About 50 times per character... when I was creating them.

0, because I don't spend real money on something so pointless.

I second that intelligence an anyone who spends $10 just to change some cartoon looks really needs to see a doctor or a few of them.

well, I look at it like this. We didn't have to spend REAL money to continually play the game and so I saved money every month because of this. I took that REAL money and changed a character that I was totally dissatisfied with after I realized that no campaign in GW was going to offer decent looking armor for him. So I took my REAL money, made the changes and to be honest, I am quite happy with it. If you all don't want to spend your REAL money on this stuff, so be it, but just because someone else decided to doesn't meant that their intelligence is in question.

*shrug* There's a decent demand for it in MMOs and $10's not all that bad (be it for 5 tokens for everything but name & gender or for 1 token for everything but name) compared to what other games charge ($15 for 1 in WoW, though includes a name change and there's a game currency barber to do hair/face/special race details, and 1500 Station Cash ($15) in EQ2, as the most easily found examples). And when you consider that we don't have subscription fees on top of that...

I changed 4 of my characters once, and I'm much happier with the way they look. And I have 1 Makeover still left incase I get tired of one of the others or the 'new" looks. If it had been one character for 9.99 I wouldn't have bought it, but its worth it for each character being one makeover credit. It made some of my characters more likeable to be.

Zero times. Changing armor or headgear is enough for me.

Only once but I think a basic style change really should be for ingame gold or trade items.

I guess if you really don't like the look of your char there is always the ninja mask or blindfold

I only bought the extreme makeover because my main character was a Mesmer. I made him male....he was ugly and I regretted making my title slave a male since most of their armors are better on females IMO. I was so happy when I finally got a female Mesmer with all the titles and work my Male accomplished.

I may get a reg makeover for a couple other chars but that's much later on.

TY again anet so I don't have to look at my ugly male mesmer anymore.

ALSO she looks really cool with canthan hairstyle and a tyrian face. I love it.

This. And even if I had it, I'd probably only change one hairstyle due CLIPPING issue's.

I've changed two chars once with the stylist npc.

There's no way I would be able to justify changing them more than once due to the cost. If there was some unlimited use stylist, I'd probably buy that and if that were the case, chances are I'd use it every day, maybe more.
