Shower just ONCE a week say dermatologists

[sex]

Daily showers could become a thing of the past, if a new beauty trend called 'cleansing reduction' takes off.
Instead of bathing every day, proponents whittle their washing habits down to once or twice a week on the grounds that too much cleansing can strip the skin and hair of essential natural oils.
While it might sound disgusting, it would seem that cleansing reduction is catching on, after a poll for tissue manufacturer, SCA, found that 41 per cent of British men and 33 per cent of women no longer shower every day.

Many years ago people never used to wash often for sexual reasons also, I think I read an account of Napoleon writing to his wife/lover in wartime asking her not to bath for a few weeks so that when he returned he could smell her 'scent' - it's all to do with pheromones I guess.

But no, i'll stick to my one a day/one every two days thanks.

Dunno bought you lot but as a child I'd only bath once a week sometimes, nowadays I'll go 3 usually the max but 3 is pushing it, i'll only go 3 if im sitting around, 2 if im just doing small things like going for a walk or w/e but if I'm actually doing something like going college etc I'll have a wash daily (that's if I wake up on time ).


feel like a slob saying I only showered once a week as a child, someone defend me and say they did too!!

I don't get how you couldn't wash daily. I get too warm daily even with deodorant and have to shower daily.

Yeah, I definitely washed a lot less as a kid, or at least, that's how I remember things...

I have a shower every night =/ I like the feeling of being clean lol

An interesting idea. I think I remember in science or history (somewhere) that it can be good for the skin, as you're not washing away useful salts.
