How often do you shower/bathe a week?

How often do you shower/bathe? The reason I ask is because I am trying to save water but I need to find the most socially acceptable minimum amount of showers someone should have a week. At the moment, I have a shower everyday but I'm beginning to think this isn't very good for the environment or my body.

Please be honest. The poll is completely anonymous so don't worry about what other people may think.

So you shower twice a day sometimes? Doesn't that dry out your skin?

Everytime I use the toilet.

I only have a bath in my flat but I usually bathe once a day or once every two days at most.

Once every two days sounds fine :smile:
I used to shower twice a day because of the job I did. Now it's once a day when I get it up unless I workout at the gym or something.

If you're trying to save water money see how much a membership at the gym is (some at collage/uni are very cheap) and assuming it has locked showers... there you go.

It's very hard to find a "minimum" amount of showers because everyone sweats differently but in general anything less then once a day and you start to have people notice... at least in my case as I walk in.

Does anybody notice that you haven't washed if you miss a day?

People that notice don't tend to openly tell you. They'll just move away.

Oh yeah good point!
It's starting to look like having a shower every other day is the absolute minimum.
i naturally dont smell unless i miss like 5 days. (however i do wash in some form every day)
I do shower nearly every day due to my hair becoming filfthy in less than half a day :/

Wow that's really lucky!
Yeah my hair gets greasy really quickly too so I'm going to have my hair cut short.
Like 3 times a week normally. Typically Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday because that's when I play football.
I shower every single day...
Definitely twice a day (once in the morning the again after college). Sometimes, 3 times.
