[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that I’m 40 I wonder this a lot! If you look back even further the hairstyles that women had even in their teens and 20s were soooo aging. I think media has increased people’s awareness of what you can look like and therefore made people more aspirational. [/quote] Yes! The hairstyles! Did middle aged women in (certain parts of the U.S.) always look haggard, worn and old? Did women in (certain other parts of the U.S.) always look "overdone"? It seems to be more than just what was "fashionable" or "in style", but instead the lifestyle and diet, and exposure to high fashion. With the invention of television - all the way through the invention of social media, communications and media has always played a part, but to what degree? How much of it is the women wanting to take care of themselves or caring about what they look like or not? Is the latter overblown with social media? Are we wanting to look to young, at the risk of ....not?[/quote]
