3. San Francisco, CA Despite the city's au natural patchouli-hippie history, San Francisco ranks third in vanity industries and spending. Citizens blow about $11 million a year on skincare, $5.2 million on hair products and $1.3 million on makeup, and there are 5.4 plastic surgeons per 100,000 people.
I don't know if I understand or agree with your methods for discerning which cities are the most "vain" or your definition of vain, really, but still an interesting read!
hahaha yea very materialistic people here in Florida. I guess it puts people under pressure when you have year round nice weather to be out on the beach!
what dumb-ass came up with the idea to do this story. all the data is almost a decade old and none of the the numbers are cross matched to account for population difference.
I wanna move to Manhattan soooo bad! Id love to have a thousand awesome salones, spas, make up stores, etc to choose from! Not to mention the rooftop yoga sessions and thousands of tings to do if you get bored! Thats my dream city!!!!!
This article is so interesting. I was surpised to see some of them up there, W. Virginia? Utah? Kentucky? Really? lol Just proved me not to assume. And NYC does have TONS of spas, salons, Sephora's on every corner...can you blame us?
Anyone who has traveled a lot and been to Los Angeles just KNOWS it should have been number one. It may not have the highest plastic surgeon to mere mortal ratio or whatever metrics were used to determine the rankings but it is out of this world. And it's attack of the clones out there. Not a whole lot of variety in style....
