    My breaking point is about four-and-a-half waking hours.

    Absolutely not! I would at least have to do something with my hair every once in a while. Geesh.

    I could've done a year while back, I think. I used to avoid mirrors all the time years ago, and whenever I did catch my reflection I'd make an ugly face or give myself the finger. Stupid teenagers!

    But now, I'm even thinking of buying a full length mirror for my home!!! Oh my.

    So, no probably not.

    no I need to shave every 3-4 days. sure a lot of the ladies dig the scruffy look but it would bug me after a while.

    Absolutely not. I feel naked without make-up.

    OK, so I just ran to the bathroom and realized it's pretty much impossible to do this if you ever wash your hands in a public bathroom or need to set something on the counter.

    At home, I guess you could cover the mirror, but not out in public.

    Nope, I'd cut my face and miss spots too much

    Nope. I can put in my contacts without a mirror, but I prefer to have one. Especially if I end up with an eyelash or cat hair in my eye.

    Besides... If I spent a year without a mirror, I'm sure I'd spend about 364.5 days with a poppy seed stuck between my front teeth.

    HA!! Nope. I hate my curly hair and couldn't flat iron it to perfection daily if I had no access to a mirror!!

    No, because I brush my teeth everyday and my mirror is right there! Lol

    I could go a week or so because I do not wear makeup much, but there is a giant mirror in both bathrooms.. So...

    Maybe if I was offered an incentive like a huge chunk of money or something.

    I find it hard to believe that one could actually do this. So she put a blanket over the mirror in her house and didn't look at her reflection when she drove.

    What about when you go out in public and use the restroom? Did she close her eyes and feel her way to the sink because she might catch a glimpse of herself? She had to have walked around with her eyes closed all the time because there are reflective surfaces every where.
