Well Im doing some research on narcissism for school and I just wanted to see what you guys are like. Personally Im quite bad Ill spend a while trying to look my best, the only thing I really care about is:
Spots
Hair
Hands (being Clean)
Whiteness of Teeth.
but I dont really care what people think about me, I do it for myself.

What about you?

I care about my appearance; it's something I take pride in. I don't have problems with spots really so don't have to worry about that, but I'll make sure my hair's decent and stuff before I go out anywhere.

I care, it can make you feel good for the day knowing you look presentable. But I don't obsess over it.

Also, Do you find it discouraging if you have tried really hard to look good and someone makes a bad comment about you?

Yes, especially if it's the person I've made an effort for.

Probably a bad thing, but in my opinion, your appearance is the most important thing about you. People make judgements the second they lay eyes on you. Sure, they'll change once they get to know you better, after talking to you, but for that first reaction kind of judgement, you've got to look fantastic.

I'm defintiely obsessive over my appearance. I spend ages in the bathroom, freak out if I see a pimple anywhere on my face. I go to the hairdresser on a monthly basis normally, because I get sick of hair very easily, and try to keep it fresh. Then there's clothing. Almost any money I make goes straight to my wardrobe. I'm not a 'brand' person, but I definitely don't go to Target or the equivilant for clothing, I stick to boutiques or buy it online from the states (Abercrombie <3).

Reading back on that now makes me feel like an idiot, but the hard work pays off. I always get comments on the clothes I'm wearing/how nice I look, and I love it. It's worth anything that I have to do.

i do care, but i won't get obsessive over my appearance.

i must shower, shampoo my hair, cleanse my face, brushing my teeth etc before i leave the house. it makes me feel good, clean and also presentable. i do it for myself though, for hygiene.

i usually spend only a few minutes doing my hair. i have an acne problem, but it doesn't bother me so much. i'm sort of 'used to it'. i'm on a doctor's medication though, so it should be fine.

Also with the thing about someone commenting on you badly, just say JEALOUS then walk away :)

I give up on my teeth, it's not easy at all keeping them white and the dentist moans whatever state their in, just as long as they don't go REALLY yellow or black and I don't have bad breath I couldn't care less against my teeth.

I care about my hair quite a lot and I do have a issue with spot, but they're removed within days and then I'm prepared for the next lot. I try everything (Knives, the lot :()

Yeah I have a obsession with Designer clothes as that's the way I like to be represented, probably a bad thing.

So yeah, I do care a bit, nothing silly though. I'd say I dedicate 10 minutes a day to appearance.

Clothes wise I'll just wear what ever I like the look of not really bothered about others opinions on clothes.

Hygiene wise I do make sure I brush my teeth, shower etc

I spike my hair mostly every day so it naturally spikes up now. Lets just say people who do brush there teeth and make their selves look nice are people who are cool and are looking for chicks.

I think I care about how I look, but I'm not obsessed with it. Also, I do care about how people perceive my looks, but not in the way to impress others, but if they think I look like something I'm not like something negative, I might want to change that so I'm not perceived as that. It's not that I'm trying to impress them. Just trying to get people to not think things that are untrue about me.

I'm not really bothered about what I look like. I just wake up, brush teeth, wash face, shower then go out.

I'm sure you care a little bit, & oh my gosh, you don't even get dressed? :O!

I take time on my hair, spots I try to keep away from, avoid having dirty clothes (I can change my shirt up to three times a day), but my hands are normally filthy from messing around with my moped, my teeth aren't very white because I smoke and my shoes are normally a bit dirty:P

It's only an issue people who're bored have.
I care about my appearance but not to the point where I buy lots of stuff and thousands of £ worth of clothing.

I think my appearance is very important. I always make sure I look neat before going out somewhere. People worry about what everyone else looks like, and they find it silly if they see someone who doesn't take care of their appearance.

The only time you need to look very neat and tidy and well dressed is when you're going to work (Depending on where you work), job interviews and important events like weddings.

I see neat and tidy as a PoloShirt (Blue, navy) a belt, black trousers, a pair of well polished boots(or shoes) and a belt. and obviously washed hair.

Well what a pile of crap.
I like spending lots of £££ on clothes and stuff. It has nothing to do with me being bored that i want to look good. I never leave the house without my teeth bein brushed or my hair being done.

I can spend hours getting ready some days, not cause I am bored, but because I like to look half descent.
And when i go clubbing, i spend ageeees!

Everyone should care what they look like, if i walked down the street dressed like a tramp and not done my hair i would feel physically sick!!!!

I thought guys woke up and they were perfect? :] apparently not then, they spend like hours looking after themselves, well most do. ^^
Sometimes I'll shove my hair up in a bobble and dab a bit of make-up on and i'm off.
but before school i spend like an hour on my hair, do make-up and uhh. yeh. :]

I care a little, however - i'll go out without make-up on dressed in my "cosy" clothes haha.

I care mainly for my hair, when my hair is being nice, then so am I.


I probably spend 30 mins, max, in the morning getting ready.

i cba with my hair (with styling) but i was it everyday or at least every other day, and i'd never leave the house with greasy or messy hair. i can't stand it when it rains too because my hair goes all skanky and weird so i'm like running to the nearest shelter.

i only care about clothes when i'm at school or going out, cos when i'm at home i don't really need to worry as no one's going to see me :D my shoes are always clean because i can't stand the feeling of them being dirty.

i brush my teeth twice daily, and even still they're not perfectly white, but they're in good condition i'd say. they're straight and everything, and i only get bad breath in the mornings because i ate something bad the night before. if my teeth feel 'furry', i'll brush them too. worst feeling ever.
