I have only had gel nails when I taught so my nails and polish would be in shape for teaching foods.

 

When I left teaching, I filed it all off and have been doing my own.

Have had them all.  It's so relaxing.

I have had them all at least once.  I think it is a waste of money.  I don't get my haircut very often either.  When I "yell" at myself for spending a bit too much money at QVC, I often think of the things I "could" spend money on that I don't, like that very list.

I've never had a facial.

I've had a couple of manicures for special occasions.

I've never had a pedicure but Lord knows I could use one!

I've never had a massage because I have Fibro Myalgia (and a very low pain tolerance)

My husband would tell you I am NOT low maintenance! Smiley Surprised  

I have a mini fridge in the bathroom that's full of skin care Smiley Happy

As you can tell Im very low maintenance lol.  But I do my skin care and take care of myself. Just never felt the need to do any of the above. Cat Very Happy


I have only had a manicure. So no you're not the only one. I'm frugal about some things and low maintenance and getting a massage is just a little weird to me.

Had them all except a facial.

 

If I could afford it I would have a massage every week!  Sooooooo wonderful!

Never had a facial. I have such terribly sensitive and reactive skin, that I'd be terrified to try!

 

Massage --- I have thought about it --- I guess it might feel good.  But I am kind of squeamish about the thought???

 

As for mani or pedi --- I worry about infection.  If anyone would get an infection, it would be me.

 

I am very low maintenance.  

 

I tell DH, you don't know how lucky you are to have me!  I can get ready to go in like 5 minutes!

I miss my mani's and pedi's.  Not planning on going until it's safe.  My toes look terrible.

My mom took me to get a manicure the day before I got married in 1970.  My first and my last.   Never had the desire to get a pedi, facial, or massage.  So, no, you are not alone, @FlowerBear.

Your "eww", my "survival". Massages are by no means just an icky personal indulgence. For some of us, they were medical care that kept us upright and ambulatory.

I've never had a massage administered by someone "fussing". I 

wouldn't want to myself.
