I put in what I considered the minimum effort…I did wear braces (my mum made me) and I did straighten my hair (badly) in my 20’s.
But make up and hair removal was always a when I could be bothered thing, not a survival ritual.
My mum never dieted, so I never thought about it either…I’ve never tried. I try to incorporate exercise (walking) into my day, but last time I went to the gym was at school in 1997.
I’ve got a lot of grey hair currently self-dyed light purple for my own amusement.
