Do You Pamper Yourself, and if so, How Often?

Ok, just wondering how many of you pamper yourself with, and how often you get, each of the following...

-Manicures

-Pedicures

-Massages

-Facials

-Eyebrow Waxings

I haven't had a manicure, pedicure, facial or massage in about a year, but I try to get the eyebrows waxed about once a month.

**Also...does getting any of this embarrass you at all or do you keep it very discrete when you go to have any of these done?**

None of what you mentioned. But I do buy high quality clothing and alcohol.

I dislike strangers touching me.

Definitely! Every night from 10:05pm to 10:07pm. Sometimes 10:08pm.

No, no, no, no, and no.

I don't think I'd ever consider any of the first four. I've thought about whether I'd have my eyebrows waxed if they started to get out of control, but I've never done it. On the one hand I don't really want to have crazy eyebrows, but on the other hand I don't want to be one of those guys who has his eyebrows waxed.

+1 to everything.

OP - are you sure you have the right forum?

I get manicures whenever I manage to get my nails to a decent length without them chipping and peeling. When they're somewhat long then you can get them cut in a nice shape and they look really good. Also gives you a chance to try some funky colours you'd never actually buy yourself. I don't wear open toed shoes nor walk barefoot in mixed company, so I don't really care about pedicures. I haven't really got the time or money as a college student for massages and facials and such, although I wish I did. As for eyebrows, that's a tricky point. I think my eyebrows are a little large, but I think that eyebrow waxing is awkward and strange for guys. I think I'd have to meet a guy who waxed his eyebrows with excellent results to consider it. Kinda like "I don't know whether it's worse to be a guy with big eyebrows or a guy who waxes his eyebrows."

None of that. The only "pampering" you should be getting is at a barber shop with a sharp blade and hot lather after getting a decent haircut, and then getting your shoes shined. Cut your own nails.

You guys are all grown men, time to stop pampering yourselves.

Really depends on whether I'm having a hard time getting to sleep.

I get manicures as a reward for not biting my nails, however, that hasn't happened in the last two years.

I get pedicures because I don't like clipping my own toe nails and I like the foot massage and scrub you get.

I get massages every few months or so and would do it more often if they were more affordable.

I had my junk waxed a few times, but now I just shave down there.

I've never had a facial, but it sounds tempting.
