You look good for your age

Today while Henry and I were setting the table for dinner he was asking me about wigs. He was wondering if men and women really wore wigs "back in the olden times". I explained that it was the fashion and anyone who was anyone wore one. (I mean, isn't that right? I am assuming it is since that's what they tell me in the movies.) Henry then asked me when this fad was in vogue. When I told him it was during the 1700's and 1800's he seemed surprised. Then he said, "So they wore wigs when Dad was a kid?".
