Curiosity only.

Here in Brazil it's very common to have several showers a day. I, for example, take two. The first is when I wake up, before I go to work, and the second is when I get home from work. I wake up at 6.30am and get home at 8pm.

edit: I said bath, but I meant shower.

Depends on the season. I will shower in the mornings and after my swim and again maybe before bed on a hot 40C January day. I might shower one in three on cold June winter holidays when I am home 24/7.

2-4. One longer one in the morning for cleaning myself. A 2-3 minute one when I workout or get sweaty. And a final short one before climbing into bed.

Sometimes I just decide I need to destress and take another 10-15 minute long one. If I have an easily accessible sauna at a knobs turn then you bet I'll be using it.

Usually one in the morning. Once in a while another one if I get too sweaty or dirty.

1 before bed. If I’m trying to conserve water I might only do it on days I workout - so every other day before bed.

Every other day, but sometimes more often depending on what I've been up to

1 + 1 after heavy exercise

In winter I might skip a day here or there, as it can help dry skin.

I used to do it right before work so I was nice and fresh for work, no I'm wfh and I do it after I finish work as an end of day barrier.

At the moment, none, because I’m not able to - having to keep myself clean with basically just a basin and soap. Usually, somewhere between 0.25 and 0.5 a day. I don’t really get particularly dirty or sweaty. If I did get particularly dirty/sweaty then I’d just shower ASAP.

Twice a day normally. 1 morning, 1 after work if im dirty, sweaty or stinky.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Since starting fall quarter of college, every day I have to go. And on Fridays if I have something like a doctor's appointment that day.

[–] Anti_Weeb_Penguin 2 points 1 year ago

I take one shower per day.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Once a day, I feel like trash if I even skip one day.

Tho honestly I often wonder if twice a day is optimal. I always feel great the few times I take it twice, but when I only take it once, I always wake up wanting to shower immediately to get the oil off.

Shower once per day unless I get a haircut or am very sweaty.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I take 4 showers per day if i am going out for work and if i stay at home only 2, morning and in night and before going to bed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

One morning shower but we don't have hot climate here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

A shower every couple of days. I'm on well water in a pretty nasty drought so I try to save what water I can.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I take a shower in the morning if I work out, and I always take one at night. So like 1.5 times a day.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Depends on the time of the year,

During the summer I’d have one before and after work, during winter once a day or once every two days

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Twice a day in summer, every other day in winter, once a day in spring and fall
