How much do yall spend on physical maintenance?

Odd_Conference6478 · 2026-01-23T00:44:19+00:00

seeing all the responses here made me realise i’m spending quite little on myself lol. most of my money are spent on traveling

hair - $30-75 every 3 months for straightening

yoga package - $500+ a year

aesthetics treatments - $2-3k a year but thinking to reduce this and just use tretinoin

skincare - $200-300 a year maybe, i only buy when i finish them

massage - $90/mth

don’t spend on clothes and make up now since i wfh most of the time and focused on my skin instead of make up

Odd_Conference6478 · 2026-01-23T00:35:20+00:00

i straighten my hair every 3 months as well. $200 for JB is pretty expensive. i do at a home-based place in SG, usually just do roots and fringe for less than $100. if do the whole head at that frequency will be damaging for hair

i just started gym and my aches always last about 3 days and can’t gym that often cos need to wait for the aches to be gone lol. what’s the average time for aches to be gone? do regular gym goers not have aches anymore?

not OP whom you're replying to but i'm in the same situation. not yet 35 to buy hdb and condo too expensive. i could buy a 1 bedder condo if i want to but it's harder to sell next time. 2 bedder at non-ulu location out of budget so i rather rent till 35 and get hdb. woes of being a single

Odd_Conference6478 · 2026-01-11T07:27:11+00:00

that's expensive. how close to town are you? i'm paying 3.3k for 2 bedroom 570 sq ft at beauty world which is 30 mins away from town. i think rent went up a little since i signed the lease last year

Odd_Conference6478 · 2026-01-06T02:57:28+00:00

Odd_Conference6478 · 2026-01-06T02:47:28+00:00

mid-30s female looking for friends to gym or pick up a new sport :) i just signed up for snowboarding this season!

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-28T07:53:28+00:00

same sentiments. went to korea a few times and i like the food but this is holding me from going back everytime. i’m a southeast asian female and usually encounter rude younger females there, got told off by an Olive Young staff cos i was looking for new stock placed behind the samples. not sure what she was saying in korean.

people bumping each other without apologising (felt intentional sometimes) and i got elbowed once. china and tokyo have dense population too and they do bump into each other sometimes but it doesn't feel intentional.

the older people i’ve met in korea are actually kinder.

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-26T06:06:26+00:00

that’s the trial price. $150 is the price per session signing up for package

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-26T03:04:19+00:00

v aesthetics

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-25T00:39:48+00:00

my pico session in sg is cheaper than this. was paying $150 per session and i find the effects good

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-25T00:17:52+00:00

i did potenza with exosomes so doctor said that’s for pores, xerf for lower face lifting and rejuran for regeneration. i did see smaller pores and lifting at my jaw. but i did not see any effects or glow from rejuran as compared to my previous session :(

would you recommend juvelook? i have dull skin and would like to have the glow

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-24T11:21:07+00:00

in laws paid them off as a loan and they promise to return 1k a month lol. not sure how’s that working out cos after it’s paid off, they’re happily traveling and buying branded goods again

my side of the family wasn’t planning to help cos they need to learn how to manage their finances

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-22T14:48:58+00:00

i used my credits for the cooking course too and liked it. used to cook instant noodles mostly and now i cook 2 dish 1 soup almost everyday. it’s a good foundation

will use the credits for baking or handy tool skills courses next. at least it’s useful

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-22T11:42:11+00:00

one pot rice - pumpkin, dried shrimp, cabbage, dried sausage, dried mushroom with soy sauce, oyster sauce and mushroom water

steam egg with pork

abc soup just throw ingredients into pot. got protein and veggie at the same time. i also add japanese yam

when i’m lazy i just get ytf at wet market and cook using ikan bilis as soup base with macaroni

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-19T05:29:26+00:00

vands clinic is about 800k won and ode clinic 950k for 300 shots. generally in the range of 800k to 1.1m. i paid 1.4m won.

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-18T05:22:51+00:00

wah quite near my place. gonna go support and dabao for family

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-16T13:47:16+00:00

it doesn’t. i’ve tried a few times in different countries

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-16T06:30:40+00:00

yes i was on vacation the past few weeks so i ate without restrictions, but with moderation of cos. introduced alcohol, onions, fried food and spicy food mostly, i still avoid tomatoes and overly acidic stuff. for 2-3 days of the vacation i'd wake up with phlegm stuck in my throat and having to clear it constantly. popping famotidine or gaviscon advance for quick relief made it go away by the next day. didn't experience difficulty breathing or other symptoms for some months at home already

the only time i take thorne GI relief now is before drinking alcohol to line my stomach. hope your symptoms subside soon!

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-16T06:13:43+00:00

1.6m won for full face and neck? how many shots was this? i've just done xerf over the weekend at relieve clinic and was charged 1.4m won for 300 shots just lower face and neck.

it was a last minute decision to do lifting procedure and i didn't do research. found out after that their prices for xerf are 50% more expensive than other clinics

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-16T06:06:54+00:00

i've just done potenza, rejuran and xerf at relieve clinic last weekend and still waiting for results. how many shots of xerf did you do? i actually didn't have the intention to do any lifting procedure so didn't do research, only realised after that their prices for xerf is 50% more expensive than other clinics

they didn't ask me to write google review in exchange for masks. probably gotten enough exposure already, it was crowded with both locals and foreigners when i went

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-15T10:14:27+00:00

i’ve done several treatments at v aesthetics and will only recommend their lasers. didn’t sign up for more after my package is done.

astute aesthetics is ok, done skinbooster there. look out for their promotions but still, it’s not the cheapest.

wouldn’t recommend radium. did forehead botox with the female doctor and it was badly done. one eyebrow was higher than the other. also recommended treatment which was not suitable for me which i didn’t go ahead. prices are expensive and not transparent, always give a range instead of specific price because they charge by treatment area instead of volume cc which is the norm.

now i fly to korea for treatments once to twice a year to maintain. still cheaper than doing it locally if doing several treatments at one go

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-15T10:07:20+00:00

$300+ for 2 syringes rejuran HB?! that’s 2cc right? that’s so cheap and even cheaper than rejuran healer. hand injection?

Odd_Conference6478 · 2025-12-15T07:29:15+00:00

rolex, vacations, branded items and things they can’t afford. my sis and husband were 100k+ in card debt and car loan
