    I can't afford the electric shower anymore so I harvest rain water, part boil it to tepid and stand naked on a towel in my bathroom with a yellow sponge getting into every sweaty crevice.

    Job done in three minutes.

    I allow myself the luxury of washing my hair every second week using the emersion.

    If it's very cold to stand in the draughty bathroom, the baby wipes are a last resort.

    To thine own self be true

    Every morning without fail.

    When I was working I used to shower 2 or 3 times per week. Now that I'm stuck at home due to family circumstance it's barely once a week.

    I'm not a smelly fcuker though as I wash the strategic areas at the sink with a sponge everyday.

    A lot of people waste a lot of water and energy heating water and showering more often than necessary. An example of sheeple behaviour "OMG, you, loike, HAVE to shower, twice a day OMG" plus buying various products (glorified soaps)and lotions and constantly washing and drying towels too.

    Every morning +1 when I've engaged in a physical activity that produces bodily fluids. Max 1 minute showers with a bar of good quality soap that lasts weeks, no plastics for the last five years. Exceptions made for seaweed baths in seawater when surfing West.

    I dont always shower every day. I just make sure to wash the 4 key areas. Armpits, arse, crotch and teeth. I find I save a lot of time by using the same brush on all 4 areas.

    With the current hit spells twice a day



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭Jinglejangle69

    Lack of showering makes Mickey time flaccid

    Every morning, without fail, and occasionally a quick cool shower on a summer's evening too. I like to feel and smell clean. If some people feel sufficiently clean without a daily shower, that's entirely a matter for themselves (and also a matter for those who have to be around them), and none of my business.

    once a week, whether I need to or not

    Daily. For hygiene purposes but it wakes me up a bit too.



  • Registered Users Posts: 24,470 ✭✭✭✭Cookie_Monster


    After exercise, so sometimes 3x a day, usually twice, sometimes once.



  • Registered Users Posts: 22 ratatouille99


    Every evening, and maybe once in the day if I've been working out

    I shower a lot more than you do, but I agree with your last paragraph. There is some brainwashing going on imo. At the moment with going out for walks a lot and the weather being fairly warm still, I have to shower daily, but when it's cold in a few weeks and I won't be going out for walks as much, AND I'm working from home, I won't need a shower every day. And my skin, which gets very dry, will benefit - although two days of a gap is my absolute max. Two or three showers a day seems OCD though. Maybe some people get smelly really easily?



  • Registered Users Posts: 23,814 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    2 or 3 showers a day over a prolonged period is a bad idea. It disrupts your skins natural oils and ability to regulate its own suppleness and moisture.

    It may sound counter intuitive, but water is very drying and no artificial cleanser yet invented is superior to your own body's ability to expel dirt and toxins.

    Ask any competition swimmer what they have to go through to keep their skin in good condition. Its not just the chlorine that takes a toll, but the constant rinsing off too.

    My yearly wash is coming up this month. I wash once a year the night before my Birthday.

    Ah no at the minute I wash once a week. Trim the beard every week before the shower and trim my hair every second week.

    When I used to go jogging I'd wash after the jog so maybe three times a week back then.

    Mind you I did come home from a drive one hot day this summer and stripped off when I got home and went in for a shower. I was soaked in sweat and it was a relief in that cold shower.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,437 ✭✭✭Sgt Hartman


    I shower every evening. I like going to bed feeling spotlessly clean.
