What The Heck Wednesday: Running Late!

What-The-Heck-Wednesday n :The fourth day of the week in which a challenge, previously issued to/among the ladies of Three Kitchen Tables, is debuted and their individual methods to complete the challenge are compared

Something in the silence wakes you. And somehow you know. Your eyes burst open and your body jolts to a seated position in one simultaneous motion and immediately you see it: your alarm clock. The alarm clock that didn't go off. You now have 10 minutes before you have to be out the door. 

Unfortunately this happens to each of us far too often. Today we will explore our go-to hair solutions for just such an occasion. 

This week's challenge: "What-The-Heck do you do when you are running late?" 


SARA'S QUICK FIX:
Hair Type: Curls (ringlets)
Length: Medium to Long
Method
1. I squirt a bit of the Tresemme dry shampoo into my hand, flip my head over, and massage it into my roots. It gives me a little lift at my roots and helps with wispies.
2. I spritz Diva Curl's Mister Right all over then flip my hair over once or twice.  DO NOT SCRUNCH!  After thoroughly spritzing my hair, I shape any frizzy patches or unruly curls with damp fingers.
3. If it is humid outside, I use a blow-dryer set on the cool setting then spray a Tresemme hair spray 5 all over.  Now, I'm good to go!!

SARAH'S QUICK FIX:
Hair Type: Wavy
Length: Medium to Long
Method:
1. I use the Tresemme dry shampoo on any spots that look a little too oily. Mostly just around my hairline. I spray it directly to my roots and let it sit while I dress or apply my makeup. Once it is set I comb it through in almost a teasing motion to rub it in and get rid of any visible white powder. 
2. Enter the spin pin. These things are amazing! I pull my hair back and twist it into a bun. Holding the bun secure with one hand, I use the other to twist in my first spin pin, followed by the second (according to the packaging instructions, in opposite directions). 
3. I'll then use bobby pins to secure any fly aways, if necessary. Quick spritz of hair spray to hold it all together and I'm out the door!

KAITE'S QUICK FIX:
Hair Type: Thick & Straight
Length: Short to Meduim
Products: Tresemme Extra Hold Hair Spray, Bobby Pins, & Pony Tail Holder
Method: I'm one that even if I'm extremely late and still only have 10 minutes to get out the door, I have to take a shower. If not, I'm miserable for the rest of the day. 

1. I take about 90 second shower, just enough time for a quick shampoo and conditioner, and hot water over my face. Ahh, that's nice! 

2. I quickly jump out, and blow dry my hair for a good 6 minutes. 

3. Next comes the low pony. Then, I pin my lob (long bob) bangs back, and hit the fancy little pony with some really nice, break the bank, Tresemmè Tres Two Spray - Extra Hold. I think it runs around $3.79 these days. 

4. So that leaves me with approximately 2 minutes to throw on some clothes and head out the door. Oh yea, I brush my teeth during that 90 seconds in the shower. No worries there!
