How much do you spend on hair and nails?

Paint my own nails with normal polish, with base and top coat they will last around 10 days before I notice a bit of flaking at the sides. Never chips.

Hair trimmed with blow dry every two months, £55 (long and thick and I’m there a good hour).

Dye it myself, pretty close to natural colour to cover quite a lot of grey. I stock up when it’s two for £15. I do that every eight weeks or so. I can push it to 10 weeks but I feel really untidy by then.

I had lash extensions once, new client offer £30. Loved the first set but the infills looked like she’d done them in the dark, they were awful and actually painful. I soaked them off myself after about two days.

Zero. My adult dc cuts my hair every 6 weeks. No colour. No nails.

Approx one haircut a year, can be longer. That’s about 65 quid. Once I do decide I want a haircut though, I want it there and then. I lack patience.

Nothing on nails. Don’t think they even been painted by me since I was about 5.

I get my hair done every 4-5 weeks and it costs between £40-£80 depending on what needs doing. It’s coloured and sometimes it just needs roots and others the colour putting thru.

nails I only get done for special occasions, having them done next week for Christmas. I get gel polish which lasts about 3 weeks and is £35

Haircut/blow dry and root colour at a friend’s salon, every 6-8 weeks, £80 so around £500/year. I have dark, very thick shoulder length hair that needs keeping in check!

Nails once a year at Christmas for dark short gels as a treat, £40.

Products from the supermarket/sulphate free shampoo from Amazon.

£35 every three or four months at the local hair salon for a dry cut; nothing on nails.
I've never liked manicures but I used to have expensive hair cuts when I lived close to a really good salon. Now there isn't one, I've grown my hair long and have a trim when it needs it. Put it up for special occasions.

I can’t have my nails down due to my job but I have a kit at home and do my own when I have some time off work so zero spent.

hair - have roots touched up and trim every 2/3 months or so. Probably have some highlights or foils maybe once a year. Typical visit is around £60-£70

Nothing - I cut my own hair (curly) and just cut my nails with nail clippers.

Nails - none as I am allergic to some of the stuff nail bars use. Then doesn't matter if I use base coat, decent nail polish and top coat, it flakes off with 24 hours.

Hair - £25 for a wash, cut and blow dry every 5 weeks.

About £300 per quarter on my hair - this includes roots once a month and then cut/balayage colour every 3 months.

I do my own Gel nails because I enjoy doing it and I think acrylics/false nails look horrific.

I'm going for brown eyelash extensions next week, never had my eyelashes done before and that's costing me £45 so that might be another added 'beauty' expense!

I wax and tint my own eyebrows!

Nails I do myself at home with my gel lamp, tend to change them every week. Initial cost of the lamp etc was around £150 but very minimal ongoing costs.

Hair is £150 every 8 weeks - half head highlights, toner, cut & blow dry on long, thick hair.

Eyebrows £6 every 3 weeks for threading and approx £250 every 2-3 years for microblading.

Highlights, roots and cut are £250, then £100 every 8/10 weeks for roots and cut and blow dry. My lights tend to last a year, just ask them to do a toner treatment now and again. Caution though, please invest in a good salon/hair colourist/stylist, it's worth paying more sometimes. I can't be arse with getting my nails done, so just get some decent ish polish from the high street and paint them myself. I love getting my lashes done but I don't have enough time to maintain them at the minute (£50 for full set, cheaper for refills). I would love to get my brows done professionally too, I'm a teen of the 90s/00s when thin was in 🤣 I wish I had more time in my week to commit to regular treatments.

Hair £125-140 every 3 months for a cut and highlights.

Gel nails and toes done usually twice a year for holidays @ £50

30 every 3 weeks for nails and roots 30 every 3 weeks and the 6th week it is 60.

Have dark hair and grey roots, and it costs alot to look very natural.

Likely go grey once I've given up work.

I do my own nails.

Hair cut is about £60, highlights around £100

The real rip off is the dental hygienist - £84 where I go! Pre covid it was £28 for 20 minutes. Now I pay £84 for 30 minutes but she only needs 20 minutes. That is one heck of an increase.

Hair cut and colour is £68 every 6 weeks.

Nails cost fuck all, I trim and file them myself and don't like nail polish, so keep them natural.

I have 2 pedicures a year though, in the summer when my toenails are on display.

£70 every three months or so for a haircut. I deep condition it myself every few weeks.

I do my own nails (toes and fingers) - file and polish - every week or so. A couple of times a year I get a full manicure, pedicure and polish (just normal polish) - about £80.

I do my own eyebrows (ie plucking and shaping) as and when needed.

Paint my own nails

Hair is £110 every 9-12 months

Yes mine rarely chips and if it does it's because I've normally caught myself with the veg peeler! I've actually gone over 5 weeks before and although the length was unbearable they were still in pristine condition. Normal gel on the other hand I'm lucky to make it 5 days without it chipping, my mums gel looks perfect even after 3 weeks but I have never got on with it.

Highlights worked when I was younger but now I need a full colour I do it myself. I get a cut every 4/5 months maybe?
Nails once a year before Christmas and it costs 30 pounds.

However if you'd like to treat yourself do. It's definitely a nice feeling!

I get acrylics done maybe 4/5 times a year. €20-25 a pop. Highlights & cut maybe 3 times a year..€120 every time.
I get random blowdrys whenever I’m going out or somewhere important €25 (That’s not very often!)

For those who get gel/biab every 3/4 weeks do you find it lasts without chipping for that whole time?

Usually about €180-€200 every 3 months for a full head of highlights and possibly a cut if it’s needed. But I go more regularly at busier times like December so tend to spend a bit more then. For nails, I only get a gel polish for occasions holidays and Christmas and it’s €35 each time I think. I might get them done about 8-10 times a year.

Never had my nails “done”.
