Too Old to Have Red Hair? Reddit Stories on Aging & Confidence

October 10, 2025

We’re kicking off a brand-new series on the How to be a Redhead Podcast — diving into real Reddit conversations and community debates about life as a redhead.


Each week, we, Adrienne and Stephanie, your co-founders at How to be a Redhead, will explore what people are saying online, share our own perspectives, and bring in insights from the redhead community.


In this first episode, we’re talking about some of the most common questions and myths around red hair:


  • Is there ever an age when you’re “too old” for red hair?
  • Is red dye as high-maintenance as people claim?
  • And what does psychology reveal about how society perceives red hair compared to other colors?


From confidence to upkeep to social perceptions, this episode is all about celebrating red hair at every stage of life. Whether you’re naturally red, dyeing for the first time, or just curious about how hair color shapes identity, you’ll find something here. Subscribe now to join the conversation each week as we uncover more Reddit debates and community stories about red hair.
