Lately I feel SO thrown together! LOL. I feel like such a slob...it's taking all I can do just to straighten my hair. If I DO NOT straighten it...it's awful! LOL. So how much time do YOU spend on yourself in the mornings?

Not long. Now that I don't have to sit up, eat some Cheerios, then slowly get out of bed, I pop up, throw some clothes on, do my make-up - at most, 15 or 20. I don't have the patience or willpower to do anything beyond that!

Oh jeez now i feel embarrassed to answer this. If i actually get "ready ready". Like complete hair and makeup done.. An hour and a half or more. I'm kind of a perfectionist (it's more of an ocd thing) So i'd rather wear zero makeup and have my hair not done. Because once I start getting ready i can't half *** it lol everything has to be perfectly done. It's really frustrating!!!!

Depends on if I shave and or wash my hair. It takes me longer to get ready when I wash my hair, because I need to blow dry.... so anywhere between 45 min-1 hr to shower eat makeup, feed step daughter, dogs etc

I take short showers surprisingly I usually end up letting my hair air dry since it's naturally curly, but I do straighten is like crazy. I'd say 30 minutes tops, I don't take that long actually. That would be my mom who takes like two hours to get ready ha.

When i shower, do my hair and make up it takes me about an hour nf a half. If I'm just doing hair and make up about an hour. I refuse to leave my house without looking well put together.

30 mins or less. I put clothes out the night before and get my stuff ready so I don't have to worry about packing the diaper bag or finding what to wear...that saves a lot of time.

Most mornings, about 10 minutes. I always shower the night before so my hair is dry for morning - I usually straighten it a bit to get out the main kinks and waves in the front and then put it up. Makeup is minimal: powder with filled brows, eyeliner and mascara. That's it! I feel put together enough in that time.

If I choose to fully straighten my hair, that takes about 45 minutes on it's own. So I only do it on Fridays when my husband is home with #1 and I don't have to worry about daycare, packing lunches, etc.

You girls are making me feel bad. I don't do my make up (usually) unless it's a special occasion day. lol. On the weekends I'll put on some powder, eyeshadow and mascara but that's pretty much it. It does take me about 30 mins to wash and blow dry my hair, but I only have to do that every other day or so.

I get up at 4 to lift weights most mornings, but then it only takes me about 20 mins to get dressed, makeup on, make lunch and out the door. Longer on the weekends when i shower, dry hair, and put makeup on.

I'm up at 6:30 and out the door by 8:10. I like to take a few minutes to actually eat and relax and start getting ready at 7:30. Luckily, I only work about 10 minutes from my house!
