Stellar extinction tracks as a function of stellar age, binned by final mass. Lines represent the median values of stars in the mass bin, with colors corresponding to the final stellar mass in Figure 1. There is a clear trend with when a stars begins to decrease in ﹩\widetilde{{A}_{{\rm{V}}}}﹩ and the final mass of the star, as well as how long it takes that star to become un-embedded.
