    I'm amazed that so many people shower 2-3 times a day. That seems so wasteful of time and resources. And the people who shower BEFORE their workouts? WTH? :huh: I shower after workouts, so 5-6 times a week.

    Ditto. Ain't nobody got time fo dat.

    I didn't shower today, but I probably will after my work out tonight. If I washed my hair everyday or multiple times a day it would be like straw.

    I am suprised to see some people not take a shower daily. Showering is just good personal hygiene. But I guess to each their own.

    To answer the OP: I shower every morning after my workout or if I am going to workout later in the day or evening, then I shower when I get out of bed. I think the only time I would have skipped a day is when I was in the hospital after giving birth to my babies or maybe when I was on my death bed with the flu or something. If I workout later in the day or night, I usually will shower after that as well. I typically wash my hair daily as well (it in long, thick, and curly) so sometimes I am in a hurry and don't have time to spend 20 minutes under the blow dryer and then the additional time styling it, so it is easier to just throw it up in a bun (I call this my "dirty butt hair").

    Once a day. I work out first thing in the am, then I shower. Sometimes at bedtime on a really hot, sticky day.

    After every workout, and usually once a day...sometimes I skip a day if I haven't been active. I don't wash my hair everyday even if I shower as long as I didn't get it sweaty.

    I shower daily to get the grime off...BUT I only wash my hair every other day otherwise its a frizzy mess...especially during the long, dry winters. And even MORE especially if I want to straighten it. I dont know why but I cant get it STRAIGHT (no matter how hot my iron is) on the DAY i wash it. :frown: Its frustrating.

    How in the hell do you have time to shower 3 times in a day?

    Not to mention that to shower that frequently is probably not good for your skin.

    I shower once a day whether I need to or not. :wink:

    3 times a day?! That is insane!
    I hate showers and hate having wet hair :sick:
    So I wash my hair once a week (these funky colors wash out too fast otherwise :tongue: ), plus my hair never gets greasy.
    I shower when I feel like it, but wash myself down with a washcloth and soap every morning so I'm not dirty.:smile:

    At least once a day, more if I've gotten sweat or otherwise feel gross.

    It depends when my workout is. If it's early enough (like, before 8) I shower once. If it's in the afternoon I shower in the morning and then have a quick shower to rinse off the sweat when I get back from the gym

    As an Australian who has been living with water restrictions for a good part of 25 years, some of these answers really annoy me. The recommended shower time is no longer than a few minutes.. and some of you are standing under a shower for up to SIXTY minutes a day?
    Do you realize how wasteful this is?

    I agree with you. I grew up in a 13-year drought. Wash up and get out.

    Everyday, and it's after my workouts either morning or nights. Sundays are usually big tub/jacuzzi nights... so I hold off all day for a long relaxing soak with my hubby.... :)

    Twice a day on workout days, once a day on no workout days. Judging from the smell of the ladies lockerroom I'm guessing no one else shares my "fresh" need. Eww.eeewww
