Poll: On touching up

[Griffolion]

So, as you may have guessed from the title, I'm curious as to how long every day you spend "touching up"; shaving, making up your hair, putting on makeup, [footnote]don't pooh-pooh this, a guy I knew that used eyeliner every day was a killer with the ladies[/footnote]the like. Just a matter of curiosity.

I, for example spend about a minute each day brushing my hair, because I don't like it being tangled up, and I shave once every two weeks. I like having a beard, but I don't like it being too long, and I don't have a trimmer. That's...how I like looking. [footnote]Other people (by which I mean everyone but my mother) doesn't like it, although my dad only dislikes that I have a beard. Feel free to put in notes like these in your own posts.[/footnote] You can see the overall results of this on the picture on the left.

You might want to report your friend if he's a killer with the ladies...


After shower etc, i will spend about a minute going through my hair with a very very small amount of wax just to keep it in check for the day but not noticeable. I'll shave maybe once a week because my facial hair doesn't grow fast/thick.

I didn't consider showering or teeth-brushing as "grooming", because I interpret grooming as a vanity thing rather than a hygiene thing, so I voted less than one minute. All I do in an effort to make myself presentable is run a brush through my hair... sometimes.

Totally thought this thread was about something else.... But on topic about 10 minutes every day if you bring it all together, after a while of seeing exactly the same people every day you tend to stop caring anyway

I shower, brush my teeth, and use deodorant.

Counting my shower about ten minutes if not then maybe five. I only really run a brush or a comb (depending on whats on the counter) through my hair. I'm to lazy to shave or groom my beard so I'm always a little sgraggly. X3

I spend about 15 minutes every week keeping my buzz cut nice and tight. Shaving facial hair, well, meh. Mostly once a week, every now and then twice a week, sometimes not for a month. Don't really care about it. Most of my body hair is trimmed to a neat uniform length because that's what I prefer, this is also about 15 minutes of work, once a week. That's all, really.

So, that's around 45 minutes a week, which would lead to an average of about 6 and a half minute each day. There you go.

I'm assuming showering doesn't count, so 1 minute.

 

[Broady Brio]

Shave like 1-2 times a week with aftershave. Deodorant. Sort hair out so it's not bed hair any more.

Bout 5 minutes. 10 minutes if I shave.

Depends on some outside things that may make me take longer, but usually only 5-10 mins.

 

[Marzirocks]

Depends upon where I'm going. If I'm working, 20 minutes. Including a shower. Not much to do when your hair goes up into a bun and you wear scrubs.

Non working day, 30-40ish minutes if I style my hair properly.

Need to look nice? An hour... shower, makeup, hair, getting dressed, etc.

Wait. An hour if I already know what I'm wearing. Sometimes you just can't decide on what to wear! (Much to the annoyance of the boyfriend. Poor guy.)

If im going out or got a gig then eyeliner aswell, otherwise to much hassle =)

If a shower counts, then I'd say about 35 mins a day, but I answered as if a shower doesn't count and said 5-10 mins I don't use make up but I apply facial creams and whatnot.
