Bleached hair with dark roots.
Too-high stilettos.
Jeans with holes in them (who try to look poor?).
Tattoo over-load but the same for men.
I don't mind very high stilettos on a purely aesthetic sense. The others I agree with and constitute most of my list of turnoffs. Also on it are dyed black hair, black fingernail polish, and blue or black lipstick, in ascending order of creepiness, although once in a while a woman with blemish-free porcelain skin can get away with fake black hair and maybe black nail polish. Ha, I forgot the biggest often-seen turnoff of all - short hair. Hrrm, I'm already over 5, but pigtails also are bad.

I am really digging women wearing suits. The gal wearing a tie looks so slick. I wonder if it would bother employers if women started to wear these style suits like this gal for job interviews(needs to change collar to white and suit should be black of course).

Women that wear underware and clothes that are too small for them, tend to emphisize their obesity, almost flaunting it.
Bald women have their reasons I respect that, but buch and short hair screems of lesbeanism. IMO
I find the boot fettish girls are doing now interesting ,some don't know how to coordenate their wardrobe though.
It's kind a cool seeing girls wearing riding caps, pants, and boots with spurrs , OK we live in wine country lots of horses.
But it says something about the person, they are doers not just talkers. Women that get dirty doing things is sexy to me.

I don't think you know what generic means. It certainly would not be a name-brand. I think you meant to say 'too common.'

I was starting to doubt my understanding of the word generic. Generic is NOT name-brand.

I'm not a fan of any words splashed across a woman's ass like "Pink" or "Juicy" etc.

Nothing extreme; that means I really don't care for clothing that is too revealing or too conservative.

Frump: if you're going to the grocery store to buy milk there's no harm in throwing on a pair of sweats and an oversized tee. If you're dining out or coming to work dressed like Dumpy McFrumpy it basically says you've given up.

I opt for a clear base coat and a slightly pinkish or beige sheer top coat. This home manicure lasts about 5 days which is fine by me.
My nails have always been strong and I keep them short for typing but could grow them long if it wasn't annoying. But my babyfine hair was breaking off. I didn't get the walmart biotin, but ordered some from a company which sells European medicial grade suppliments, actually cheaper than walmart. Its done wonders for my hair and my nails seem to grow even faster. I find the shine on my nails which is natural is sufficent. A long while ago I discovered that polish damaged the surface and quit using it. They shine nicely on their own now.

I assume it would work well though, because supposedly biotin is good for nails AND hair. And my hair is certainly healthy...but then, it's always had a life separate from mine...
My hair would make hairdressers sigh, and say, Oh, babyfine... Even when I was in my twenties. I WISH I'd known about biotin then, but it makes a huge difference for my hair, making it a lot thicker. And it doesn't break off much either.

They actually make a scalp rub for a quick boost which helps a lot too, but I find the pills work too. Just don't get department store brands. They don't absorb as well.

Henna over chemicals if hair is breakable is good too since it actually strenghts with it as it bonds in the color.

Long time ago I remember this woman at Sears trying to work the register. This was when the really long fake nails were new. She was doing these finger contortions to hit the keys. They looked gaudy and like something you'd get from a dollar store, but I'm sure they were better 'quality'. I kept wondering why one would make your fingers dysfunctional for tasks you had to do with such fangs.

My nails at the time were long but real, and not as long as hers only because I cut them when they got in the way. Watching her made me want to ask her to step aside and I'd punch the keys for her.
