To date, face research has focused largely on the appearance status (parlor going tendencies) and narcissism, how these variables are affecting each other. Appearance status have two basics dimensions one is associated with the parlor (Salon or Beauty Parlor) going people and other is associated with non-parlor going people, here we are interested to see whether the narcissism is high or low in parlor going people or non-parlor going people. The term narcissism involves grandiosity, a lack of empathy for other people, and a need for admiration. People with this condition are frequently described as arrogant, self-centered, manipulative, and demanding. They may also concentrate on grandiose fantasies (e.g. success, beauty, brilliance) and may be convinced that they deserve special treatment. These characteristics typically begin in early adulthood and must be consistently evident in multiple contexts, such as at work and in relationships. Finding reveals that narcissism is high in the people having parlor going tendencies, this study also reveals that men, on average, are more narcissistic than women.
