As per my hairdresser, I am too old to have a streak of a crazy color in my hair. I asked for that, and she said very directly, with no smile and awkwardness or harshness, "No, that's for younger people." It didn't upset me. I found it funny (maybe the way she stated it like a certain fact, like the sky being blue) and reflected that my job might have an issue with it. I like to let hairdressers do what they wish with me anyway
