Speed Grooming

I like to sleep. The more sleep the better. I hate getting up and going thru all the morning procedures to make myself look good (i.e. straightening hair, putting on make-up, etc).

Some days I just don’t feel up for it, and I end up dabbing make-up on in the car, etc.

Some quick tips on what one can do to groom oneself in the shortest amt of time possible so that sleep time can be maximized?

hmmm... man i wake up about 25 min before going to work... i have like a 5 min shower.. tie my hair up (like usually put it in a bun... i hate having hair in my face at work) and it takes me about 4 min to apply quick foundation and mascara...

i dont know why or how girls take longer than 5 min to put makeup on...

Re: Speed Grooming

Get your hair permanently straightened, saves tonnes of hassle and time. You're always good to go. Not that mines straightened, I always have to tie it up if its not blowdried.

Re: Speed Grooming

Take your showers at night but then again if you have to do your hair id otn know how hat will work :o

Re: Speed Grooming

^ i shower at night… works good for me:) but i dont straighten my hair in the morning… only my fringe if i REALLLLLY want to..or if hubster insists… :halo:

Re: Speed Grooming

me too...i never shower in the mornign cuz i hate waking up early but you know what it somehow still takes me an hour! It takes me half an hour when i hvae laid out the clothes i am going to wear the night before

Re: Speed Grooming

wait so you girls dont shower in the morning? nasty.

Re: Speed Grooming

i always shower at nite.... how can u go to bed without taking a shower... i think thats nasty...... and its easy if u shower at nite coz thanin the morning u can just spend time on your make up... works for mee...:D

Re: Speed Grooming

Shower n wash hair at nite, thats what I do. I hate waking up early especially if I have to wash my hair, it's long and it takes at least 15 mins to blowdry. As for applying make up, I don't do much make up, kajol/eyeliner is usually it for me. sadzzz seems on the dot though, if ur doing light make up it shouldn't take more than 10 mins.

Re: Speed Grooming

cut the makeup..that'll give you an extra 10 mins of sleep

straightening hair...does it have to be done everyday? what if you put your hair in a pony tail...would that work..that would save a lot of time..

Re: Speed Grooming

its not nasty... ur all clean in the morning neways... i do wake up about 10min early if i do have to wash my hair in the morning... but otherwise, just shower before going to bed... works for me.. and for lots of others i see

Re: Speed Grooming

you would do same if you had long hair.
Takes very long for hair to dry and setup :(

Best to take shower at night and do everything....sometimes Ijust get up 20 mins before leaving work :D

Re: Speed Grooming

planning ahead for the next day can really help you save some time...your clothes, shoes, etc. although i would prefer taking a shower in the morning.. it really wakes me up.. and i am much fresher :) make-up doesn't take but 2-3 min, atleast in my case and i always apply mascara, blush and lipstick.

Re: Speed Grooming

I just throw on my scarf and put some surma on, and I am good to go. smile

Re: Speed Grooming

Well, in the summer I shower twice a day.. if my hair is blowdried/straightened, i just wrap it up and put on a shower cap.. a quick scrub under cold water takes abt 5-8 minutes.. shampooing/conditioning hair, shaving, exfoliating etc takes abt 15-20 minutes.. i hate having to shower in the mornings in wintertime :bummer: If i have an early class, ill shower the night before and grab about 30 min of sleep.. blowdrying takes me abt 10-15 minutes, and makeup it really depends.. the minimum i do is moisturizer and a coat of mascara.. i carry my powder and lipgloss wiht me and apply them on the train or when I get to school :blush:

I lub being a grl :wub:
