1.Threading your own eyebrows and upper lip. Facial grooming can be expensive so why not learn the skill for yourself. I learnt how to thread from my mother in law. You will save a life time worth of salon trips and increase your savings. I also watched a whole lot of  YouTube videos  and practiced over and over. Now I do it  for my self and  I don't need go to the beauty salon. Developing different skills is a part of living a frugal meaningful life. Learning never stops!

2. Cutting your own hair! Imagine that. I know it sounds scary to most of you. If you don't feel confident enough practice makes perfect. I cut my own hair and I have invested in a hair cutting machine many years ago which I use to cut my families hair. This saves me so much because I'm not having to pay for weekly barber trips. I trim my own hair which prevents spilt ends this reduces the amount of times I need to go to the salon in a year. Constant maintenance and upkeep is how you save money.


3. DIY face packs to cleanse and nourish your skin. I'm all for natural products. Avoid using harsh ingredients and chemicals on your face because it ages you faster . It brings on the wrinkles without you even realizing it. Nobody wants to look older than they are .I use a mixture of plain unsweetened yogurt  with turmeric and honey once a week it's awesome for removing blemishes and dark circles around your eyes. It rejuvenates the skin leaving you with a youthful glow.


4. Sugar scrub as an exfoliator is awesome,  I just add a little sugar to my shower gel once a week  it exfoliates my skin leaving it smooth. Removing all the dead skin cells, allowing new growth. The key is to massage gently, rinse well and moisturize.
