I think many can relate to this question. This is actuallys my problem why i could not save but somehow I'm taking this into consideration because it is really impossible to save if I always give in. Like for instance, my weekly salon visit, knowing me, I cannot leave until I get my manicure/pedicure done and also hair treatments. Gosh right? But I am promising myself to not go on a weekly sched, maybe once or twice would work. It's a start.

Perhaps you can get together with a friend or two.  I do that and we give each other manicures and pedicures.  They aren't difficult.  As to you hair, you might try going longer in between treatments, or consider getting it one color which is what a friend of mine did, instead of getting highlights which were expensive.  I have mine one color, and usually do it myself 2-3 times before I'll go to the salon and get it done professionally.  You can still look good and save!

i don't think a vain person can save money.they spend unnecessary on useless products and items which proves no point at all.

Have girl parties where you get a bunch of your friends together and do manicures, facials, pedicures etc.  I understand that this is important to you right now but saving money needs to be started when you are young so you don't have to worry when you are old.

I think this is a tough decision like me i used to have all that luxury stuff eversince, i always go to salon for a set of manicure pedicure . footspa and facial treatment, that was once a week! and aside from that i used to but clothes on a weekly basis and i know that spend a lot of money and i have come to realize that it's not worth to spend i was so addictive that it's like i can't live without them. but now i learned my lesson well:)

Try to go once in 2 weeks that would mean you have to spent only 50% of what you will spent these days for the salon.I hope you can wait for one more week,so that you can save 50% money.

Throw vanity out the window.  That does not mean that you don't take showers or wash your hair.  A well kept person looks just as good as someone all "dolled" up with a fancy manicure a fancy "hair do."  You can save by buying cheaper products at the $1 store and as someone already mentioned, give yourself your own facials, pedicures, manicures, etc.  You can save a lot of money this way if you choose, but you have to be the one to make the choice.
