[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I have above average grooming and hygiene. Oil massage and shower every day. Lotion and skin treatments daily. Organic home made body scrub once a week. Hair color and highlight every three weeks. Gloss and hair mask or treatment every week. Haircut every three week. Hair styled every day. Microdermabrasion - once a week Full body sugaring as needed. - once in two weeks Pedicure once a week. Hot wax treatment for hands, feet, elbow and knees - every week Facial and manicure - once a week. I do not keep long nails or fake nails. My nails are cut short and my nail polish is a very light nude polish. I give myself hot wax treatment. Dental - Cleaning twice a year. Brush, water pik, gargle - twice a day. Oil pulling - once daily. At 55, I have flawless skin and great hair. I take around 1-2 hours on a weekend night to take care of hair, wax, facial, mani-pedi, microdermabrasion and hot wax treatment. I have been doing this since my 20s. I do all my treatments at home and I also make many of my lotions, treatments and my wax at home. I also have been cutting my short pixie cut hair at home since the pandemic. I don't have a problem when women get professional treatments like Botox or fillers etc. I have never tried it mainly because of cost and time. The one time slot that works for me is when the household has winded down at night and I can do everything that I need to do for myself in 1-2 hours. I cannot imagine doing everything that I need to get done at a commercial salon in the middle of the day without inconveniencing my family. It helps that I have experience and some training to do all of these treatments on my own. [/quote] You get a microdermabrarasion once a WEEK? :shock: [/quote] Yes. I have a home machine that I love. I use it on my face, neck, chest. I do one area every week, so it has time to recover. You can choose the strength that you want by using the home machine. No, I do not go to a salon for this. After the treatment it soaks up any lotion, serum etc that you put on your face. You can completely skip using makeup if you want. Oh, also it goes without saying but protect yourself from sun, I only expose myself to morning or evening sun. [/quote] Those machines don't work. I would suggest going to a doctor once every six weeks for real microdermabrasion and an IVF every three months in fall and winter instead. If you go and get a pedicure at a good place it lasts 3-4 weeks too. You must be really hairy if you need to sugar every 1-2 weeks, yikes! [/quote] What a mean post. How long can you go between leg waxes or whatever? I use an epilator and I have to do it a few times a week, because hair grows back at different rates. This lady has taken time to share all this info, why be so rude to her?[/quote]
