What are your thoughts on getting old? Do you want to look your age (grow old gracefully) or do you want to look young forever? I want to be 50 looking 30! I'll be investing in surgeries unless I can figure out how to be wrinkle free!!:)

I would want to look old but still look young in a way hahaha if that makes sense! I want to be active instead of lazing around all day doing nothing, so I want to feel young.

I'd rather look happy with myself than try to fight. I think in with Constance. You want your soul to show youth.

I'd rather look my age. I'm not trying to be 20, 40 years from now. And I don't want a fake face either. Face lift, neck lift, breast lift. naw, I'd rather give that money to charity. What's the point? Lol who am I trying to impress at 60? I know who I am, my age or how I look is so irrelevant.

This is actually a great question. I'm not really sure haha. I mean I don't want look old! I guess I just want to look really good for my age! Lol. I don't want to let myself go. I'll definitely try to stay fit and in shape. And of course still do hair, makeup, jewelry, nice clothes, etc. I think no matter what age, you should always be polished and well groomed.

I want to look my age, which is a big reason I don't color my hair. However I think its important to still take care of your skin and stuff.
@nala I completely agree!! I feel like my body is this way for a reason and not meant to be changed. Instead, just enhanced by majeip

Of course you should try to be healthy and work towards having healthy skin as you age, yet you can't dwell on the fact that as you age your body, skin, and hair changes.

I'm ok with aging...it all comes back to it being denied to some so I will gladly embrace my wrinkles and sagging and will rock grey hair :)

I want to be just like my grandma, she takes care of her body and teeth and hair, she still uses makeup and jewerly, but the most important thing.. she's really classy and elegant. So yeah, I think she's my role model hahaha and we are a lucky family cause we all look younger than we are :)

There's a difference between aging naturally and try to reverse time. I'm definitely going to stay in shape, keep my hair nice, etc. I'm not saying turn 30 and act like my life is already over. I just don't want to spend my time trying to be something I'm not for people who could care less.

I'm only 16/17 but I amTERRIFIED of aging. I am a verrrry wrinkle scared person(if that's a word haha) and I remember staying inside, away from the sun one summer when I was 14 so I wouldn't get wrinkles. That was a little dramatic, I know haha... The thought of turning 25/30 makes me want to cry, I never want to age and I'm never getting wrinkles. That's why Peter Pan is one of my favorite Disney movies:-)

I've had the plan since I was twelve (still planning on doing it) that I'm going to dye my grey hair crazy colors (:

Well I am (gasp) 35 now and although I am not afraid of growing older and looking older, I do want to look as good as possible for my age. My mother was a little bit of a sun goddess when I was young - I remember her always laying out and taking us to the beach. She is only 60 now and her skin is (sorry mom) totally hit! Wrinkles, sunspots galore and sagging a lot too. So knowing that I have her genes, I am trying my best to take great care of myself and my skin. I always wear Sunscreen and I exercise and eat well. I have done peels (GA and TCA) but I don't think I would ever do surgery. As far as impressing anyone, I have a pretty smoking hot man who would love me no matter what I look like, but I don't ever wanna look mismatched on his arm if you know what I mean. I think it's all about taking good care of yourself and trying to be as healthy as you can be, and that in itself usually shows through!

I'd rather look my age. I wouldn't waste money on Botox and stuff like that. What's the point? Everyone grows old, it's inevitable. And it'll eventually make you look worse than before. I'm not tryin to act 20 when I'm 60.😏

I am petrified of getting old because I do not want to be living in a room all day long taking medication and being a potato.
Wrinkles? Who cares... but being sick and old because of horrible life choices? Yeah.. main pusher for the way I eat now.
I see my mom 55 and running 5 miles a day like nothing, while we have a medicine cabinet full of pills for my dad.
Thats what scares me the most.
