The Bigfooty Official Bathing and Cleansing Thread

[peternorth]

Hi all,

With summer finally here, thought this place needed a thread about maintaining hygiene.

How many times do you shower/bathe?

Once I was a twice a day showerer. However when water restrictions arrived I learnt to adapt and lather up in mornings only *

In normal conditions whereupon office work conditions prevail, it's a morning shower to refresh and wash away any night crusties.

I have acquaintances in south east asia who shower once a day, in the evening. Do you subscribe to the theory that a shower before bed assists in reaching REM and deep sleep?










* unless participating in heavy duty activity during the day

Hygiene aint all its cracked up to be.All you clean freaks lose your bodies ability to deal, then when you do come across something nasty, it gets really nasty. Sometimes for others, because if your body had had natural defenses.........

Deodorants, some soaps , shampoos ect are also heavily linked to cancers..


If you post it,they will come.....

All in honesty, pretty much everything is linked to cancer these days.

Once a day in the morning. Maybe at night if I go to the gym or pool. I always used to shower at night as a kid but I don't feel awake or ready for work without it.

Morning and night usually for me, if I go to the gym on my lunch break then I will have a shower then as well

I know, look at astrology. It's a bloody religon, full of cancers...

On a serious note, there is alternatives to the chemicals they put in general hygiene products..

In the morning, in the evening and after sex. I have three showers on my birthday.

 

[Deliverance]

Once on most days, twice if there's been some kind of heavy exertion of energy and none at all if I'm feeling lazy.
Do you guys shampoo your armpits?

 

[Mofra]

Morning shower at work, after gym then ride into the office.

Occasional shower at home after ride if it's hot.

Music festivals/camping - swimming in dams/river/small blow up pool

Shower at night. I don't have a dirty job or anything but don't want to get into my nice clean bed and make it all grimy with body oil and the like.

Used to shower in the morning too but rarely have the chance these days with kids etc

 

[TassieEagle]

One in the morning, another after sport or physical exertion that may arise. Will take one before I leave to go out for a night out as well.

I don't know how it's possible not to shower in the morning unless you're bald or have your head shaved. Every day I wake up with hair everywhere and the only way to tame it is to have a shower.

In the morning, in the evening and after sex. I have three showers on my birthday.

So you get a hooker for your birthday do you ?

I wash my hair but stopped shampooing it a month ago after I read that natural hair oils helps in achieving aesthetics when using wax.

This. My hair is all over the place and to get it into a respectable fashion it must be washed.

I've become so accustomed to it that I simply cannot operate properly without one in the morning, especially before work.

 

[Stratton_Gun]

Have to have a shower in the morning or I am dead for the day

Like to have 2 or 3.

Strangely enough I like to shower before I exercise as well as after

I find it odd, but I have a team mate who does that before basketball.

Wow, I feel unclean compared to some of you, I only have one a day either at nighttime shortly before I go to bed or before I go out at night.
