How often do you shower / bath your body?

@Pyr0 Baths are now a luxury or something my son has. I still have a chrimbo bath bomb to enjoy at some point!

Man I must have got old and boring, if instead of going raving, I now look forward to using a bath bomb and enjoying a night in with a bottle of wine!

Everyday, 45minutes in the shower zoning out about life. (Stoned or sober). It sucks, sometimes I turn off the water and realize I haven't even washed haha. Either that or I wash twice.
Man, I hope u r reusing all that water for a garden or something cause otherwise you are spending too much precious water and if I could I would ban you from showers everywhere! :uhh::lol:

I love baths ,but after getting an $800 water bill for six months I'm back to taking showers.
My wife swears that I smell like an old man , and she wants me to take a vinegar bath, but I shower and bathe every night, so WTF!
I also use deodorant on my feet and under my pits. It works really good on my feet as I do the majority of sweating through them.

In my experience diet plays a major role in body odour. Cut on meat, dairy products and heavy spices and ask your wife again after a month...

Frequent hot showers and soap also strip most of the healthy bacterial life off the skin, weakening the immune system and making us get sick easier.

THIS. For sure. Companies like Proctor & Gamble have convinced us all that our natural oils are filthy and disgusting and that slathering ourselves in a compound of 60 different chemicals intended to mimic the odor of a pine forest or rose bush is much healthier.

We are sterilizing ourselves to death. We kill off the healthy bacteria as well as the bad. We, as the proverb says, throw out the baby with the bath water. At the very least, we dry out our skin and hair.

All in moderation and depending upon activity for me.

I prefer the every other day quick shower (only use soap on stinky zones that can tolerate soap) unless I am in a rare period of daily exercise, and I only wash my hair once or twice a week. In my present living situation, I only shower weekly and do the spit bath with a washcloth the other days. Even when I exercise daily, I might not use soap daily.

Were my beloved here, I would be sprucing up down under on a daily basis. :brow::lol:

It was strangely refreshing and satisfying standing out there buck naked in the forest with the sun shining down on me.

Not strange at all. Sounds blissful!

Yes, it's your diet unless you have an underlying medical condition causing you to excrete this odor. Patricia Cornwell wrote a thriller where the criminal had a unique maple syrup smell because he had some condition. Most likely your diet, though.

I have not used shampoo for a year and a half. I occasionally use an organic Dead Sea mud soap for my head and body, but usually clean myself with water. Most people find it strange who are used to the chemical onslaught lifestyle. I enjoy not feeling a slave to consumer beauty products. Most body odor is from meat, alliums (garlic/onion) dairy etc. You can usually smell the garlic coming from most people's armpits. Americans are obsessed with garlic.

I do wear the same clothes for a couple days, it's not one in the same. Underwear and socks need to be changed more frequently than sweat pants or t shirts. I don't see it as a big deal, if I was incredibly active or put myself in dirty scenarios like working on cars or tending a garden I'd probably feel differently. I know people that take 2-3 showers and wear 4 outfits a day though. No thanks, I prefer my dirty hippie lifestyle, which in my opinion, is cleaner than most. I don't consider massaging hundreds of chemicals on my body disguised by a pleasant scent as being clean, I consider that very dirty. I guess it's all perspective.
