How many times during the day do you look at yourself in the mirror?

5323 and a half.
No, i dont know. A few.

Talia, 25

As seldom as possible. I feel pretty and thin until I see my reflection. The only mirror we have at home is a small one on the medicine cabinet - no full-length mirrors.

I don't need to. I have a daughter who doesn't hesitate to tell me if there is anything wrong with me; you have grey hair , your makeup is smudged; are your going out wearing that?? She is my new mirror.

Three... when I get up and prepare myself for work in the morning, once in between and before bed. As for a full-shot mirror, rarely; only if I'm going someplace special or wearing something brand new.

2-3 times usually in the morning to ensure that my clothes and hair are not wildly out of order.

Felicia, 36

Probably three or four. I really never kept track.

Judy, 62
Easton

Maybe twice..I don't really like to look at myself.

I've never counted.

When it's a work week...in the morning before I go, maybe once at work, and at night when I wash my face. Mirrors aren't my thing and I don't feel like I need to look that often!

Whenever I'm in the bathroom, I guess. Five times?

Karen, 22
Ames
, IA   USA

Well, considering I go to the bathroom about 12 times a day to use the facilities, I guess I see myself every time cause the mirror is right there in front of my face. But I usually use the mirror in the morning to put on my make-up, once or twice at work to brush my hair and remove the mascara smudge and once at night when I wash my face before I go to bed.

Janet, 44

I'm not happy about my extra poundage, so I look in the mirror as little as possible.

Jill, 61

After I take a shower, while I am doing my hair--that's it.

Melodi, 19

When I younger, I used to look at myself at every chance I got...now however, I only glance in one whenever I have to :)

I look in the mirror several times a day, but live in fear of the curse of 7 years bad luck.

Christopher, 28

definately. there's no question. i would do it for any of my six best friends so long as they hadn't hurt anyone deliberately.

Nathan, 21
Melbourne  AUSTRALIA

A few. It's unavoidable when I'm washing my hands at the sink, so I don't think those times count. I intentionally look when I'm brushing my hair in the morning, and before I start work/go back after a break, to make sure the collar of my shirt isn't turned up, and that I don't have anything in my teeth.

Hikaru, 19
PA  USA

about three

Sarah Jane, 15

Ech. Depends on if I'm wearing makeup. I look every time I go to the bathroom & wash my hands, after I eat to make sure theres nothing in my teeth.. Oh hell. I don't know. I'm not a narcissist, though. I know that.

Nicci, 27
Las Vegas
, NV   USA

probably about 10 times..but not intentionally. i hate looking at myself

Brad, 21
Sydney  AUSTRALIA

Twice.

Alias Irrelevante

Three to four times.

Ryan, 29
Morton
, IL   USA

Not often. In the morning when I'm getting ready for work and at night when I'm getting ready for bed. If I'm going out to meet with people, I might  check again. But often I just run a comb through my hair without looking.

Laura, 37
Lowell
, MA   USA

A couple of times. I try not to though. Just makes me think I need to comb my hair, but I'm not really a vain type.

Triana, 29
Austin
, TX   USA

I may glance at myself in the mirror before wor...just so I look presentable...because that is how you have to play the Game...still, vanity is not my bag...frankly, I do not like it on the rare occasion when I get complimented for my appearance...that is totally not my bag...

Menelaus, 30
Sparta  GREECE

Sorry it took me a few day!! but I looked on an average of 6 times a day

Nicole, 17
El Paso
, TX   USA

I'm compulsively vain. If there's a mirror, I look in it. And often I'm glad I did.
