Hypno, I'm dead impressed with that! Fancy you booking in to such a swanky place and literally not worrying about the cost! Thats brill, actually - you seem to have managed the holidays for a while now, but treating yourself, no, not till really recently. I'm really pleased for you - with a regular schedule like this, the whole burnout thing really recedes into the distance.2023: the year I get to buy a car0

Having my eyebrows waxed was, for many years, my one treat.....but over the last three or four years has gone by the wayside and I have had to rely on the tweezers, but I am just not so good at that!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

I am having my eyebrows waxed just beforehand.....but that is only £7 - they did have the prices up for those things, just not for the hair stuff!!
Waxed? Like a car? Do they go shiny?
