when do you shower- am or pm?

So I'm totally an am shower person but I love a long shower and doing it in the am gives me a five minute shower time...

those of you who shower in the pm- what do you do with your hair? how do you keep it from getting indented during the night?

Re: when do you shower- am or pm?

  • I have to shower in the morning or I have major hair issues.  I'd love to see the responses to this!

  • I used to shower in the morning and never thought that would change.  But since having Stella and having to be to work by 7:30, I tried showering and night and I love how much time it saves me in the mornings.  I go to bed with my hair wet and just straighten it in the a.m.  If I'm feeling lazy I'll just wear it up.

  • I take showers in the pm (or sometimes during naptime) My hair is long and thick and I let it air out for a little while (if it's super cold I'll dry it) and twist it up and wear it like that to bed.

    It's usually still damp the next day so I can style it then with a flat iron - or put some stuff in it and blow dry it with a round brush. But 99.9% of the time it's in a ponytail anyway.

    My mom is a night shower-er too - she has short hair. She has a spray bottle that she soaks her hair with the next morning before styling.

  • My only choice is to shower at night after the kids go to bed around 10pm.

    I shower, blow dry (leaving it damp).

    In the morning I touch up with the flat iron.  I feel like it's a good strategy since I like my hair to be completely dry for the flat iron.

  • I shower in the a.m. I am a 'hot sleeper' and I get too sweaty, and my hair gets oily. I could shower at night if I knew I wasn't going to leave the house the next day, but I really prefer to not feel gross all day.

  • for me it really depends... but typically I shower in the afternoon while Evan naps. If I have something going on (like today, we had some friends over for a playdate) then I'll grab a quick shower in the morning while Evan watches a cartoon or something. I also like to take bubble baths at night, so if I do that, then I won't shower the next day until the afternoon or evening.

    I only wash my hair every 2-3 days, so on days I don't wash it I just give the roots a quick blast of heat from the blow dryer, spray some dry shampoo and run the flat iron over it. On the 3rd day it's almost always pulled back in a ponytail or bun!

  • I always shower in the morning...except when Evan was a newborn, sometimes it was afternoon/evening by the time I got a shower.  I also like to take a quick shower before bed to help wind down, or if I have exercised...which has been awhile..plus, it is a chance for DH and I to share a shower...

  • I'm a depends..... On the days I work at 8, I shower before getting dd up at 7.  If I work at 11 or on my days off, I shower after she eats breakfast and is playing on her own.  I hardly ever shower at night unless I am going out somewhere, but never before bed.
