how often u shower?

[Erikmen]

Difficult to shower while detoxing..

 

[njirem]

twice a day, in the morning to wake up and like an hour before bedtime to relax.

When I was locked up in a police station for a couple of days last month, they didn't let me take a shower.

When I used soap, I stunk. Now it takes me three days to stink half as bad.

I wash with baking soda. I find soap disgusting for the most part. Slimy filmy smelly cloggy.

how do you do this? like just put it on a sponge or something?

I use it (baking soda) as deoderant now, like i'll just dab a few fingers in powder after showering, rub it in my armpits, and it works incredibly well (was blown away at how well it works when i first started this maybe 6mo ago!)

I usually shower once a day, I workout every morning then take a shower before going to work.

Sponge bath daily (water issue, on well, precious thing)
4-5 times a week, take a shower but only when/if the water level's high enough, otherwise, 3-4...
(sponge baths work fine enough)
Must save water for the plants so we be old school pioneering it out here.

I Shower Once A Morning or Evening If I could But Living in A Shared Bathroom And Kitchen Rooming Apartment Complex Of A Renovated Old Hotel and Brothel back in the Day Day.

 

[Ubi]

I should shower now.

Hahaaha what a topic...
I shower once or twice a day when I have work, and because I am a CNA I have by default become a germaphobe, so I have to lotion everything and use alcohol based wipes every 5 seconds. :')
Weekends, Idk, depends on if it's hot out or if I'm getting banged... I'll at least wash my hair every day because it gets greasy, but sometimes a whole shower and shave just seems silly when I live in the cold cold mountains of PA and I'm stranded all day in my house due to snow/rain/coooooooooold.

Once a day - but twice if I exercise....For some reason I have always preferred morning showers.....

 

[skitsofrantik75]

I generally shower of the morning and am good for the rest of the day. I have to shower at least once a day or I feel funky and nasty. But some nights I like to relax with a hot shower (even though I showered that morning) and kick back with a glass of sweet tea and a playstation controller. And I also wash my sack and crack each time I go to the bathroom as long as it is accessible like at home. Even though Ive lost most of my hair what I do have left still gets oily by the end of the day so that Is why I shower again at night sometimes

Depends.

When I worked landscaping I'd shower twice a day, the morning shower was just to help me wake up and the one after work was to wash off all the funk.

Now I only need to shower once a day and if I'm not stinky I might skip it.

I only run soap through my hair every other shower though. If I use shampoo every time my hair turns into a dried out poof, if I wait too long to shampoo it my hair gets too oily. A couple of years after I started letting it grow out long I discovered it was a bad idea to use shampoo every time. I also avoid using conditioner on it but I keep a bottle in the shower to run through my beard every so often.

 

[Ubi]

depends on the water supply or where I am on the Planet

 

[Zeeman]

Every day before sleep, or earlier if I know I won't go out again. Going to bed clean feels so good. I don't like morning showers.

I might have a 30 second rinse at the gym after a work out too, but often not. Fuck it. I usually work out at lunch hour at work; don't care about being a little sweaty there.

 

[PetalToTheMetal]

I try to at least once a day, if not twice. Sometimes I'll take an extra shower just out of boredom, and sit down in the tub and zen out. If I'm traveling or squatting sometimes I'll go without

 

[Smoky]

Depends on soft hard water , where I am … and what I'm doing. Working with pets usually daily, otherwise not

 

[wezface]

Like, once or twice a week. And I've been doing that for so long that my body doesn't really produce much oil, and I don't get greasy (hair or body) for about a week. Of course, if I've been sweating a lot or I'm dirty or grimy I will shower, but as a general rule I'm pretty sedentary and this works for me. I think this culture has an unhealthy obsession with cleanliness.

 

[amethystlight]

i want the shower in a lagoon and i love the rain on me thats my shower

 

[L2R]

lol fucked up the vote, clicked once or twice a day..... didn't realise it said per week. doh.

 

[Acanthus]

Just once a day but I was brought up to take two. I'm actually surprised at the results, I expected people to be showering more often. Ie: once a week is pretty gross.
What forces me to do it is the feelings of greasy hair, and (if hot) a sweaty face. I can't stand that so triggers shower time.
Being on buprenorphine I really don't enjoy taking showers though, like Burroughs said, 'junkies are like cats, they can't stand water.' It's true.
