I’ve been told that my grey hair was a serious turn-off and made me look “old and creepy” so this is a pleasant aspect for once.

Fwiw there are people out there who think grey hair is pretty. I am under 40 and I find grey hair on people my age to be incredibly attractive.

Where are these people??? Haha I’ve never heard of that. I’m in my early 30s and it’s definitely a sticking point with a lot of people

Jesus, what kind of fucked up person seriously says that to someone out of the blue?

[-] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Wasn’t quite out of the blue but came up in conversation about hair 🙃

If people think that and can't see how dumb that is, they aren't worth your time. Hair color does not define a personality. Lol.

Have you tried offering them pierogi? Can't be creepy giving out free pierogi.

[-] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

True. Giving individual perogis out by hand probably will ease their worries.

So?! How did it go?

I've been greying since high school, does that mean my body has been fighting cancer since that early? That makes me worry more compared to people who start greying in their 40s and such.
