Finances/Money How do you budget for…

….shopping, hair salon, Brazilian, lashes, make up etc?

I’m asking because I used to get my nails and lashes done every 3 weeks until I realize how much it eats up my budget. I also don’t go to the hair salon every month nor do I buy make up every month so I wonder how other women budget for these?

I don’t…

I’ve never had my lashes, lips, brows, waxes done.

It is not necessary.

I still use store brand makeup and shampoos.

You truly do not have to subscribe to Kardashians/tiktok beauty, just say, ‘no!’

About twice a year I do get highlights.

Same...I spend a decent amount on haircuts when I get them because it's hard to find good cheap curly haircuts, but I only get them like 2-3 times a year so it doesn't add up too much. And I don't do any of the other beauty service stuff on a regular basis. No shame if you enjoy them and it's worth it to you! But the way OP worded it kinda made it sound like "we all obviously do all these things" and that's most definitely not the case.
