No, they didn't ask, plus it would be illegal for them to. However, I started turning gray in my 20's. For a while I had a nice streak that was pretty attractive against my dark hair, and at 20 or 30 people can tell it's premature.
Now, the whole top of my head is mostly silver-gray, with a few strands of dark, and the remainder of a grocery-store-dye job that hasn't grown out all the way. It is very obvious that I'm no spring chicken. In fact, I probably look older than I am when you factor in the ravages of time. I would have dyed it again, but it was either gas money or dye money, so I chose gas.
I figured, why would they hire a 52 year old? The stuff I know, the other interviewees probably know (stats and stuff), plus they have more energy, a greater life expectancy, and likely will have fewer health problems (that's the thinking, tho I'm pretty healthy), etc.
I'm always happy to give dinosaur info!
