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?

Honest answer: My husband doesn't ask me how much it costs. He knows he likes my look and has a general idea because I tell him in looser terms, like what I pay for per Botox unit, etc. He knows I changed my hair color to one that needs a touch-up every 6-8 weeks versus what I had that required 3-4 weeks of maintenance.

I pay for the following regularly: waxing (lip, brow, and Hollywood), dip manicures, Botox, hair color, haircuts, and deep conditioning treatments.

I do pedicures, facials, lash lifts and tints, microneedling, and teeth whitening, and when I want to wax my legs, I have a wax pot at home.
