How do you find the time?

Help!

My problem: I have found a routine but not the time to do it! And I dont know how to sleep on it or fix it once it gets unruly.

Background: I have wavy hair that air dries into a poofy mess that looks awful. I usually wear it in a messy bun that doesnt look very nice, or I occasionally straighten it, which I don't like to do because of the damage to my already dry hair.

I have found a decent wavy hair routine that gives good results for my dry, medium to fine wavy hair, which seems to have a medium to high porosity. Its still a little unruly but looks so much better than my frizzy mess!

How and when?: I usually work out in the evening and need to shower at night before bed to get rid of the sweat. But when I do my hair at night its a mess in the morning. Do I need to restart the whole process again in the morning? Shower twice a day?

Mornings are usually pretty rushed for me. Is there any other way to fix the hair in the morning more quickly? Do I go to work with wet hair and hope for the best? How often do I need to do this to have nice hair every day? Please share your wisdom.

The routine:

  1. Condition then wash hair using renpure tea tree oil line, but use head and shoulders once a week.

  2. Condition again without rinsing it all out. (Currently using aussie waves or renpure).

  3. Dry lightly with a tshirt.

  4. A little bit of mousse on very damp hair

  5. Air dry mostly, but a little diffusing to help speed it up.

  6. Help train any waves that are getting unruly by wrapping and curling around my finger while still wet. (Not perfected as some parts still breakaway)
