[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.

I only have one question.
WHY?
Is your job appearance-focused? Otherwise, I honestly don't understand why a suburban middle-aged woman would do all that. Vanity? Poor self-esteem?
The hard truth is, [b]nobody cares about your 'great hair and flawless skin'. :roll: [/b][/quote]

NP. You obviously do.[/quote]
