My wife wears the least amount of make up possible and usually has her hair tucked into a hat when we're in WDW.
Probably has something to do with the fact that I have her up at the crack of dawn every day of our vacation.
Nah seriously she's a low key type of gal, wears make up but she's also not afraid to go 'natural'

Sad to say but I'm probably more concerned about my looks than she is.
I want to make sure I match, have a decent smelling cologne and I'll usually make sure I got some new duds for each of our trips. That's the quido in me.
I mean I ain't GTL or anything but I got a little bit of that "gotta look good" thing going on in my head....even though the end result probably ain't as good as I think...haha!!

I of course shower but it's always before bed so I can hop right up and get going in the morning.

You don't have to go to any trouble on my account when we meet up for that beer in Sept/Oct !!

I voted for mix because I usually have several frizzy, wavy hairs out of place. I take an hour to an hour and a half to go anywhere. I do the hair and makeup and freshen it all up at the parks. Like @Kristamouse, I do not wear shorts. I will buy new sundresses or skirts for my trip and a cute hat to match it all. Also, I usually take two showers a day.

I do minimal make-up and hair. I might flat iron it but not curl it because it takes way too long. I wear my hair different every day so it might be down then pulled back the next day and in a ponytail after that. Make-up wise if I have a tan no eye shadow just mascara, minimal blush, face powder and lipstick or gloss. Always something on my lips. As for clothes, not new nor ironed. I try to pack as neatly as possible and hang up nicer things as soon as we unpack. I suppose if something looked horribly wrinkled I'd iron it but would rather not.
 
I'm definitely a mix. The first day, I'm usually moderately dressed up. My parents instilled in me from the time I could dress myself that flying was a special occasion, so usually I'll wear a comfy sundress and flip flops. The rest of the days I live in athletic shorts and shirts from past shows I've been in. Crocs and flip flops are also my friends. :)
I do wear full make-up, but that's what I do pretty much everyday, so it only takes about five minutes.
Now as for hair, last time I was at Disney, I read something in Cosmo that I tried and absolutely loved. I braided my hair Pippi Longstocking-style, ran my hair-straightener over it, sprayed it, ran the straightener over it again, and took them out. It made my hair really fluffy and pretty, but also easy to put up in a bun when it gets annoying or I go on a roller coaster (whichever comes first). Otherwise, a bun or ponytail, depending on how hot it is.
A pedicure and new pair of Jackie-O sunglasses are a must for me! :)

We need time for things to happen.
Slightly off topic, going to see a snazzy fancy new wallet ? Or are you going to risk another wallet adventure this year ?
Oh boy, you know that came up the other day over supper. We were talking about how fortunate we are that we found that thing.
That's a very good point though. As much as I love that thing I think it's time to get a wallet that doesn't look like a folded up park map.

I'm a guy but I make sure I'm "presentable"....probably the metro portion of me. I am very particular on how I look especially my hair...lol (but hey I'm 42 with a full head of non-colored, no grey hair). I have to match head to toe and that includes my shoes/sneakers (I brought 4 pair with me last trip...different colors to match different outfits). Yeah, yeah, yeah....even my wife thinks it's pathetic and makes fun of me too but I do not take more than 30 mins to get ready including the shower.

What's funny is my best friend/travel companion this past trip (in Feb) is the polar opposite of me....showered, clothes on, ears on and he was ready to go.

Yes, those shorts do make your butt look big. <kidding>

I have to be well ironed and starched before I show up. It has to do more with how I feel when waiting in line, and how the day will wear on my clothes, than any sort of other personal needs. I don't want to be "that guy" standing next to you in the sweaty and run down t-shirt...and anyone who has been to the parks enough knows EXACTLY who "that guy" is...

I prefer to look charming and dapper in my finest tuxedo that was hand stitched in Milan. I top that off with a cane, a top hat, and a monocle. I wear white gloves, and make sure my shoes are spotless and buffed before I depart in the morning. I groom my rather obnoxious mustache, and comb my so not a single hair is not out of place. I then escort my date for the evening, arms locked. She will be wearing an elegant, red evening gown. She will wear long white gloves, the highest of the high heels, and ruby red lip stick. She will have a beauty mark slightly above and to the left of her lips. Her hair will be long and wavy, with no split ends. She'll have freshly polished nails, which are painted red. Top that off with a pearl necklace, diamond earrings, diamond rings, and a bracelet made of pure silver. The last touch is a boa gently draped on the joints of her arms. And we both speak with only the finest British accents.

I chose the primped option but it's less of a polished country club look and more of a cleaned up Courtney Love or dressed down Pink look. I buy a few new and bring a few old dresses and skirts and I spend about 30 - 45 minutes each morning on shower, hair, makeup.

The whole, "Not a hair out of place" may not exactly describe me since I tend to have punk rock looking hair - sometimes I do a faux hawk (used to have a real Mohawk but I grew it out), I may do some crazy spiked hair or some mini pigtails or big hair accessories. I will bring a straightener, mousse, hair spray, spiking gel, leave in conditioner and spray gel.

Makeup consists of sunscreen, tinted moisturizer, concealer, powder, blush, lip balm, lip liner, lipstick, waterproof eyeliner and mascara. Sometimes eye shadow but I often wear bright red or deep burgundy lipstick so the eyes just get a few good coats of mascara and some eyelash curling.

I also do all over sunscreen, moisturizer, sometimes a tinted leg spray if I feel like covering up a couple of scars on my legs and my dark veins.

Clothes are set out the night before and usually consist of a dress or a rock band shirt and a skirt, coordinating undies and accessories (earrings, rings and sometimes a necklace) and either sneakers or sandals.

I realize this seems like a lot to some people but it makes me happy, I love doing my hair and makeup. I think I look good with and without it. My pool days are happily spent with just sunscreen and lip balm (and the most adorable bathing suit ever, of course). I enjoy looking back at Disney photos though and seeing myself looking this way and as long as it makes me happy I figure that's all that matters.

I always buy new t-shirts and I have a special pair of REALLY comfortable Nike sneakers that I call my Disney sneakers. Purchased them in 2009 and only wear them to DisneyWorld. I do the same with my cargo shorts. I have about 8 pairs that I ONLY wear to Disney so they are pretty much brand new just like my sneakers.

Agreed....smell is important. My family is always worried about smells and Steve is extremely particular about not smelling.

Wish my husband was more like you! I just asked him to buy some new shorts to take on the trip because most were ruined by painting or doing car projects, etc. He said to me, "why? These shorts look good!" Ugh. Only one stain instead of five :) Needless to say, in five days, he will be packing all new shorts! I won!

I bought new shoes for the last trip. They'll be good for the next one.

I'll usually buy a few funny graphic t-shirts but other than that it's the normal vacation look.

Of course I dress up when I go to WDW. I want to be as presentable as everybody else. So a tie and in the evening a jacket when dining, or when enjoying a live jazz band aboard the Empress Lilly or on a cruise on Seven Seas Lagoon.

Wait, wrong decade...
