As to head hair - I HATE going to the hairdressers, it gives me more anxiety than going to the dentist!

I get that too... which I'm trying to figure out since the last time I was at the dentist I ended up in A&E.

Agree 100% with MissThang that there must be some kind of psychological link between shit hair and our profession  :-\

I hate all the small talk, and the fact I have NEVER had a good haircut with a "professional". The 2 best haircuts were 1) when I shaved it all off, and 2) when a friend's friend cut it in 1999. Sadly, my friend lost contact with her friend, so can't revisit her :(

Me too... My hairdresser now comes to me once a month, and for work I buy hairpieces for 'instant glam hair' coz I haven't got the patience to do it myself.

For everything else I get gel nails done every 3 weeks, toes every 5, lashes every 2,  had laser hair removal so don't need to bother with that every day thank god! And semi permanent eyeliner brows and lipliner which means I won't frighten clients in the morning for overnights!  Fake tan, Botox, fillers and going for 4 th boob job at Christmas... God I shall never be able to retire unless I earn beyonces money, ( if I stop all the maintenance I would be more like Susan Boyle)  ::)

I'm totally not high.maintenance. I look after myself, shave regularly, go to a good hairdresser, use good quality beauty products, and that's it. I always make sure I'm wearing sexy undies and most importantly exude sexual chemistry (or.so my clients say!)

Likewise!  My favourite part of the job is that I get to buy lots of lingerie!  ;D

Think lingerie shopping is the best kind of retail therapy ever...

Yes and I have soooo much lingerie, now I've lost weight (unintentionally) I may have to butmy some more! One thing I love about this job is wearing sexy lingerie and clothes and letting loose my inner hussy

Well since working I haven't really had much time to focus on my maintenance! At the moment I do my own hair extensions, like Paris purchased from china, faar cheaper and much better quality. Btw i had a really bad experience at a hairdressers when i was younger (i think there is definitely something there with the linking bad hair and this line of work!!!). I spend around ?50+ on makeup a month, I'm a bit of a product junkie so I am always buying toiletries which I never end up using. I take perfectil daily and I visit the gym at least 4x a week.
I would like to get my lashes done, a regular bikini wax (currently sporting a bad DIY hedge :-X), I want my teeth whitened and my brows tattooed.

Hair extensions, gel nails every 3 weeks, pedi every month, gym at least 5 times a week, new lingerie normally once a month at least, waxing when I remember/shaving every day if not, eyebrow tats biannually, and a truckload of makeup to cake over everything.

Can't wait to get away in January and unleash my inner hippy upon the world. Three months of absolutely NO beauty routine is going to be total bliss.

French Pedicure every four weeks. I love having that done! Eyebrow threading every four weeks.  Hairdesser twice a year for a trim. Can't be assed with extensions, colouring, etc.  Used to go to the gym thrice weekly but in the last couple of months I've let that slip - oops. Did experiment with stick-on lashes in the summer, looked great but it made my own lashes become thin and sparse, so I gave that up!

I am a bare minimum kinda gal. Only do what has to be done lol.

I have a full weave on that takes 4 hours and a ton of painkillers done every 4-6 weeks.
Eyebrows threaded every 2-3 weeks.
Nails are naturally long but get a 3 week manicure from Nails Inc. It is ?55 so a bit dear but worth it.
Shave everywhere as me and the wax don't get along.
Never been to the gym in my life and it is starting to show.

I recently had my eyelashes done at a place called Becca London in SW3 as I got a free certificate for my birthday. They look fab! But as I have quite oriental eyes and very curly eyelashes they are not lasting very well. All though my eyelashes have not been damaged.

That is all for work though. Most years I take 3 months off around Christmas time and head to Asia. Then the natural hair comes out, nose rings go back in and the inner me comes out. The one time I bumped into a client sitting next to him on the tube he totally didn't recognise me lol!

Thanks to PCOS I need to shave everyday or else I end up looking like a she-bear, especially at this time of year when the winter pelt starts growing in!

I have naturally curly hair down to my waist that needs washing every other day or looks like a haystack. I very rarely go to the hairdressers, even though I love having someone else wash my hair. I dread going because of the conversations (sorry to be stereotypical!)

her: so have you been watching x factor?
me : no sorry
her : who do you think will win Britain's got talent?
me: I don't watch it, I have no idea
her: oh ok... did you see what lady mimsy said on big brother last night?
me: no sorry, not really into reality tv
her: Oh..... can you believe santos pushed claudia down the stairs?
me: that's terrible! does she work here?
her: what? no! it's on the telly!
me: ok...

*no further attempts at conversation is made*

Thankfully the lady who waxes my eyebrows watches the same things as me, Walking Dead, Game of Thrones etc so when I'm in there every other week we have something to talk about!

Loved Game of Thrones!  Watched it ages ago... downloaded it when it was on TV in America.  Needs another watch methinks.

Anyway back on topic... need to find a decent beauty salon here.  Lived in the country once upon a time and loved getting nails, eyebrow wax and hot stones massage under the same roof.  Seems to me that in Glasgow you gotta traipse around a bit for it... or make appointments in super expensive places weeks in advance!  Or maybe I should just keep doing my own nails!

MissArcaBunny, I've had issues a few years ago (not PCOS though) and had to have a hospital procedure done and ever since then I've had to shave daily, too.  Really sucks, huh?  I go through so much moisturising lotion it's unreal... good job I'm rarely asked for a massage from a client since I use up all the lotion on myself lol.

I actually used to be a fitness nut, who didn't eat more than one meal a day and went to the gym every morning at 5am  :-X Then I got extremely ill and realised there was more to life than punishing myself with that kinda extreme lifestyle. I've since started doing bikram yoga, which has actually helped me keep a balanced weight - and a trim body, and now I just eat sensibly!
