This past week, someone thought I was still in high school (sometimes known as secondary school), but I’m actually at least ten years older.
I don’t care what they think since they are still in high school themselves, but I’m sure other people have thought I was that young (but didn’t say it out loud).
Other than growing a beard, what else can I (and other men) do to make ourselves (at least facially) look older?


Caring about how old people are or look is a young person’s game.
When you go “What? Of course I know today is Tuesday… Oh yeah you’re right, it is my birthday. Nah, just an early night for me.”, no one will think you’re a high schooler.
But style choices, posture, glasses and other accessories can make a difference as well.
Or just take thinning shears to your temples and crown, and go for a balding look.
