    There's a huge difference between some enhancement of what already exists and implantation, eg,false hair, nails, breasts!
    I've enhanced, I've not falsified.
  • Definitely low maintenance! How do you guys find the time for all of that?! I wear minimal makeup for work just to hide the bags under my eyes from having been on call the night before, but apart from that...
    - pale and interesting!
    - boobs small, perky and mine (one pierced)
    - hair cut once a year? Own colour.
    - nails: long nail beds but cut fairly short. Don't wear false nails
    - legs only get defuzzed for special occasions. I don't like the way they feel when they're bald. Pits when I remember, bits, not for about 5 years!
    - pluck my monobrow
    - one capped tooth that I broke when I was little.
    - never had a massage, manicure or pedicure. Probably should when I get married as my feet are pretty calloused.
    - oh, I do blowdry my hair but it's short so that doesn't take long.

    My workplace actually discourages a lot of 'grooming' which is pretty good for me!
    Married Ajichombo on 17th April 2010 :j
  • I have natural hair colour and i love it
    I dont use fake tan as i can never get rid of the tango'ed look even tho i do all the things suggested lol
    I pluck my eyebrows
    shave the rest^^
    wear minimal make up on a daily basis, and more when im going out
    teeth are my own , luckily quite white and straight
    i dont have nice nails, had extensions in the past ,but now my job doesnt really let me get away with long nails
    i have large F cup boobs which are my own :P
  • hmm never ever thought of this lol here goes

    shave all my bits
    die hair
    wear clip in hair extensions ( i have very fine crap hair )
    very rarly leave the house without a full face of makeup
    spray tan just on my legs
    teeth are my own
    and have never plucked my eyebrows
    just about to have acrylic nails done for the first time this week

    Acrylic nails
    Always wear full make up,
    Pedicure monthly
    Hair colour 4/5 weeks
    Cut and blow monthly
    Eyebrow shape wax, tint every 4/6 weeks
    fake tan in summer
    Wax
  • I wear make up most days...get spots so don't have the confidence to not to, oh how i would love to rush out the door of a morning with a smear of tinted moisturiser and lipbalm...sigh!
    I shave body/bits
    Dye my hair
    Pluck my eyebrows

    That's about it...boring huh. I wear fake eyelashes very occasionally for special occasions.haven't worn them for about 2 years though...too fiddly. I had a go with fake tan and am not very skilled...although i can be known to splash on a bit of summerskin if i have to revel any flesh *shudders*

    You can be "common" with then then, with our acrylic nails. I have acrylics with a gel top, a combo of the two, they are fab - indestructible;)

    Is that the same as dye?
  • ohhhh im plain to what some of you do!!!!!

    wear make up on occasions (ill use bronzer if i have a breakout)
    hair coloured 2-3 times per year
    do my own hair extensions
    spray tan on occasions

    i use no creams or anything on my face, just mild soap and water
    de-fuzz as and when needed (everywhere)
    dont excercise (although school run is and hours walk)
    eat what the hell i want:T , size 10:T.

    thats it.

    if i could change anything i would get a tummy tuck. i have horrendous stretch marks (thanks DD) and a jelly belly. my weight is usually around the 91/2-10 stone mark, but i ballooned to 15 STONE pregnant.

    ive always been like this and OH loves it, he hates the `plastic` looking girls and loves me for me.

    i would love to be able to afford to do more things and also have the time to do them but im happy as i am.

    i make it up on clothes tho:p
