5 Treat Your Self
Just as important as our clothing, personal grooming plays a significant role when starting and mantaining personal relationships.
Taking care of our hair, skin and facial hair (for the men who read this) shows others that we love ourselves and that we actually make an effort to like others.
My personal favorite, Jonathan van Ness, is a hairdresser who focuses on your personal image by giving you a haircut that matches your personality and pampering your skin.
Some people, particularly men, believe that personal grooming is hard or that it takes too long to actually considering making it part of your routine, but it's not!

This show will take you through tough personal rides, you will cry, you will laugh, reflect on stuff you have strong opinions about, and I promise, you won't end an episode without putting some thoughts into how you are dealing with life.
Is not just a reality makeover, it's a game changing show. It offers you guidance, confidence, acceptance, tolerance, help getting out of your comfort zone, how to care, and to finally have the life you always wanted.
