    Default Just stopped caring...

    I don't know why but i've just stopped caring about my looks.

    I havn't been tanning... I havn't been getting my nails done... I havn't been getting pedicures, hell I havn't even really been doing my eyebrows.

    I don't know why but I just stopped giving a fuck.

    Hell when I get up to do a lunch show(around noon) I shower and throw my hair in a wet braid and throw minimal makeup on.

    Its not because im burnt out... im not really. I just for some reason stopped caring about my physical appearance.

    I need to get myself motivated to start putting time into my appearance again...

    Anyone else go through these phases?

    I do this when not working (vacations.)

    If your eyebrows are anything like mine, you better tweeze that stuff, at least. I would look like Grover from "Sesame Street" if I lost my tweezers.

    I try to keep my eyebrows tamed lol. If I didn't it would be scary. I just don't keep the perfect shape anymore I don't know.... I just really don't seem to give a fuck anymore.

    I NEED to tan... worse of it is... there is a tanning bed upstairs in my hotel so I have no excuse

    Yay, welcome to the other side!

    Anyone else go through these phases?
    Why, yes I do.

    It's not so bad. I mean, as long as you're healthy you'll look god anyways, so why bother with all the tanning-fake nail shit? If you were a tabledancer sure, but you're a stage girl...you get judged on your body and your show. Anything that can't be seen under stage lights from 15ft away doesn't matter.

    Yeah I get like this too until all of a sudden I'm like whoa and then spend the night giving myself a leg wax, brow pluck, mani, pedi, fake tan, blah blah, etc etc..

    Don't stress about it. Everybody takes a break from it every so often and when you want to get back into doing it all you will.

    I do all the time. It's hard to keep motivation for me to exercise & stuff when theres so much yummy food around! Hopefully with the new year turn around I will be more motivated to exercise and go on my chicken salad / cranberry-lemonade diet.

    I go through these stages too. Tanning, getting hair and nails done, etc. takes up so much time! And it's not even relaxing or pampering to me (except for the tanning); it's more of a chore. I just spent 3 and a half hours one day last week getting my hair colored and trimmed and another hour one day getting acrylics put on. It's funny because my guy friends think I have so much free time when I'm not working and I really don't. They don't realize how much upkeep goes into our appearances for our jobs.

    I can totally relate to this. People say to me, "Its great you work at night, you must have so much free time in the day." Well, firstly, I don't get up till after noon and it takes me a couple of hours to get ready and get to work and by the time I do normal stuff like go food shopping, clean house, wash dishes ect I only really have a couple of free hours a day. That doesn't include maintenance like getting nails done, tanning, washing and repairing costumes. When your doin this job full time you really don't have that much free time.

    Cally - Im the same way but its because all thats been going on. I just dont care so much to be 'perfect' anymore. For me, its almost like I was so fake and now I feel more normal. I dont mind it at all.... altho I do kinda miss having the fake nails. Im going to have to get back into caring when I start my job next week...

    I put almost zero effort into my looks. I only shave when I work. My armpits are unshaved right now, I cut my nails short and never paint them, I hardly ever wear makeup, and sometimes I don't even brush my hair. I know I have the potential to be hot. I'm just so goddamned lazy. I think a way for me (and you!) to jump start caring about our looks again is to go to a spa and get it all done at once. Hair done, eyelashes dyed, brows waxed, massage, mani and pedi, facial.

    i stopped getting my nails done for almost a year..and i sometimes go through phases where i don't go tanning for months at a time. I think everyone does this. With me though it had to do with how i was happy/unhappy with my home life. Like stopped tanning/gettingnails done because i was depressed didn't feel like leaving the house and what not.

    when you let yourself go for a while it makes you feel even better when you do get primped up!
    I dont have fake nails or hair and only really highlight my hair and have pedicures so not much upkeep. Keep it to a minimum so if you have no money or fall ill or whatever it wont be so frightning!

    I dont understand how now tanning is lazy. tanning is unhealthy and i think peoples natural skin should be appreciated just as much as a tan.
    but i get lazy. like not doing my hair. my eyebrows are opposite, they need me to leave them alone.
    I think my lazyness is not trying to stay up with my clothes perfectly match or my shoes being appropriate.
    I think Winter time is meant for lazyness. Spring and summer are meant for not lazyness and fall is to wind down to winters lazyness

    but we like tanning and being tan. if that's part of your upkeep routine and you dont do it, that's lazy. just like if someone thinks fake nails are silly and you should just grow your own. well, that's for them. for me, i do what i feel comfortable doing. you know?
