This routine usually took from two to three hours depending on how "good" I wanted to look. The reason why I started this routine in the first place is because I was bullied for my appearance since fourth grade. What I wanted was to prove them wrong. I was obsessed with gaining approval from my peers, but I was never able to fully give that approval to myself.
