How do yall get the motivation to shower everyday? I can do every other day at best but there’s just so much work and effort that goes into showering. It feels like I spend so much time just on personal hygiene that I don’t have enough time for anything

You don’t need an EVERYTHING shower everyday. I shower everyday but 5 of those throughout the week are just body wash & face wash, max 10 minutes necessary

I mean I only shower everyday if it’s hot outside or I’ve been working out, but I also don’t sweat a lot and my hair doesn’t get super greasy until day 4 or 5. Every other day isn’t gross imo

I’m working on compiling a list of things but some things that help me are - squishy, comfy shower shoes - shower chair/stool - shower gloves so you don’t have to fuck w a loofa - remember that ‘something’ is better than ‘nothing’

Don’t wash your hair every day and get good smelling products so you have incentive and not as much of a time sink

I usually sweat at least a little bit while I’m at work and on the off days I’ll take a wet wash cloth and wipe myself down good but I feel like it’s better to just shower. Like I’ve canceled seeing friends before just because I couldn’t get myself to shower and I didn’t want to show up gross

If you know how your hair maintains freshness throughout the week that can help minimize shower times if that’s what you’re worrying about. I only have to wash my hair 2ish times a week, which immediately makes my other shower days super quick as I’m only going over my body with a body wash. After shower care can also help you feel cleaner or more rejuvenated without having to shower everyday. I apply body oils and lotions after every shower:)

Also!! Don’t discount baths!! Much more calm and relaxing in my opinion and I don’t feel rushed in getting everything done. I usually still shower for a couple of minutes at the end to rinse

Honestly thank you for this, I think I’ve been getting so obsessed with how clean I am cause I always see people talking about how if people don’t do their personal hygiene a certain way then they’re so gross and disgusting. It’s almost starting to feel like a hygiene competition or something
