Self maintenance in 2014

8 replies

Frannieknickers · 27/12/2013 16:55

This year I've really let myself go. 2014 I plan to turn this round but I need your help with planning!! How often should I:

  1. Have hair cut?
  2. Have things waxed?
  3. Have a mani/pedi?
  4. Have a facial?
  5. Have I missed anything?

Aiming for a more polished me where I don't get to 3 months after any of above need doing and then can't get an appointment?

Thanks!

Hair every 6 weeks. Brows I have waxed every 5 weeks . Nails : I bad at ; so no advice. I think nails important but mine weak. So I focus on hair and brows which give structure to face. I also get good bras as think effect how look! Good luck and enjoy!

I have a haircut every 6 weeks. I have short hair though, when it was longer it didn't need cutting so often.

I have my eyebrows waxed, facial, mani and pedi every 8 weeks.

I cut my hair once a year. My brows don't need waxing. My nails grow fast and are very strong.

I'm a very poorly maintained woman!!

I don't get my hair cut often,it's long and curly and I have lots of it.Having it cut is a pain in the bum!

I pluck my brows but seem to have forgotten what shape I used to do them Blush so may go for waxing.

Facial wise,I used to have monthly facials a couple of years ago.For Christmas I bought myself a salon facial kit and will now be having a facial (DIY) every week for the sum of £20.95!!!

Never had a manicure or pedicure.Nails are easy to look after at home

Triptrap do you have a link to the facial kit please?

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 27/12/2013 23:59

Yep,here you go! I got the calming as I wanted it for christmas lol they do others depending on skin type.Been using it already and love love love it.So nice to have that relaxing and freshing feeling on your skin at home (and it smells lush too!)

Hair done once every 8-12 weeks (book all my appointments for the year in one go)
Brows as and when
Facial once in a blue moon
Do my own nails at home Smile

I only have my hair cut about 3-4 times a year, although I think it was twice in 2013. Pluck eye brows every couple of weeks (before laser it was 1-2 a week) I do my nails once a week and toenails once a month. I dont have facials but exfoliate lightly in the shower each morning and pile on the moisturiser, does the trick.
