Low Maintenance Women

I need about 25 minutes after the shower (shower is about 8 minutes). Pretty low-maintenance. I also am very natural with things -- as in, I have never had a manicure or a pedicure, and I go to the salon maybe every 2 months just for a trim. I refuse to color my hair until I actually need to. LOL My purses come from Target and I wear cheap sunglasses... definitely low-maintenance there.

It was mostly the IDGAF part that makes you seem unnecessarily angry. And the OP was about women who consider themselves Low Maintenance and how long getting ready takes them. I wasn't saying that you must get ready in any allotted time nor that they cater to anyone other than you.

Ooops. Well yes, I suppose IDGAF seems a bit aggressive. I suppose I just associate it with Nicki Minaj flipping her hair back or Janelle Monae dancing across a screen.

If you weren't saying that women should meet a certain standard to be "low maintenance" or that women should be "low maintenance" then why as a bald man who I would presume doesn't wear makeup, would you care how long it takes ladies to get ready? Hmm?

Because I disagreed with the other thread's assertion that roughly 2% of women are naturally pretty enough to not need to get dolled up everyday. And just simple curiosity really. I am a little surprised that some of the women here can get ready in less time than I can.

Though, I am not sure what my lack of hair has anything to do with this thread.

you are a bald demeaning person. GTFO.

Being forced to shave my head every three days makes me hate women.

*sniff sniff* Is that privilege I smell?

I bathe in privelege.

LOL I need to check out this other thread. I take about 15 minutes to shower, but then about 10 minutes to do my hair and makeup, maybe 5 minutes to get dressed. Most of my time "getting ready" in the morning is taking care of my kids and getting breakfast and lunch together. Oh and packing my gym bag too

To walk to the end of the driveway to put the kids on the bus & chat w/neighbors: 10 min

To look decent and publicly presentable & grocery shop: 40 min

To look and feel fabulous & meet my husband for lunch: 60 min

The occasion dictates the time spent. I could throw myself together and fly out the door in 15min but I wouldn't feel good about my appearance . I like to feel and look put together when I leave the house. I don't think that makes a woman high maintenance IMO.

Wow I suck as a girl. It takes me more than 30 minutes to pick an outfit-even if I already decided what to wear. Hair and makeup is a whole different project. I'm impressed with all you ladies ready to go in record time. And my husband shall never hear of any of you - it's taken years for him to quit griping about how long it takes me to be ready to go, he doesn't need to know there are alternatives.

5-10 minutes for me to get ready for work. 10-15 minutes to get ready if I'm going out and want to dress up special.

10 mins for shower + 10 minutes dressing up+hair..usually only lipstick as make up..done!!

Sans shower... I'm ready in like 10 to 15 minutes. Clothes... hair... go!

This. I hit the alarm clock several times, lay in bed refusing to get until I have to. Once I actually get OUT of bed, I'd say about ten minutes to get dressed and ready to go. I have no patience with make up, and my hair does whatever it wants - as long as it's brushed and looks presentable, I'm happy.
