"Your outer appearance reveals your state of mind. Good grooming is usually an expression of well-being. It indicates the will and the ability to follow faithfully habit patterns which denote mental health.
The mental attitude which you hold toward people in particular and life in general usually determines the over-all approach that you take toward grooming. Consideration for others and respect for yourself make you want to look your best. Having high standards of grooming indicates a good mental attitude and a zest for living.
Cleanliness and fragrance make for daintiness and femininity. They are forms of loveliness available to everyone. Daintiness is a habit of every well-groomed person."
