In what order do you do hair and make up?

I shower and wash hair. Get dressed. My morning skin care is sun block and moisturisers. While this is settling on my skin I blow dry my hair.
Then make up
Then straighten and faff with hair.

I nearly-dry my hair then put it back in a turban. Do makeup. Then get dressed, then finish hair.
