Wear whatever you darn well please!
Don't let someone's comment second guess your confidence and what pleases you.

To which I would have replied - 'At least I know good manners are ageless'.
I'm sure you looked adorable and HEAVENS do NOT let ANYONE tell you how to wear your hair (or skort etc.)!

We all hear a lot of silly WT* things, but that's really silly, IMO. A braid is neat & tidy, great for hot weather, and somewhat sophisticated. Maybe they couldn't handle all that ;-)

Listen, I am 65 years old and have thick brown, wavy hair to my waist. My hair is my "crowning glory". I would wear a french braid if I could do it.(I have watched Youtube videos but still can't do it). I DO wear my hair up, in a side ponytail, in a bubble side pony, 3 strand braid, and several other styles. I love the versatility of long hair. I get many compliments on my hair, but even if I didn't, it's what I like. So-my dear, wear your french braid with pride!!!!

I honestly haven't seen anyone with a french braid in I don't know how long. It seems everyone I see is wearing those fishtail braids.
I myself have always loved a french braid and had my hair in a french braid for my senior prom.
I don't think one is ever too old for this. Pig tails maybe but a french braid, no. And even IF I thought someone was too old for something, I'd never say anything to them. How rude.

ITA! This made me lol and think that maybe your helpful friend is jealous that your hair is long enough to WEAR in a french braid.

I don't think there's an age limit for this. If your hair can be styled this way, go for it!
