goanmad how much did u pay for your eyebrows???? i have done a bit of research an i expect to pay around £170.

Hi Sharron. I paid £120 three and a half years ago. I then had a top-up for £99 18months later. They are still really dark and beautiful. The beautician who did them also gave me complementary semi-permanent eyeliner as I'd recommended her services to lots of other women. This also looked amazing but was quite painful so I allowed this to fade.

The company is West Midland based. I think I got a bargain. She now advertises at £145 which is still pretty good.

I had them done as I was about to undergo a big op and couldn't bear to be visited in hospital without my eyebrows drawn on.

No Diable...guys are very welcome. My BF's a fashionista too (well guys are always complementing him on his style and he's as much of a jumble sale/car boot and chazza shop dresser as me).

Morning all, this is such an interesting thread, sharonloves2spend I'll answer some of your questions

how did you loose weight???

Atkins, very very hard for the first few days and then becomes a way of life especially once you see the results I carried it on a bit too long and went to a size 6 which makes me look a bit drawn so now I'm a size 8 and happy with that. I never never eat rice pasta or bread no cake no biscuits. I have full fat everything and eat potatoes once every ten days or so, I eat all veg and sometimes fruit/dried fruit and I refuse to stop having chocolate, I have at least one bar a day, sugar has been the hardest thing to give up. I don't drink much anyway but if I want a drink I have one (or more;)). I never exercise.

and how did you get teeth done

I had 6 veneers across the top front teeth, these lasted about 12 months and then started to discolour so I went back to the dentist who crowned the same teeth instead. This is defiantly the best beauty treatment I have had. I have them cleaned every three months.

how much does it all cost to maintain it????

Not that much, its more time and skill than anything, thanks to mse I have found super cheap but brilliant fake tan my biggest expense is my hair extensions, I use Jessica Simpson clip in ones and they cost me about £40 inc p&p every 2-3 months, I cut/colour my own hair, make up is usually EL which lasts ages but I do buy cheaper brands as well. Dental work was a huge expense, all in all about £8,000 but worth every penny.

I'm still undecided about botox/fillers but wont rule it out.

I had semi permanent eyebrows and lip liner (natural shade) years ago, my friend was training and I was one of her 'models' it was nice but I found it faded very quickly, I didn't have it topped up but you will certainly need to if you get it done. Mine has now gone completely but as my eyebrows faded they went a strange ginger colour:rotfl:

Thank you glowgirl for taking the time to answer my very nosy questions!! I like the atkins thing, i need to shed about 1 stone before my hols in august, i may give it a go. I had my hair cut this morning, and my hairdresser cut me in a fringe, and i think it makes me look younger, i will see what friends think!! I've also had it dyed back nearer to my natural colour from a red. Need to colour it due to the grey hairs that are emerging.

Would love to here from all you other fashionista's how you keep yourselves styled.
