I remember reading in Morris Mandel’s coumn in Jewish Press that any possible thing a women can do to make herself more attractive should by all means be done. It is part of feeling good about oneself that one is clean and neat. It is not healthy to let oneself go. One of the first signs of mental illness or depression is when you see a person who is wearing dirty clothes and looks unkempt. One should always try to look his or her best at all times. It is part of being professional as well. Many job interviews and promotions are probably decided based more on appearance, than on actual skills. The reason is that one who pays meticulous attention to every detail of his appearance will probably pay meticulous attention to every detail of his job. One who is shlumpy about appearance will probably be shlumpy about the job. This holds true for men and women.
