What part of your appearance do you strive to maintain or spend the most time/money/energy on?

I always have nice nails. I do them myself. It takes a while (because I use gel) but I find it therapeutic - and I only have to do them every 3 weeks.

I mess with shaving and trimming a lot - I don't grow a ton of hair but where I do it's thick and curly and I usually just want it gone these days

Hair since I get a haircut every 2 months or so (ideally) and I splurge at the barber

There was a period where I didn't care but now, it's just having 2 showers a day using soap, then using deodorant (I used to not see a point in deodorant, just showers)
With clothes I'm still dressed for comfort but decent looking.

I do pay my hairdresser more than what I spend on other care and beauty items. But you just don't see it I guess. I learned to do my own makeup and since some time I found a consistent look that I want. A bit heavy and a bit more paint in my face than earlier. When I want to blend in to the crowd I just go 'nude' and nobody recognises me. Almost. :)
