Same here. Once I stopped coloring my hair, people never doubted my age…

Had the same problem, now I’ve got a touch of grey hair at my temples and it has helped immensely.
I got carded for alchohol up into my late 30s.

You’re supposed to be carded if you look under 40, so late thirties isn’t that surprising

It’s only if you look under 25 here…

Same - growing a beard helped massively too.
Once I started working, I used to grow a beard every winter - mainly because I got bored with shaving every day. I noticed that once I had my beard, I never got age-checked, when I shaved it off, I’d still be asked.
Mind you, I’ve had a beard for eleven years now - who knows how haggard I look underneath nowadays!
