My 74th year selfie.

WYSIWYG. No photoshop. No makeup. Oversized funky glasses.

74a

I have some good genes from my mother — wrinkling is slight, but there are some deep gravity-pulled lines.

I have some bad genes from my mother — losing hair around the hairline. Bangs are the answer. And a better hairstyle, but I haven’t found one that I like. And then I have to find a hairdresser who can cut it.

Onward into my 75th year.

  1. That’s a very fine hairstyle. I am printing your picture and taking it to my hairdresser. We make “do” with what we have.

  2. Well, thanks for the compliment. As I said, so much is genetic. It’s certainly not that I’ve lived a good clean life!!! I colored my own hair up until about seven years ago and then decided that gray hair was kind of cool and I wanted to assert my real age. The one thing I noticed was that my hair had a lot more body when I colored it. Oh well everything is a trade-off.
