I do but I'm rather conscious over water and power (electric shower) consumption, so my showers are more like shortwers.

Naah. Turning it off and on again would mess up the temperature.

Uhhhhh, yes?

We've got a shower massage type thing with multiple settings that include a cutoff, but I never use it because we also have this water conditioner can before the shower massage that I'm pretty sure would just explode if it had to hold back our water pressure. Wife likes the conditioner bc she claims it helps with the itchy. I'm sure we could save some water if we used the cutoff, but it's not like we spend hours in there anyway.

no. soaping is also scrubbing and having the water run dilutes it to fast. It should sit for a bit until the rinse. and it saves water

I've started to just because it's easy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Never! Because I also soap up my hair, and I really don't like to have the water running at that time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I do mostly, I turn it almost all the way off with a valve on the shower head.

The running stream is thinner than a pencil.

If I turn it off all the way, it is cold when I turn it back on.
