More to See
It was quite interesting to hear what you had to say about ageism in the beauty industry. If you think it’s bad when you are 38, it is WAY worse when you are 60+ as I am. Even though I am told I look younger ((I have been mistaken for my grand daughter’s mother on several occasions) and I take care of my skin etc and obviously wear makeup, in some beauty shops the MUA’s just don’t want to know you – I am looking at you Mecca Maxima in Melbourne, sometimes Priceline, sometimes at department stores’ beauty counters. It is like you are not there. And you are quite correct about how an older person has more disposable income to spend on beauty and skincare products.
On a separate note, I am really pleased that your trip to Indiana and beyond worked out so well for you and your family. It’s great to catch up – I did that recently with my relatives in another state and it was fabulous too.
Spending several hours in a hair salon would not be fun. But some colours are hard to work with too. Anyway, your hair looks lovely.
