The effect of these restrictions is unknown, given that beauty services are widely used for stress relief or to enhance confidence. The current study explored the relationship between engagement in appearance\u2010focused behaviors and distress regarding beauty service closure. Participants with high and low levels of dysmorphic concern were compared to determine whether COVID\u201019 restrictions may affect these groups differently.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>An online survey was completed by 216 participants living in Australia. Questions addressed engagement in appearance\u2010focused behaviors during the COVID\u201019 pandemic and attitudes toward beauty service closure.
