For example, my classmate is 38 and has no gray hairs at all. I don't even remember if she got this gift from her father or mother. My friend is also around 40, has no wrinkles, and her skin looks like she's 20. And she barely does any skincare. She has beautiful legs and nails to match. I was lucky with my hair thickness and skin elasticity: I didn't get any stretch marks during all my pregnancies, although my hips were covered in them when I was 15. I haven't had any critical illnesses either, so I consider that a bonus too. On my father's side, everyone lived long lives, stayed active until the very end, and were quite lucid.

I'm turning 43 in a week and I don't have a single gray hair either.

Before I got sick, I had thick, beautiful hair. And clear skin, a mind for math, and innate grammar skills. But illness changed things.

I'm 36 and have been going gray since I was 17... My natural hair is dark, but since I was 25, I've had an allergy to any dark pigment, so I lighten it. If I don't lighten it now, my whole head would be gray, and at my temples, there's no dark hair left at all, it's all white) Genetics 🤷️
I guess I got lucky with hair thickness.

Many things: tall stature, good build, nice hair, intelligence.

No stretch marks, no excess weight, only a few gray hairs appeared after 40, and my teeth are all there. No major health issues.

Agapitova Anya Intelligence is a personal achievement, although upbringing also played a role.
But genetically, it's complicated.

Easier to say what you *didn't* get lucky with.
Plus, I don't even know half of my genetics.

Agapitova Anya I disagree. You probably mean intelligence. I'm talking about cognitive abilities.

Tatyana Rubtsova On my husband's side, everyone goes gray really early. He's not completely gray yet, though. But his cousin is already totally gray at 40 and looks much older because of it.

Teeth. I'm 39 years old and have one filling. It was placed after a check-up during pregnancy. The tooth didn't bother me at all.
My grandmother didn't see a dentist until she was over 60.

They tell me I'm lucky to have nice legs... and that ten years at the gym have nothing to do with it 😆

But I think it's partly my own doing... and globally, it's nothing... I'm just ordinary..

Being lucky with genetics is when your dad owns a Swiss bank 😆

Anna Literacy and a mathematical mind are cool. 👍
But essentially, 'intelligence' is a bit of genetics and a lot of upbringing.

Tatyana Rubtsova I got it from my mom 🥲 She's 58, and her hair is completely white like snow.

Anna Okay. The ability to absorb information. My brother, for example, didn't have that. He achieved everything with difficulty. Studying came easily to me.

Agapitova Anya I'm talking about potential that is passed down, but whether it's realized depends on the environment (in childhood) and the person themselves.
Either way, it's awesome)👍
