What is the weirdest thing you've done in the pursuit of physical attractiveness?

"Weird" doesn't have to mean "uncommon" or "unconventional", just whatever you feel weird about, for whatever reason.

Do you still do this thing?

I Just Found some opinion .... Kindly look once ...........

Pierced my tongue.  I kept the stud in my tongue from about 1998-2001.  Then it hit me one day how stupid I looked.  I removed it, not after chipping away a few teeth.  There are parts of the body that are okay to pierce ... the tongue isn't one.

I bleach my arm hair. I'm a hairy person (thanks Dad) and it's all very dark (thanks Mom) and one summer I noticed that my arm hair had turned gold because I had spent so much time in the sun and I felt so much happier about my body that I started bleaching my hair in the darker months.

I've been doing it for years and every single time I find myself sitting in the washroom with my arms burning a bit (hey, it's bleach) and wondering what the fuck I'm doing and why I'm buying into the establishment of policing women's body hair. It feels awful and afterwards my skin is slightly whiter where I had bleach and I wonder at what the hell I'm doing to my body but I keep doing it anyway.

Honourable mentions:

I pierced my nipples (twice...) but I can't say that was purely for aesthetics ;)

I literally draw my eyebrows on every day.

I pluck my hairline to make it symmetrical.

Good question...

By me practically growing up in a salon I've been a human guinea pig for all sorts of beauty treatments.  I've been bleached, waxed, threaded and plucked bare on many occasions.

I think the most daring thing I've probably done is gotten my make up tattooed on.  I got a full face of permanent makeup done in one day. Eyebrows, upper and lower eyeliner, lip liner and full lips tattooed on.  I also did this overseas which was pretty daring.  Have I ever regretted this....no.

I did get eyelash extensions once.  That was the most annoying thing ever.  I realized I had to take extra care when washing my face.  Then I realized as they naturally start to shed your natural eyelashes look awful.  I've also noticed that people who do this on a regular basis tend to damage their eyelash follicle.

Sometimes before going out I will pump my lips.  The pumping of the lips can give the illusion of fuller lips.  There are tools you can use to pump your lips.  Or you can just put your lips in an empty baby food jar and just suck the air out.  Be aware if you do this for too long you can have some funny looking lips.

On a regular basis I apply my glycolic acid to my face to help with acne.  Once I used 70% glycolic acid and peeled my entire face.  It just looked like I had a bad sunburn.  Then afterward my skin purged like I had never seen it purge before.  I also apply and acid peel to my feet.  I put a mixture of glycolic acid,TCA and vinegar in booties, then cover with heavy socks and sleep in the mix.  A few days later this will cause any callus or dead skin to peel off your feet.

I've had my nether regions bleached and waxed for a friend who needed the salon hours to get their certificate.  That was all kinds of awkward and painful.  Especially when you have an instructor looming over.  Would I do that again? Nope...never...no way.

I've always had thin eyebrows, but they really started to thin out in my early 30s. So I decided to see a "brow specialist" to see if she could help.

Apparently, for a lot of people, this meant waxing, so she assumed extra hair and had the wax going when I arrived. I may have also mentioned waxing before making the appointment. But when I went in, and smelled the wax melting, she took one look at my brows and said, "Honey, wax is the last thing you need."

I have never done a count, but I imagine my actual brow hairs number in the double digits. Every hair serves a purpose, and we aimed at maximizing every brow hair we could.

She recommended that I, get this, bleach my brows and then draw in fake ones over the peach-colored sparsely-haired terrain. I said no way, but then I'd read about the same tip in a beauty book by the late, great makeup artist Kevin Aucoin.

So I bought a jar of Jolen skin bleach and did it myself. Bleached and drew in my brows for years, all through the period where "drawn-on" was still in style.

I still draw them on but I don't bleach. I've found some powder pencils which create a fairly natural effect, or just leave 'em be. The sparse eyebrows don't look as funny on an older person.

Several months after my son was born, when I was breastfeeding and my hormones were a little unpredictable, I noticed a few little hairs growing on my upper lip. I mentioned it when I saw my stylist and she said, "Oh, let me just wax that for you. It'll be quick and easy." So she did. 

My upper lip felt kind of numb and funny for the rest of the day, but there was no hair there. But the next morning, after I showered, I looked in the mirror and noticed a rash had appeared on my upper lip. Huh, I thought, I wonder if that's normal. Maybe the heat in the shower caused it. 

Well, as the day went on, this little pink rash turned red, with dozens of little white blisters. It spread across my upper lip, around the corners of my mouth, and to my lips. It burned like fire. There was nothing I could do for it but take an antihistamine (which made me feel sluggish and miserable), avoid all lotions, creams, and makeup, and wait for it to clear up. It took almost two weeks. And a month after that, the hair was growing back anyway.

You may think that was the worst thing that I did for "beauty" (which obviously backfired big-time), but no. The worst thing I did was a couple months later when I let my stylist talk me into doing it again. "Oh, that happens sometimes," she said breezily. "It was the heat. You just have to put some ice on it and stay out of a hot shower for a couple days."

I don't know why I believed her. She just seemed so confident. She even went into the break room and made me up a little ice pack to hold to my upper lip. I dutifully held it to my face for 20 minutes but, even before I got to my car, it was burning and forming bumps. This time the reaction was even worse than it had been the first time. So, I got to live through several more weeks of looking and feeling miserable. 

The irony is that the hair on my upper lip probably wasn't noticeable to anyone but myself, but the rash was hideous. And I paid for this service! Twice! After that, I never went back to that stylist or that salon. My hormones more or less evened out for the next decade and now, when I encounter a stray hair, I just pluck it out with tweezers. Because no way am I going through that again.

The one that pops to mind (and is probably the stupidest one yet) is not eating.

I remember in HS, I thought I was HUGE, when I only weighed like, 115lbs. I kept thinking that belly fat was not normal, my thighs were enormous when I sat down, etc. etc.

So I would have a lemonade at lunch. Maybe some fruits. I thought not eating would make me "beautiful" like the rest of the girls in my class. They all seemed so flawless and fit. I also dreamed of being like the girls on my fav TV shows. Thinking about this now makes me want to time travel, slap myself, and maybe shove a burger into my mouth.

I actually had no idea what anorexia was at that time, and didn't have many people to talk to about self image.

By the time I hit 19 and went to college, something finally hit me and I thought, "Who the hell am I trying to impress?"

Answer: no one but myself.

Eat food! Food is good! Eating makes one more beautiful.

When I was in Jr High, I began to worry about gaining weight. Now, I wasn't even what someone would call chubby, but I had some baby fat on my tummy that I loathed. My family was always telling me I needed to "get some meat on my bones," but my dad's side of the family is all very large, so it just made me feel awful. It didn't help when this mean, overweight boy in Home Economics called me fat. In retrospect, he was probably projecting his insecurities onto others.

But all of this combined with my own anxieties to result in me suffering from anorexia. I already didn't eat much and had a high metabolism, but I started skipping meals because "I forgot." I had a history of getting engrossed in a book and forgetting, so it wasn't completely abnormal, but I started doing it all the time.

Now the anorexia part isn't the weird part of this story, because in 8th grade I started being addicted to exercise, specifically calisthenics. When I woke up every morning and before I went to bed each night, I would do a routine of crunches, push-ups, and various other calisthenics. At one point I was doing somewhere between 600 and 700 crunches. Obviously it was at a point where the exercises weren't doing anything meaningful (I wasn't doing multiple reps, just the 6-700 in a row), but it was the addition that drove me.

And, to be fair, I did have four-pack abs. A lot of folks were jealous of how I looked (yay for size 0-2, right?), and that certainly only validated the internalized feelings I had. I told myself I was being healthy.

But in the long run, there were major issues. I've got my anorexia under control, but it's much harder for me to exercise without going overboard now. And I also don't know when I'm hungry any more. I have to try to eat at present allotments of time, because otherwise I probably won't feel hungry. At other times, I'll feel starving after just eating a meal.

Physically, though, I'm at a much healthier place. I'm still thin, but more like a size 6 than a 0 (I'm 5'6"). That doesn't mean that I don't still get occasional panics at the tiny bit of chub on my tummy, but I've got it under control.
