Beauty on a Budget Tip #9: Pace yourself.
Instead of getting your eyebrows waxed every two weeks, try going once a month for shaping. In between monthly visits, be vigilant about stray hairs and pluck them as soon as they come in to maintain clean-looking brows. During the cooler months, scrimp on leg waxes and shave instead (if you have to) because no one can see your legs under your stockings or pants. Not only will this save you money, but, according to Finney, it’s healthier for you too: “If you wax too much, you will start to irritate your skin.”

Beauty on a Budget Tip #10: Knowledge is key.
Did you know that having more hair can actually save you money? “It is more expensive to keep a shorter haircut than it is to keep a longer one,” states Finney. It’s easy to camouflage the need for a trim with long hair as it grows out. If you want to save yourself the expense of maintaining a spiffy little haircut every six weeks, keep your hair lengthy and you’ll have a couple more weeks of ease on your bank account. Add in some layers and you get a few additional weeks of financial relief.
