Morning, before breakfast? Evening, right before bedtime? Both?

Agota · 11-18-2011, 06:26 PM

Both

scorpio1980 · 11-18-2011, 06:42 PM

I love a hot nighttime shower.

firenexx · 11-18-2011, 09:05 PM

I like to take luke-warm or cold showers in the morning.

I used to take a shower every morning, but my skin and hair got too dry. I was having to apply lotion almost daily in the winter.
So I take one every 2-3 days, and on in-between days I wash with a soapy washcloth. Turns out this is the SOP in most countries except the one I live in (USA).

Right after getting up, just before breakfast. I like to get it outta the way.

For a time, I used to shower after breakfast. Then I felt I was wasting time because of it. Not so much from the shower duration but from the ritual, I took longer to get in the shower.

lifetimelearner · 11-19-2011, 01:38 AM

I always shower before work but sometimes at night too -depending on how much I roll in the mud

Moriarty · 11-19-2011, 01:48 AM

I'm so tuff i eat shower roses for breakfast and 'dirt' is my middle name.

asanteg · 11-19-2011, 02:00 AM

I love showers! They are so therapeutic for me. I love to take a long shower in the morning and one at night. However, I've been known to sneak a shower or two in the middle.

OptimistPrime · 11-19-2011, 02:12 AM

First thing right after I wake up, whenever that happens to be.

Also, very rarely late in the afternoon, and even more rarely in the evening.

rlatts · 11-19-2011, 03:14 AM

Night time...before bed.

True Believer · 11-19-2011, 08:04 AM

During my working week I have a shower as soon as I jump out of bed to wake me up. At the weekend I have breakfast before I have a shower. I tend to get 2 showers a day if I've been to the gym or am going out in the evening!

Aaaah showers, love them!! and Baths!!!!!

aelle · 11-19-2011, 08:05 AM

In the morning, after breakfast. I also shower at night if I went out in a smoky place.

Sheogorath · 11-21-2011, 04:38 AM

Within 30 minutes of when I get home from school/outside my house. Alternatively, anywhere between 5:00 and 10:00 pm.

Razia · 11-23-2011, 07:39 AM

Both,its much refreshing in morning and relaxing in night..

Horizons · 11-23-2011, 08:02 AM

On birthdays.

madeleined · 11-29-2011, 01:06 AM

Usually at night, unless I wake up after a night of drinking . . . ehhh :B

I can't imagine taking 4 showers a day. I've always hated showers. I mean, it's great once you're in, but the steps before and after, are a big pain in the ass lol.

I'm the same. If I've been working out, it can be 3-4 times a day. If I have a migraine or feeling ill, it can be 5+ times a day. A short one in the morning, a long night one to make me unwind.
I want a water recycler because of my long showers at night. I often just want the feel of warm water flowing over my body. If it was counter-current pool with a small waterfall, I'd be totally happy with that also.

tacotash · 11-29-2011, 09:55 AM

think about the environment and just take 1 a week thats plenty have it on a sunday be fresh for the rest off the week use plenty of deodarant during the week to mask the smell of bo happy showering

Rickison · 11-29-2011, 10:17 AM

Usually early morning and every time after the exercise, i go for shower. Yes, I am doing exercise and following a diet plan to reduce my weight.

Bgare · 11-29-2011, 10:47 AM

Usually after work, or if I go to the gym I'll postpone it until after that.

Morning showers seem somewhat arbitrary for me as I'm only going to get dirtier throughout the day. When I'm at home I stay clean and that way I keep a cleaner bed for longer.

I find it's a very nice way to wind down as well.

Tasek · 11-29-2011, 01:19 PM

MrProductive · 11-30-2011, 12:12 AM

Normally once a day, I find it relaxing. I have my best ideas in the shower, Its benefical disconnecting myself from all the distractions in my house.
