What's the most extreme thing you did for vanity's sake? email this discussion to a friend?

I really can't think of the most extreme thing I have done because for me "extreme" would invole a lot of money and I am not the type who'd spend a lot just for the sake of vanity. But, that does not mean I am not vain..I actually think I am.hehehe. The problem though is that I ask other people to spend for me..lol..There was the time when I asked my sister to buy a treadmill and I told her she needed it when in fact I wanted it for myself (now I got a treadmill for free hehe).. I also get my beauty products from her, I share with her everything she buys. Having said that, maybe the most extreme thing I did (and still doing) is forgetting my pride just so I can stay pretty and in shape. lol

You? What have you done for vanity and beauty's sake?

I color my hair and workout in the gym. I used to compete but I am too old for that now.

I have always dreamed of having a well-formed body but I am just scared if it will look good on me..

Well I think the most extreme thing I did for beauty was to take growth balls. Well I am on the short side and when you are in high school looks always matter. So I saved around 200 bucks from my allowance and bought those growth balls from this home tv shopping channel. I should have known that it doesn't work. Just a waste of hard saved allowance. Well nowadays I am very much confortable with mmyself.

lol I remember those days hehhe..I used to ask my father to buy me growth pills but eventually I stopped because I think nothing's happening..I haven't taken anything for about 2-4 years already and it's not because I have grown out of getting taller but actually because I am still on the process of researching for the best one out there. WHen I find it, i'll be sure to buy it haha..

When I was younger I would wear shoes that hurt my feet and belts that were too tight. Neither one of those things is really healthy.

I remember my college days. SInce we had no uniform, we go to school with casual clothes and I dont want to wear the same clothes over and over again or at least in 2 weeks. What I did was plan all my clothes every single day. I never want people to notice that I have worn the same shirt or dress already..that was all I cared in college haha


myLot reputation of 98/100. calai618 (678)   ranked 341 out of 2,515 in beauty  3 weeks ago

I was so obsessed with dressing up that I even wear my sister's clothes or clothes when I was younger..they aren't comfortable but who cares? I need as much clothes as possible..haha..

Hi savypat!
I am sorry about that..
But I don't really think that's vanity at all. I mean, I believe there's nothing wrong with wanting back something important you had. It's like wanting to have an artificial leg when you don't have a leg. It's not as if you're asking more or too much. You just want to have something you previously had because it's a part of you missing...

lol LOL, well I don't really wish to take extreme measures for vanity's sake. To me, those are things like cosmetic procedures and surgeries. I did color my hair a few times and didn't like the results, so I'm just leaving it be!

Extreme for me is wearing a push-up bra and some makeup lol.

Believe it or not, I haven't colored my hair eversince! It's not because I didn't want it but because my mom kept on scaring me that I'd just ruin my natural hair..I am now not bothered with not coloring my hair.. I am not interested about it anymore..

calai618 I guess if we are woman at all we all do some things for vanity, I as a senior citizen do put on lipstick and eyeshadow every day just so I do look well kept, not really vain just want to look my best as I feel better when I look my best.
I think if we did not care about our looks,we would be in a state of deep depression. happyhappythumbup


myLot reputation of 98/100. calai618 (678)   ranked 341 out of 2,515 in beauty  3 weeks ago

That's a very good point. We do most of these stuff not beccause we are vain but we just want to be presentable. We just want to show that we love and take care of our selves.

I think we all have our vanities. We just differ in the extent of it. Well, I'm not much of the heavy make up type of girl but I would have to say, the most extreme would be my tattoos.

I work out, too, but I think my tattoos top that off.

I don't think I have ever done anything that extreme. I did buy some clip in hair extensions the last time I went to Las Vegas though. I had won some money and I saw the stand and the guy put them in my hair at a mall we were at and I liked them so much I paid $600 for them right there on the spot, it was all money I had won so it was not like I went in to debt to buy them or anything, but I am sure that $600 could have been used some where else. Once I got home I never really wore them again, but I did where them the whole time I as in Las Vegas. It is amazing how much attention guys pay to women with really long hair.


myLot reputation of 98/100. calai618 (678)   ranked 341 out of 2,515 in beauty  3 weeks ago

i recently saw this hair extension at ebay and am actually planning to get one for myself hehe..I just hope guys don't think i am doing this for them lol..I hope it's clear to guys out there that when girls keep themselves presentable and beautiful, it doesn't always mean it's for them heheheh

myLot reputation of 98/100. calai618 (678)   ranked 341 out of 2,515 in beauty  3 weeks ago
