I am going travelling for two months from july 22nd to september 24th. (soo excited!)

just wanted to know what beauty treatments you ladies get done before you holiday/vacation?

gonna book in for a full body wax (OUCH OUCH OUCH!) and a fake tan i think.

any other reccomendations? its going to be two months of roughing it so want to be beautified and prepared before hand.

If it's for business, I make sure my hair is cut and the color touched up before I travel. When I go home, I just make sure I don't have a birdsnest for hair.

he's so big already! i'm going to miss them so much when i go. i can only do about a day without them and Maverick is always so pleased to see me when i'm back. The kitten couldnt care less if he never saw me again as long as his food bowl was filled on time!

what about nails? i have nail extensions and when i go away i get a pedicure and toe nail extensions too.

do you think i should leave it this time? i am unsure as to whether they have nail bars in thailand in which to get infills done.

i wouldnt do it IMO? especially not feet, just let your toe nails grow and go to a salon and they can do a nice pedicure

I do my nails once every few days to keep them nice looking.

fake toenails last two months so i'm not too worried about them. bt fingernails you have to get done every three weeks/month.

i could buy an infill kit and do it myself when i'm out there?

I know i used to have fake nails, and you should only do it your self if you know how to.. lol! because they dont turn out the way the salon does especially one hand.

Maybe you can look online about salons around where youre going im sure they have them there.
and for alot cheaper?

i get them done because its easier and far more long lasting than nail polish. i always chip toenail polish because i'm so clumsy and stub my toe atleast once a day. nail polish always needs to be touched up but falsies last 2 months plus and only come off if you pull them.

you can buy stick on ones from boots for £8 and they last about 5days but you can stick them back on. a full set of toe nails in my local nailbar costs £20, same as a full set of finger nails.

i get french manicure but the coloured stick ons are really cool.

I would make sure I got a hair trim and in my case-eyebrow wax. I've do my own nails do depending on if you want to cart nail stuff with you or not. Are you going to be in thailand the whole time? What a trip!!

starting of in singapore then travelling to thailand. then from bangkok to saigon, then saigon to hanoi. then hanoi to Laos, then Laos to thailand (cant remember where!) then back to Bangkok and home.

travel through malaysia, cambodia too.

might get my eyelashes dyed too.

wouldnt normally bother so much but i'm not going to have any make-up for the whole trip as its so hot it'll melt off! plus we are going to very cheap hotels so roughing it a bit!

need stuff to make me feel less gross!
