Your hair in the mornings?

What's your routine in the morning for your hair and how long does it take you?

I’m so jealous of people who can brush and go. I’ve got super thick slightly wavy hair but doesn’t sit nice in waves. So either wash, dry and straighten takes about 30 - 45 mins. Or more usually especially on a week day, shove in a bun, 2 mins. If I leave it to air dry it will still be damp in the evening after washing in the morning, it’s that thick. Sometimes I do the curly girl hair method and let it air dry to maximise waves but they only last a day.

I just comb through it and put it up into a bun or clip. I wash it once a week but usually in the evening. It's naturally straight and waist length.

I leave the house at 6am so I always wash, dry and straighten my hair (with heat protection spray) in the evening, so in the morning I just brush and go. I will use a bit of anti-frizz serum if it’s a muggy or drizzly day but that’s it.

Brush and go, if I remember to brush it.

Silk pillowcase ftw.
