    I put my hair in a shower cap when I shower and use dry shampoo later. My hair gets really nasty if I was it daily with like sores and crap. I just put it up when I work out too.

    If I don't want to wash my hair, I just rinse it. If I don't want to get it wet, it goes up in a bun and I use a shower cap. Then I might use a dry shampoo on it after if it seems "yucky" still.
    But a shower every day is a must :neutral: I have to shower after I work out, even if it's a rinse.

    I'm a head sweater. I suck it up and just wash my stuff everyday. Probably why I like to keep my hair so short. Although, I will admit that yesterday I took a "pool bath." lol

    Shower caps, Co-wash (conditioner) dry shampoo, quick water rinse... It depends how sweaty I am.

    If you MUST use shampoo, opt for sulfate free, soapnuts or dilute your regular shampoo with water.

    Watch that dry shampoo. I was using the Dove brand kind and noticed it was making my scalp burn. Then I noticed the first ingredient, no lie, is butane and the second is propane.

    Most people around you might have the need to be around clean people..... Shower and bathing do not kill people or make you sick - that was the believe in medieval times......

    Haha! As long as the unshowered aren't anywhere near me then I don't care what others do.

    I always go straight home after the gym to shower, but if I have to go to the grocery store I'll go on my way home all sweaty on purpose. That way people don't stand rightontopofmeandinmypersonalspace in the checkout line. HATE when people do that. Sometimes being smelly serves a purpose.

    Lots of judgy shower patrol people on here, lol. You really truly don't need to shower everyday for health/cleanliness reasons. Also, everyone is different, some people are profuse sweaters/stinkers and others are not. If you shower every day, good for you. If you don't shower every day, good for you. Lol

    She showers at least a couple times a week. People are acting like she showers once a month. Or in midieval times twice a year or something. Hard to take this seriously.

    Yeah, people. How could all you Shower McShowersons make people who shower less feel bad. Shower Shamers! :neutral:

    Shower cap or bun. And lots of moisturizer because there is no way in hell I'm skipping a shower if there is running water in the immediate vicinity.

    You could just do a sponge bath on your sweatiest bits or get a shower head that has a handheld shower so you can just wash off certain areas.
    Don't use shampoo or soap on your whole body every day. Just rinse with water.
    Use a moisturizing shampoo or cleanser if you have dry skin or hair. I use Noxema on my face.

    I shower or bathe every other day unless I have been doing something dirty like yard work or have been absolutely drenched in sweat. My workouts don't leave me drenched with sweat usually.

    I don't think they are being horribly mean or anything. I just thought maybe they weren't being serious and were just pretending to be more horrified than they are. I guess they aren't. I guess I just don't understand. First world problems and stuff. Lol
