Mine is also quite long (chest length) and takes me about 15 minutes in total because my shower is really not very powerful!


That's quick, and my shower is powerful, and that too I take so long - not good!

Wait, do to you take that long to have a shower or just wash your hair?

I brush my hair beforehand, which takes about it 10 mins. When washing, I lather shampoo for about 1 min, wash it off, put conditioner on, leaving it for a little while, then wash it all off.

A shower on it's won takes me around 15 mins., and a shower and hair wash together takes me around 40 mins.

Hmm, I'll trying lathering the shampoo for less time then, that's probably the issue along with over excessively rinsing it off.

wow that's a long time. I have longer than shoulder length hair, and I take about 8-12 minutes (I have a clock in my bathroom :tongue:) to do shampoo, conditioner, facewash and bodywash. do the face and body wash while you have conditioner on, speeds it up a bit.

To be fair I'm A guy with relatively short hair and I spend about 40mins in the bathroom every morning :colondollar:. Shower


Sounds like a huge waste of water and energy to me! I have 3 minute showers, I would get bored if I had to stand there for anything over 10 minutes. What do you do, take a crossword in?!

I have waist length hair and can manage a shower, including hair in about 10 mins. Though I usually spend a lot longer as I'm contemplating the mean of life or just putting off getting out into a cold bathroom.

I brush my hair before getting in then shampoo my roots, rinse, put conditioner in the lengths and sometimes deep condition the very end (ends are bleached blonde so can go really dry), leave the conditioner(s) in while I wash the rest of me. How you manage to spend that long is beyond me! You shouldn't double shampoo your hair as you'll just be stripping it more and more of natural oil which makes it go greasy even quicker (same reason why you shouldn't condition your roots).

I just find it relaxing. It's not possible to wash your face body and hair in 3mins.

I take a little look longer than twenty minutes, I'm surprised you didn't quote me.

How do some people spend 40 minutes - 1 hour in the shower?! That's how long a nice soak in the bath takes me, and that's if I'm reading a book...

When I wash my hair, it's usually about 8 - 10 minutes, about 15 if it's shaving day. 20 if it's really cold and the hot water is nice, or I zone out, at the absolute most.

My legs would get tired after a half an hour!

Well no, I don't just stand there doing nothing, it's because I'm busy with my hair! :L
I wish it didn't take that long, and on days when I don't wash my hair I'm in the shower for about 10 minutes.

About an hour! It's very embarrassing, I like to leave my conditioner on for ages, it makes my hair softer!

Reply 36

I tend to shower for 15-30 minutes, depending on how powerful the shower is and whether or not I'm in a rush.

Reply 37

I only take 10-15 minutes in total, but I have short hair (pixie cut). When I had longer hair I took about 20 minutes.

Although, I have pretty long hair (reaches below my bum), I don't take that long to wash it. Max is 10-15mins cause I shampoo it once properly and then leave the conditioner while I have the rest of my shower and then wash the conditioner out. Takes 25-30 mins for me to have a full shower.

15 minutes if I shower, wash my hair and shave my legs, how does it take other people so long?!
