saving time on morning routine

**Jayne** · 11-10-2004, 09:14 AM

I was wondering how much time you all spend each morning, showering, doing your hair, makeup etc....I feel like it takes me forever just to shower, do my hair and dress, and I don't do the makeup thingy.....Anyone?????????

15 min. I'm a quick shower person (zoom zip out because I don't like to waste time & money. If I were at a hotel I'd take my sweet time in the shower)and I set my clothes out ahead of time. Kids can't believe how fast I can shower, sorta like a nascar pit crew & I try to better my pit stop time.

Since I'm not working right now it takes ma about 20 minutes tops to shower,shave, and get ready each morning.

I don't wear makeup unless I am working so that is cut out.
I don't blow dry my hair either so that saves me about 20 minutes.

It takes me around 2 hours to get ready on the days I do wear my make-up and fix my hair. My hair is so long and thick that it takes an hour to blow dry it. My shower is about 25 minutes. After blowdrying my hair, my arms need rest, so I wait for about 30 minutes then I go do my make-up, which I can put on flawlessly in 5 minutes. I only wear foundation, powder, eyeliner, mascara, and lipstick. Looks more natural that way......

It takes me around 45 minutes to get ready, shower, blow dry hair and make-up

If I wasn't interrupted I could get it done so much faster, but as it is, it takes around 1/2 hour. However, if I want to go somewhere faster, I can cut that in half. I don't wash my hair everyday and I usually take my bath/shower at night.

Takes me about 45 minutes and I do it daily (maybe not on Sundays....depends on what we're doing).

About 30-40 minutes to shower, shave, blowdry my hair, put on makeup, and dress. That's when I'm moving at a pretty fast clip.

15 minutes, tops. I wash my hair every day but I only blowdry it when I'm working - that adds 5 minutes more, mainly because I let it dry naturally while I eat breakfast so it's almost dry when I blowdry it.
