Getting ready for bed

Everyone has a different way of getting ready for bed. Sometimes people just strip down to their birthday suit and some take a little more time in their nightly routine. There are 3 main things that I do: wash my face, brush my teeth and brush my hair. If you do these 3 things you will be good for the night and you can go to bed!

 Now if there are 3 ways or "settings" to do your night routine: easy, moderate and difficult. For every night routine ranges widely in time. Someone could do their night routine in 10 minutes and another person could do the SAME thing in an hour if they listened to music and relaxed. If you rush you can get everything done (just don't brush your teeth faster). Now I have a very easy night routine, I brush my teeth, put in my retainers and rubber bands, brush my hair (sometimes I don't do it) and wash my face with Noxema. Moderate is: flossing, putting on chapstick and putting on some moisturizer and some other fancy stuff on your face. The last one... Difficult, if you have a TON of time and you like to look good you can spend about 2 hours on your night routine and do everything above AND shave your legs, put on a face mask, take a bath, pop some pimples and more!

Now if you did everything at a good pace it would be how many minutes? Brushing your teeth takes 2 minutes and then you rinse your mouth out, but you also have to get your toothbrush and toothpaste and then put it back takes a minute so 3 minutes for brushing your teeth. Then you wash your face. Now, this varies for everyone but I would say it takes me about 3 minutes to wash my whole face dry it off and put everything back but it may be faster or a lot more detailed for you. Now we have brushing your hair. If you are a guy (49% of the population) it doesn't take you that long unless you have hair that goes down to your lower back. But for a girl to do a quick brush through takes 5 minutes. Now if you are like me and you miss several nights (no one is perfect...) you get a big knot in multiple places so it can take you a LOT longer to just do a brush through. So we have 3 minutes for brushing, 3 minutes for washing my face and 5 minutes for brushing out  hair. That is 11 minutes! Now how fast can you get int your PJ's, plug in your phone and jump into bed?
