If in order to make her attractive she must first get her teeth fixed, have some plastic surgery, work out religiously, where make up and dress very nicely.....
Does vanity differ from person to person depending on how much help they need?

if it's important for someone to feel good about the way they look then they should do what it takes you can't spend your life unhappy when you can fix it .. it can change someones entire personality make a person confident and even help then achieve there goals without the fear of rejection .. today's world is very competitive it's hard to get what you deserve and want if your outer appearance isn't of the standard people like to look at ..they only put easy on the eye people to work with the public it's sad but true!

I think people should be most concerned with their physical and mental well-being and that attractiveness will follow. If you take care of yourself and are healthy, then you will look healthy. Things like teeth though, should definitely be fixed if they are missing, broken, or very messed up because they could be more prone to infection otherwise, and also the reason of feeling good and smiling more confidently. Working out to get in shape and eating right will already just make a person look better and they'll feel better about themselves as well as making them healthy and preventing future injury and disease.
If you smoke, quit smoking, it halt collagen production causing early aging and wrinkles and it is HORRIBLE for ones health.
Plastic surgery I don't believe is ever necessary... unless you've suffered horrible burns or that you've lost so much weight that the excess skin now hangs and gets infected with bacteria. If there is no medical reason for plastic surgery, I'd advise against it.
Dressing nicely doesn't take much effort. Get someone who you trust's help in helping you pick out nice flattering clothes if you don't know what would look right. Work with what you have, flatter your body, don't just buy whatever looks good on the size 0 mannequins.
Good luck!

your question reveals much.......
firstly, why does anyone ever need plastic surgery to become attractive? unless of course everyone is now having to conform to hollywoods idea of beautiful? Also, you say the person must work out religiously to become attractive, may be interpreted as saying unless everyone has a perfect toned body they are not attractive.
Everyone can make the most of what they have, no one needs to feel so ugly they must have surgery or do drastic things to be considered beautiful.
the dictionary says of vanity:
Excessive pride in one's appearance or accomplishments; conceit- so you see, it is not wrong to make sure you look attractive and take care of ones appearance, and dress nicely etc, it is vanity to become obsessed by it.

Good question.
Even our avatars are unnaturally pretty..!
We're all encouraged to be vain to some extent. Even men now are being majorly tapped into by the cosmetics companies, who realised they were missing half their market. Difficult job, but they've finally got lots of dudes moisturising and exfoliating!
I try my best to look nice - make up, hair, clothes. Although I'll spend only 10 minutes getting myself sorted each morning. But it's hard to know where the boundary is.
We look down on these people with fake this-and-that and facelifts and tummy tucks. We think they are a bunch of losers and we take pride that we are all natural, etc. But where does the category of improving your appearance and making the most of what you've got end? Isn't liposuction just like getting your hair cut? What a puzzle..

Looks like you have been watching too much commercials that feature perfect bodies, hairdos, teeth, clothing etc. That is not real and it never shows the inner self. They say beauty is skin deep. A guy looking for superficial beauty will drop you on the first wrinkle. I think internal beauty lasts forever. As a man, I prefer that for a life long companion. Don't let consumerism dictates how you should look and feel. You can be much better than that.

Good question. I personally think a woman should do everything she can reasonably do to enhance what God gave her. She needs to find her best feature (like, say she has beautiful eyes) and work from there. I don't think it should be her number one priority (her looks), but I don't think there's anything wrong with doing your best to look nice. It's important for your self-esteem to put your best face forward. As long as her looks are not an obsession.

There is a fine line between self-esteem and vanity. That line varies from person to person.

the way she provides herself particular she would desire to be warm yet while she's a b*tch then she would desire to have a complicated time looking a guy . same is going for a guy he would desire to be remarkable-looking yet finally end up being a actual jerk thereby any actual charm is going bye bye .
