    I shower most every day...although I have not yet showered today. Yesterday I did not get around to showering until the evening...didn't do anything particularly strenuous last night. This morning I wanted to get the boys out of the house early, since they were off from school and my husband was working from home. So there was no time (or need) to shower this morning. Had the kids out through mid afternoon. Came home to do some cookin' and cleanin'. I may try to get on the elliptical later, since I didn't go to the gym today. I will shower after since my bed has fresh sheets on it.

    Most days, I shower once. However, any time I come home from a shift, or call at the station, I shower again.

    That being said, it's time to go hit the shower and throw my duty clothes in the wash at the same time.

    No. I rarely use the shower. I do take baths every other day.

    Zero judgment here but I'm curious....

    If I go to the gym, I pretty much have to, and I go about 5 to 6 days a week. I sweat too much not to.

    Before making any conclusions about the replies you got, consider the fact that people who do shower daily are much more likely to reply.

    Twice. More often if I see fit. Long shower at night, shorter shower in the morning on work days, longer on days off. Wash hair every day at night and use conditioner only in the morning. If I've paid to have my hair styled I'll not wash it for up to two days, but it is hard for me.

    Nope. I'm not smelly or anything like that, but if I'm spending the day sitting around then I'll use that time for other things. I'll make sure to shower if I do get sweaty, otherwise its usually every 2-3 days.

    No, sometimes I will skip a day here and there. Exercise days I absolutely have to though.

    Every couple days for me, unless I did something stinky or my legs are too jumpy before bed. I only wash my hair every 3 or 4 days as well. I tend to get really irritated skin if I over wash, and I've been blessed with low sweating and not overactive oil glands. My daughter on the other hand.... needs a shower at least once, sometimes more every day.

    Usually Sunday through Friday once per day, and usually not on Saturday. I figured that since I didn't answer in my earlier post I should demonstrate the effectiveness of a 180 years ago zealot.

    Yes...& my hair is super long so I have to wash it every day. I also just love having a relaxing shower before the day begins :)

    I shower nearly every day - occasionally have a pyjama day at home where i dont bother and occasionally shower again in evening if going out to dinner or something after hectic or sporty day.
    I wash my hair alternate days and wear shower cap on the other days.

    If power outage, (relatively common occurence here) I get by with a sponge wash

    I am one of those grimy people mentioned upthread who shower in the morning and not before bed. :)

    Yes always. I always shower in the morning and always shower at night after I work out. I don’t workout every day but on the days I do, i shower. I’m also a big bathtub soaker and do that a few nights a week too.
    I only wash my hair twice a week though.

    I shower every day but try to go at least two if not three days between washing my hair. The more you wash it the more oil your scalp will produce.

    For me it's baths, not showers. Roughly 45 minutes every single day of life. It's how I relax, wake up, etc. Hugely important to me!

    Maybe 2X per year I shower - only when I stay in a hotel with no tub.

    Since a lot of people addressed hair washing frequency...I wash my hair about 5X per week. I washed it every single day for decades but all the negative press on that has me working on NOT washing daily. Honestly I don't see that it makes that much of a difference. I skip about 2 days per week and then use cleansing conditioner instead of shampoo/conditioner on 2 days. In the summer though when it's very hot & humid, I just wash it daily.

    Every other day when I don't exercise. I work at a desk job, I don't break a sweat.

    Now that I am running though, I tend to take one after my run because I feel all gross.

    Yes. Sometimes twice a day if I get really sweaty

    Yes and during the summer I shower sometimes 2x-3x/day because the gym I train in has NO A/C :neutral: and our house only has 1 window A/C. I wash my hair 2-3x/week

    Every day unless I know I’ll be doing something physical early the next morning.
    If that’s the case than I’ll wait till I’ve done it (yard work, working out, working on the car) and then shower

    Daily showers are an absolute necessity! Minimum once daily, more if I work out, or change clothes from work to going out. I do not shampoo my hair daily though-it would get too dry. I co-wash twice per week and shampoo once per week, more for very sweaty workouts or hot summer weeks.

    Yep, daily, in the evening. I'm lazy in the morning and I also feel disgusting when I don't sleep clean. When it tends to get hot or super-extra (we have 40c periods in summer), it's another 1-2 5-minute showers.
    Hair washing is another story, mine's pretty dry so I just wash it 2 times per week and pin it up the rest of time time.
