My boyfriend, friends and family get so irritated with me sometimes! I'm one of those people that take 1-2 hours to get ready for something! I always have to make sure i'm shaved (legs & arm pits), baithed, and well-dressed! I don't think i'm obsesed with my looks or anything, i'm just weird like that! What can i do to get ready quicker, what do you suggest?

1. Cut down on shower time. Try cutting your usual time in half.
2. Getting dressed does NOT involve a fashion show. Just decide on an outfit and put it on. Do not go around to various people asking if this outfit looks OK. It looks fine. Believe me. Another secret I'll let you in on--when you are going out with your boy friend, he does not care what shoes you wear.
That should give you a start. Good luck.

If you know you are supposed to be ready to go someplace then there is no reason not to plan ahead and have all the shaving etc. done beforehand. I would be annoyed having to wait for someone to get ready too when they had plenty of advance notice. If you have to be out the door say at 2:00 p.m. and know you need at least 2 hours then start getting ready at 11:30. It is inconsiderate to keep people waiting.

Well if you want to make sure your legs and pits are shaved, that's normal...most girls wouldn't want to be seen with hairy legs and armpits!!!!! Being well-dressed is a good thing and it's better than not giving a crap about your appearance at all!!
From what you described, it doesn't really sound like you are vain or obsessed with yourself, but maybe there's more than what you just said?
if there's not, then I think you're completely fine! a lot of women take forever to get ready lol

Use wax strips or creams that make sure you have non- hairy arms and legs for a longer time. Bathe faster if you can and you could try to organise your closet better so you know exactly what you want for the day. You could also choose your clothes the night before.
My parents get annoyed to but my friends understand. :)
And NO WAY are you obssessed with yourself. You just do what any girl would. You want to look nice to feel nice so you can be confident and shine in the world you are in. YAY YOU!!! :D

In the winter, shave your legs once a week. You can shave under your arms every day though. Shower once a day, and keep it to fifteen minutes maximum. Don't worry too much about what you wear. Keep a list of clothing worn if you have to. Believe that you look pretty no matter what, and time might not matter.

im the same way. alot of people are. sometimes what i do if im not to tired/lazy, ill actually put the powder on my brushes etc, put out my eye liner mascara etc on a tray on the counter in the bathroom the NIGHT BEFORE. i will pick out my cloths and hang them either in my room or in the bathroom. i haven't tried this on yet but take a timer and set it in 3-5 min intervals.
get dressed -4 min
makeup -5 min
shave-4 min
also try shaving the night before. basically plan ahead before the morning. it helps alot!
and wake up earlier.
hope i helped.
:D
ps: over all set you goal lower and lower each time. do go back and re-dress etc. tomorrow, set your goal for 30 min.
you can do it if you follow my plan. give it a try i wont hurt :D

first of all, dont take shower EVERYTIME you wanna go out. Once a day is enough and use make-up in the morning and just leave it on and refresh it during the day if u want to. Also u shouldn't shave urself(wherever that might be) all the time. hair is not like sweat so dont worry bout it so much. GL hope that helped

Not obsessed with yourself, you just like looking good. I usually take at least an hour to get ready, and that's without doing my hair. But you can skimp on shaving your legs if you're wearing pants, or the armpits or you're wearing long sleeves (although that feels weird to me so I rarely do it).

Start thinking of others NOT yourself!!
Just pull yourself together girl,else you will be on your lonesome for a long time.
GET A GRIP.TAKE A SHOWER,do your shaving once a week,on the night you do not go out THINK THINK THINK.
You would not do for me,don`t mind waiting a little while BUT!!!!!!!.there are limits to everything
