Key is you check your own white hairs already? When all the white hairs conquer the black hairs means time to meet the Maker soon.
You realized you are old when the kids in the neighbourhood wished you "Ah Pek, chow ann" when they see you in the morning. Or, those old cashier aunties at FairPrice and Sheng Siong addressed you as "uncle". ..  Big Grin

A few white hairs still dun feel old yet, so I pulled them out. Then after another couple of years, I saw more white hairs but still dun feel old, so I dyed my hairs. Only when those neighbourhood kids called me "ah pek" then I gave up camouflaging my age. ..... Big Grin

Dye hair is for hair on top of your head. Below banana hair, nostril hair, moustache hair cannot dye correct?

Call Uncle by primary kids still not so
but when 20s call uncle. We know tian ming.
 
Ah pek is reserved for those look 65 & above for now
but next generation England speaking, so use up to Uncle only...
One aunty cashier around 60 I guess, so
When I address her as 小姐,I got very good service.. Can see from her expression, she was overjoyed.

Nobody called me Uncle. Cashier, service staff, retail staff, car washers, etc all called me Boss.

I guess it's the way I carried myself..

You get called Uncle if you slouch and drag your feet. That's a low ses posture.  Rolleyes
White hair is wisdom
Live ripe old age.
