The English newspaper, The Daily Mail, reports that the average British woman spends an astonishing $70,296.33 on her hair in a lifetime. She will spend the equivalent of just under two years of her life washing, styling, cutting, colouring, crimping and straightening her locks in salons or at home. A whopping 650 days will be dedicated solely to creating a 'salon look' in her own bathroom. The average woman splashes out a monthly average of $19.20 on shampoos and conditioners, $26.73 on home styling products and $573.69 a year on haircuts and colouring. She spends the equivalent of 41 minutes at home every day washing, styling and restyling. (via www.dailymail.co.uk)

³Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— ⁴rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. (1 Peter 3:3-4)
