    The survey included 1,000 Americans.
     
    “Beyond just millennials, most people now take selfies while on vacation or while celebrating to chronicle special moments with friends and family,” Brown added.
     
    About 63 percent of millennials said that a vacation trip is the most popular place to snap a selfie.

    Nearly 47 percent of the respondents confessed to practicing their facial expressions before taking their picture.
     
    “It is important to make a good impression even if it is through a selfie shared with people you know online or in an email,” Damon explained.
     
    The survey also revealed that a pupil take about seven minutes to take a selfie.
