobody would think "nah she too old for that"

Obviously try to avoid stress and do what you can to eat well, but it's lots of people out here who look older or younger with the same lifestyles. It is what it is.

Late stage capitalism. If you don't come from money it's gonna be 10x's harder for the next generation. Praying for my Gen Z and Gen Alpha brehs, millennials were probably the last group that could squeeze into the middle and upper middle class coming from no money. shyt's about to be a true bloodbath for y'all. :wow:
people worked harder and had more stress back in the day

yall spend too much time on the internet

life is easier now than its ever been

And I used to get carded well into my 30’s

I'm late 30s and still get carded sometimes :russ:

Probably helps that I have dreads, little to no gray hair, and am relatively thin (not frail tho). Plus I've always been a computer nerd and don't really go out in the sun all that often, so no wrinkles that I can see.

If dude shaved/trimmed his beard and got some locs or something he'd easily look his age. Dude got a full hairline no greys and no real wrinkles. Lowkey I think he intentionally trying to make himself look older on some going viral shyt.
His whole style gives off “maturity” and “older people wisdom” He be out here helping people, one of my favorite people on the internet. I could’ve sworn he was like an old school English teacher or some shyt lol
