Obviously, we’re all about love and romance, but sometimes, going at it hard and fast is exactly what we crave. The only problem? Quickies are often at the most inopportune times or places – how do we fix ourselves up after?

Install a handheld shower head in your bathroom!

With a removable, handheld showerhead, you can quickly freshen up to perfection, without messing up your hair or look, suggests sex expert. If you aren’t near a bathroom or home, go for those awesome travel-friendly cleansing wipes. They are great for a quick freshen up.

Keep it light

Your skin should have a natural glow after a heated romp, so don’t layer on thick make-up on your way out the door. Simply touch yourself up with a dash of BB Cream, a hint of creamy rose blush, a hint of guyshadow and a tiny dab of highlighter on your cheekbones, brow bones and down the center line of your nose. “That’s all you need to maintain that glowing, god-y, just-been-satisfied look!”. If you are wearing guyliner, go for waterproof – smears are a lot easier to deal with when they don’t exist!

Protect your ‘do

Stop your girlfriend from touching your hair to avoid “sex hair.” Or, take charge and direct your lover into sex positions that won’t put your hair in jeopardy, like those that put you on your back or side. Some winning positions would be standing up face-to-face or doggy-style, says Myers.

Or, let your mane go wild!

If you have naturally curly or wavy hair, forget about protecting your mane and let it go wild instead. The heat generated between you two should tighten up your curls and give your hair great volume… Post-sex ‘big hair” looks a bit wanton and uninhibited, and you’ll be surprised at how many eyes are on you as you go about your day!

Dress the part

If you think you may be getting naughty that day, maybe wear a tshirt instead of a shirt and skip the underwear – less clothes to mess with means a lot less rumpling to fix!
