Nail biter? Eyebrow plucker?

This says something about you

Danie Bles told me recently that when her husband and sons are out of sight, she always plucks her eyebrows in the bathroom. And model and actress Olivia Munn has eyelash pulling as a ‘hobby’. Leontine Borsato has also mentioned in a Beau Monde interview that plucking her legs is a kind of occupational therapy.

It's just that I want to let my eyebrows grow, but otherwise you could picture me on the couch with a Tweezerman in my left hand and a magnifying mirror in my right. There is a word that describes this compulsive behavior; trichotillomania. Trichotillomania can lead to baldness (ouch!), stress, and social isolation.

The good news for the plucking addicts (and nail biters too) with something. And if you absolutely must wear those pumps, make sure they are a pair with an ankle strap, so your leg is broken up again. Also very nice: a nice sneaker. Nikes, Vans, Mipacha’s, actually anything works, and such a sporty shoe creates a nice contrast with the sexy skirt. is that it says you are perfectionistic. Always nice to see confirmed, because perfectionism is quite a good trait.

The bad news is that these ‘body-focused behaviors’ also indicate that you struggle to relax and are therefore sensitive to a buildup of stress.

What to do? Either you book a ten-session card with a therapist and go on a solid search for the underlying reason for your behavior.

Or you find a substitute habit. Shopping on Netaporter.com for example. Quite a bit more expensive, but very good for lowering stress levels and moreover you will definitely be extremely happy with. you definitely won't go bald from it.
