Pandemic impact on personal grooming and self-care

Overview

Discussions regarding the long-term effects of pandemic lockdowns have highlighted shifts in personal grooming and self-care habits. Reflections on the period suggest that beauty rituals, such as rigorous grooming routines, have been adopted by some as a means of supporting mental well-being.

Individual experiences, such as a viral case of a woman requiring five days of intensive salon work to repair hair neglected for three years, illustrate the profound impact of isolation. While such instances have drawn social media scrutiny, they have also prompted widespread empathy regarding the decline in self-care linked to mental health struggles during the pandemic.
