Re: Is 40 too old to wear a french braid?

CatsyCline · ‎07-24-2013

my .02 is the french braid is a "young"look. it all depends on how your face appears in profile . if you have a nice profile then go for it. the style is not so flattering if you have a lax chin and neck line.

If you can put your hair in a French braid, then do it. Don't give another thought to what others think.

@CritterKeeper Your whole look sounds like it was perfect for warm weather & quite lovely.

years ago, a wonderful woman told me that when we look good, a criticism given is very often driven by jealousy.

so you just wear your lovely French braid, know you are looking good & be sure not to let those "negative nellies" take your light! 🙂

@CritterKeeper 40 is young!

That is a really dumb comment! and rude! and probably from an older very conventional from another generation lady or someone younger who was just a tad jealous!

And now MY opinion lol is I think a french braid is so elegant and pretty and if I could do one, I would wear it too!

40?! I wouldn't even think 60 is too old for this classic style. It's a pretty, more face-framing way to wear the hair back.

I am so sick of the "too old for" mentality. If you feel you're too old for it and you'd therefore be insecure, fine. But don't knock people who like a certain hairdo/color/clothing style because of their age.
