How is it that Gothel barely aged while Hook aged and was an old man before transforming into a young man again by Lady Tremaine? Shouldn't she be an old woman too?

She intends at the end of the episode to go after Rapunzel, so if LT is Rapunzel, Gothel could have taken away her magical hair and used it to keep her youth.
