Multiple outlets report that many holidaymakers spend over £150 on pre-travel beauty services as part of “prepping” routines before trips. Citing data from Clearpay, the reports say activities commonly planned before travel include haircuts, facials, manicures and pedicures. The articles frame the spending as a typical cost incurred ahead of holidays rather than during the trip itself. The coverage suggests that demand for these services is high enough that customers are using buy-now-pay-later options such as Clearpay to manage the expense. While the specific total varies by individual, the figures reported indicate the cost is “typically” above £150. Overall, the outlets present the same theme: pre-holiday beauty treatments represent a significant, recurring expense for travellers, reflecting personal grooming and appearance expectations ahead of time away.
