thats bad hygiene you should shower every day, this isnt england in the 1800s where they showed a few times a year

hi there , yes 'flikr' [above]is absolutely correct..
If all the people you associate with ,were brutally honest with you ,they would tell you that you have an odour.Unwashed hair is a big issue too ,and it is visible to the rest of the world who will unfortunately 'judge' you.
Get yourself a really good hygiene program going ,and reap the benefits..good luck!

you should try shower all the time, but then again not that long ago (hundred years perhaps) people didn't shower every day either...

Shower when u feel the need to but dont walk around stankey.

i do the same thing
its not that i dont like showering its that i am busy and forget until its too late because i hate sleeping with wet hair(horrible bedhead in the morning) but ya i only shower once or twice a week just make sure your hair doesnt look ratty, wear deoderant, brush your teeth, wash your hands, and wear clean clothes. people wont even notice then. actualy people tell me i smell good on a regular occasion(which i find weird). it doesnt matter all that much people are jsut too picky about how you ought to live your life. it saves water too =D. and thanks for not being such a clean freak

If your over 14, then you should shower more.
Once you go through adolescents it's pretty important.

Although if you at least wash your hands and your face once or twice a day then I guess it isn't that bad.
Does anyone ever think you smell bad or anything?
If anyone notices your hygiene then you probably should start washing more.

I shower 3 times a week. People don't notice a thing. I don't sweat, and it's good for the environment

it isnt that bad....long as you wash up everyday and dont go telling everyone...

im the same way.. i dont do much so i dont feel the need to get ready for sitting at home.. not to mention wasting water.. when i do go out i shower of coarse but i dont see it as a big deal to be stinky alone haha and ppl say i smell good anyway

i shower every single day

Shower at least every other day, dude. B.O. is unattractive and should be embarrassing.
Or shower every day of the week and skip weekends.

lol skip weekends you know!! you want the boy going on a date smelling of sweaty balls and big macs i dnt think soo XD im a very busy university student in the morning and a party sex god at night so most days i shower twice even three times after i come bk from nyt of clubbing i hate sleeping all sweaty nd what not!! twice a weekk!! its just not right mate

i had a friend that barely showered. we never wanted to hang out with him cuz he just stank so bad. dont do that to urself... showers and soap are there for a reason.

I usually wash myself over 1 day :P I spend lot of time in home so I don't get dirty or sweaty or whatever and next day after shower I still smell yummy and my hairs are good - I am clean.

But you should really wash urself more than 1-2 times LOL :P Morning Shower: good for waking up that is my uberproffesional advice to you!

Reading all this already makes me wanna go to shower :X I am going to shower now

Many people will judge you if you admit to not showering every day, but honestly, it's not necessary, natural, or even healthy (skin gets dried out).

However, once a week is probably pushing it a bit. As long as you haven't sweated and you don't smell, once every few days is fine. Just make sure to clean yourself well after using the bathroom. If your hair gets greasy, you should wash it once a day (just bend over the tub and put your head in). Same with your face, if it gets greasy, wash with a mild soap or cleanser. In winter, you can get away with showering less, and in summer, you have to shower more.

But bottom line, the only time a shower is necessary is when you're dirty. For most of us, that's at least every few days.

well if u dont do enough to sweat or anything then u dont need to take a swower everyday

I used to work 6 days a week and be gone from home for most of the day and was so busy that sometimes would be too tired to shower so the longest Ive gone without showering was like 2 weeks and no one ever told me I stink. Probably cuz I tried to at least be hygenic in other ways like washing face n hands and brushing hair n teeth and wearing perfume n deoderant.

I dunno, I shower every day, but that's because I get really oily hair if I don't. It may depend on your hair type (I know someone with very curly hair who doesn't shower as often--like once every three or four days) and the oiliness of your scalp/skin. Wash your face with some sort of cleanser if you're worried about breaking out, and use deodorant if you're worried about how you smell.

Actually... Showering everyday, and washing your hair everyday can sometimes be more harmful than beneficial. Unless you have some sort of medical condition that dictates you have to shower every single day, I'd try for every other day instead.

Hard water, chlorine, harsh chemicals in shampoo-bodywash-ect, can actually dry out skin and cause more harm than good. You have to let your body's natural oils replenish themselves.

I shower every other day. Apparently washing your hair every day deprives it of natural oils... or something.

Take a shower you STINK if your a girl I bet you really stink of rotten fish.

I didn't shower for 2 weeks once and I had about 4 or 5 girls say I smelled nice. Maybe they were making fun of me but it didn't look like it.

I should bottle my B.O. and sell it as cologne.

i also don't do much, don't go out, and don't really sweat. i too would showr like twice a week, but i always, every day, washed my armpits and also my privates at least in the sink. cause those are the places u sweat the most, odor- wise.
anyways, i thought my hygene was ok, but i kept getting comments from my family that i had bad odor, and so now i try maing an effort to wash and change my clothes more often.
thats another thing, i would wear the same shirt for days, and smell it, if it seemed all right i would go on wearing it, but the people living with me made comments so am trying to be more aware of this.

I used to do the same thing. Now it's probably three times a week. Warm water feels good, but it just gets so boring. That's why I don't take a crap that often or brush my teeth (which I've begun doing again). If I want anal stimulation, I'll just get a dildo.

instead of ur spending time posting on forums wondering if its normal or not why dont u just go have a shower!

I do the same thing but I wash my face and torso in a sink shower almost 4 times a week. As long as you're cleaning yourself.
