I don't think it's an esteem thing for me so much as a boredom thing....if I could blink to change my hair or skin color add temporary tats jewel/stone based embellishments etc I totally would spend forever customizing like I do on game characters but I like my natural hair color length etc it's already optimized to go from work to play etc it you know 5 minutes later if I could do silver hair with purple highlights and a stream of butterflies trailing down my neck I'd do that. But give that 5 minutes and I'd want turquoise checkerboard with white. No way would I ever do these thing because I have to goto work and it still takes a while to wash/grow out and I would have little tolerance for red growing in atop my perfect checkerboard but no desire to maintain the blue indefinitely.
