The 10 Most Vain Cities

Mirror, mirror on the wall, which cities in the U.S. are the vainest of them all?

11 of 11

1. New York City

Sure, there are only 4.1 plastic surgeons per 100,000 people in the New York City region (compared to Salt Lake City's six), but the Big Apple outspends every other city in nearly every category -- more than $21 million on hair coloring, $32.5 million on skin care, $5.5 million on makeup and nearly $530,000 on hair growth products. According to the Census Bureau, there were more than ten thousand personal care businesses (think: hair and nail salons, day spas) in 2002 (the most recent year available) -- nearly three times the number in any other city. The state of New York also has the second highest number of hair restoration surgeons, and chances are they're centralized around The City.

I think people in San Francisco are a bit more laid back personally.

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.
