21 Guilty Pleasures That Can Destroy Your Finances

LOOKING GREAT

It’s no secret that looking good will cost you. But you might be shocked to learn just how much your monthly beauty routine costs.

Manicure devotees get their nails done once a week at an average of nearly $21 for a basic manicure, or nearly $31 for a deluxe manicure, according to Statista. Instead, buy a bottle of top-rate nail polish for $12.50 that will last a few months and a deluxe manicure set for $20 and give yourself a home manicure. You’ll save an anywhere from $1,000 to $1,500 a year, not including tip.

You don’t have to trim your own locks to save on a nice haircut. The average haircut in Miami in 2017 cost $26; in New York, it was $73. If you’re content with a quick haircut from a national chain, check your mailbox, newspaper and the company’s website for coupons.

If you’re looking for something different, check Groupon. Even the trendiest salons will offer discounts of 50 percent or more. If you get your hair cut every six to eight weeks as the pros recommend, your savings will be substantial at the end of the year by using available discounts.
