"Leave in for three minutes" - what do you do?

[Glib Gurl]

I just got finished using three different hair treatments, each of which said "leave in for three minutes. then rinse . . . ." Okay, um, what am I supposed to do in my shower for those three minutes? I don't have that much body hair at all so every once in a while I can shave, but really . . . what do y'all do?

Yes, I'm serious!

I usually scrub my feet. I keep a pumice stone and a tube of foot scrub and go to work.

I would shave when i start up that stretch mark treatment thing, i'm gonna do that instead

Suds up my puff and get to scrubbing.

 

[HoneyDew]

I shower, use my exfoliator, buff my feet, massage my scalp, wash my face, shave, anything. 3 min is not that long girl, there are plenty of things to do!

I do all of my initial steps leaning backwards over my kids' tub using a shower sprayer and a little stool to sit on. When I do the last conditioner I get in the shower and let the heat work while I do my "shower stuff."

If you put the conditione on before you do everything else, it should be on your hair for at least 3 minutes. You must be one of them speed-showerers, huh GG?

 

[♦K.O♦]

I do another round of washing.

Three minutes in the shower don't last long at all. You can give your feet a nice scrub.

 

[hOnii]

this is why i begin by washing my hair. then, when i have in the conditioner, i take a shower/shave.

Get out my facial scrub soap and do a mini-facial. The steam from the shower opens up my pores, makes my skin baby soft the next day

I really wash...I mean it could take a minute but its well worth it...then I get my feet in, maybe get some sort of exfoliation in.....

 

[sareca]

Three products that say three minutes each? nine minutes? Nawl, I gotta get out. I'd get out and wear a towel until I was completely done. I can't hang out in the shower for 10 minutes.

When I do my hair in the shower. I wash my hair first, apply conditioner, when wash myself. Rinse first conditioner, apply the second one and scrub my feet. Rinse second conditioner, apply third put on a plastic cap and get out of the tub. Dry off and rinse the third conditioner in the kitchen sink.

First i wash hair then put in condioner. I then wash myself while waiting for the conditoner to set in

Girl I can't even believe this thread. I'm in the shower a minimum of 30 mins, I can't get out any earlier than that.

LOL, it's something about your phrasing "suds my 'puff'", that's so funny! I figured you meant one of those puffs for the liquid soap, but maybe you meant another "puff"....

 

[Glib Gurl]

I really am! Without washing my hair, I am completely done in the shower in five minutes. Boom!

LOL I meant the one for liquid soap.

I was doing Nexxus treatments to get rid of chlorine -- so Aloe Rid, Aloe Rid Treatment, and then Humectruss (sp?)

I do the same.
