Curiosity only.

Here in Brazil it’s very common to have several showers a day. I, for example, take two. The first is when I wake up, before I go to work, and the second is when I get home from work. I wake up at 6.30am and get home at 8pm.

edit: I said bath, but I meant shower.

    I’m from EU. Many years I took a shower every day, but that was bad for my skin. So I try to shower every two days now (=0.5). It’s not easy, because showers feel refreshing 😅

      Are you sure it’s the shower that is bad for your skin? People use so much soaps and shampoos and they never think that those could be the problem.

      I would reduce the use of those products if you are a heavy user. The ads have made people think they need chemicals to become clean when hot water is enough.

        Yes, I am sure. If I don’t use at least mild shampoo and shower gel, my hair gets greasy and my skin oily, minutes after the shower. That causes even more problems.
