Blonde Europeans with blue eyes seem to age more noticeably but why?

[Richmondbread]

This is interesting- Blondes are not the fairest- because their skin tone is often the most neutral. When I see the aging of White Europeans, Blonde women (usually blue eyed) seem to age the most noticeably to me. People with dark hair and fair skin seem to age less noticeably - and this is not necessarily Northern vs Southern Europe. I notice that quite a few Greeks age faster too and I-talians. The ones that age the best seem to be the non Hallstatt Germans and possibly some of the Darker Brits. I wonder why blondes age this way - maybe its because they have the contrast of the light hair with face , but it seems their skin shows more lines and wrinkles and sagging. What phenos age the best in Europe?

I think it might depend on sun exposure. People who spend too much time in the sun have faces that age faster.

Also depends In what European ethnic group we are talking about people from the British isles seem to the palest people on the planet specially the Irish.

But the caveat with this is pale doesn't necessarily age worse- in fact the blondes are not pale at all. They have the neutral skin tone that is right in the middle.

I think pale skin is worse for ageing?
Darker the skin better it would age.

There's a reason why the common phrase of "black don't crack " it's very popular lol

Blondes do not have pale skin, as I mentioned in the OP. Blondes actually have the most neutral skin tone. This is why it is ironic, because the fairest Europeans with dark hair age much better than blondes.

Perhaps they have thinner skin? Similar to how blonds tend to have thinner body hair, just a thought. Anecdotally I am 18 and dark blond with subtle forehead wrinkles already lol. Both my parents are dark brunet and have aged well, though they still have wrinkles, as is inevitable for their age.

Actually true. But you shouldn't do artificial tanning. That mean nothing. And aged you badly

Maybe lot of skin care would help.

Some pale women have aged nicely. And look like milf.

I think. Flaws are more noticeable on pale skin?
Look how noticable freckles look. Through many pale women hide it with makeup. But wrinkles are different from freckles. Harder to hide.
Flaws like wrinkles for example. On dark like dark brown skin
They would be way less noticeable.

Well that's something I don't worry because I'm already tan myself.
