I shower every other day. On the days i dont shower, i wash in strategic places with baby wipes. I wash my hair once or twice a week. Ive found my skin and hair seem healthier. My dry scalp is gone and i no longer have little flakes on my clothes. My skin is in better condition too.
@@MaliUrumI haven't really heard anyone outside this comment section talking about the effects on skin, but I've heard that with hair if you wash it less frequently it stops getting as oily so if you get through the "awkward" phase of it being super greasy when you first start spacing out hair washings it gets progressively better and it's popular now to not wash hair every day. So if your feeling weird stems from a social stigma, don't. The hair is a fairly popular thing and I'm sure you'll be able to find info about it being better for skin too.
Random fact: when you shower and sing in the shower you might think your noise is covered by the sound the shower is making because your ears are closer to the shower head but in reality people can hear you sing much more clearly than they wanted to :)
Barber here, TO NOT HAVE TO WASH YOUR HAIR EVERY DAY: stop washing your hair every day. When your hair is used to being washed every day, your hair/scalp can overcompensate and produce oils faster. For a month, wash your hair every 3-5 days, or go as long as you can. Don't wet your hair either- wetting without washing makes your hair look greasy because it surfaces the oils. Use dry shampoo if you must. Sweat coming from your head will most likely not smell- just be sure to wash your face and the rest of your body. (Ask a friend if you smell from not washing your hair.) I'm very confident that after this month you'll be able to go 2-3 days without washing it. Go 4-5 days here and there.
Dry shampoo can be dagerous if not washed right next day. I would say wash your scalp whenever it's oily. We have hormones and sometimes it can couse sebum overproduction. I would not advice anybody to just hold off from washing hair when it's visable that they need to be cleaned. And if the sebum production is sevire I would advice to go see your doctor. I wash my hair every single day, and they are fine with it ;)
"Your skin doesn't like hot water and soap all over it and a shower should be 3-4 minutes" Me taking a shower in the hottest water I can tolerate, soaping my entire body about 4-5 times and spending 30 minutes in there 😮
That's not true. I've found that the further a water fixture is away from the water heater/ boiler, the longer it takes for the water to heat up. If you didn't pay the water bill, you wouldn't get any water. OP was talking about getting the water temperature just right. It also takes longer when it's cold outside.
I actually have lost quite a bit of weight lately by just changing my posture. I didn’t realize how garbage my posture was. It hadn’t changed since my pregnancy five years ago. I was so stressed out, no idea how to lose the weight, and I just need to properly support myself to tone down

I choke when I brush my teeth too and my dentist recently recommended a sore throat numbing spray that they use during my appointments. I think salt can help as well. I try to use a small-headed toothbrush and brush in shorter durations throughout the day when I can. And always do the inside top last because nothing is happening after that 😂 I also like the Lumo lift for posture assistance. Instead of doing it for you, it just yells at you when your posture degrades and makes you do it yourself 😊
Don’t have time to get my hair wet, get soap out of my very thick hair, condition, shave my legs and armpits and get all the conditioner out of my hair in 4 minutes!

We learned in cosmetology school that as long as the water isn’t hellfire hot, you can take a longer shower. Think more lukewarm or even cool. But yes, for the most part unless you’re in a work environment where you’re constantly sweating you don’t need to shower every day. Definitely not wash your hair every day.
Point to be made about gaging while brushing teeth. I used to when I brushed my teeth leaning down at a sink or seeing the reflection while trying to brush my tongue. I started brushing my teeth at the kitchen sink where there isn’t a mirror and walk around while brushing and I don’t gag anymore.
I've heard people say you should only wash your hair once a week. Frankly, I don't care if that's the healthiest thing to do. I refuse to walk around with greasy hair the majority of the week. I'll choose the non-greasy option personally 😂 So I really appreciate that Dr Mike says it's individual. We're all different so our hair and skin have different needs ♥
If you wash your hair less, it will start taking longer to get greasy. I have straight hair, which usually gets greasy earlier than other types of hair, and I wash it once a week. And it only starts getting greasy by saturday.
same i hate greasy hair but it's actually a good thing to let your hair get a little greasy for a day instead of immediately washing it because you're stripping your scalp of necessary oils
It times time for your hair to get used to it ( I only wash mine 2 times a week) it's never greasy but for the Majority of those that are daily washers their hair gets overly greasy quickly because your hair/ Scalp is trying to over Compensate for the oils the shampoo Strips out of your hair

There's three types of showers. Short showers after a workout for the body and skip the hair, and long showers that include washing the hair, then really long showers that include shaving the things that need to be shaved.
Ever since my hair stylist told me to stop washing my hair everyday with shampoo… my hair went from being oily everyday, to being normal! Yay for not stripping all the natural hair oils daily with shampoo and having your body producing extra oils and making your hair extra oily 🥳
@@ffadicto it depends on the hair type thin/thick/curly etc… but just so you know it will take several weeks for your hair to adjust. So if you used to wash it everyday, it will be oily for a little while until it gets used to the new routine. I usually try to shampoo it about twice per week.
My aunt dated someone from Panama and everyone was so confused because he would shower multiple times a day for at least an hour each I only found out through research for a school project that this was completely normal in Panama since it's so hot and it's kind of just a cultural thing
I think its pretty normal for people who lives in a more humid and hotter place, to shower 2 or 3 times a day. Like nobody wants to be icky from all the sweats.
Dr. Mike: "You don't have to shower every single day." Me living in the Philippines where there's only 2 kinds of season. Either Summer or Goddamn Fire Prevention Month: "Okay maybe I'll just shower twice a day now instead of 3x." Note: He said that it depends on one's lifestyle.
You can go on a cold(er) shower tho, and try to not soap yourself as much, basically just refreshing your body if i could say. Not an actual full on shower but more like an in and out thing
Based on my own experience, I would say that an itch is when a micro-tear in one’s flesh gets filled with fluid, causing a mixed reaction aimed towards both the pain and contact sensors firing simultaneously. That or it’s something that I have no idea what it is.
@@rkah6187 yeah I know, I was joking. My hair is knee length so it takes about 3 hours to fully wash and brush my hair, so that’s why I dont do it so often
The movements in sleep especially while dreaming are so real. I'm glad at the moment I sleep alone because I often end up punching or kicking in my sleep and dreams and at this point someone would get hurt because it's full force. Hmmm? I wonder if THAT is normal?
I have really long hair, there's literally no way I could possibly wash just my hair in 3-4 minutes, let alone wash my hair and properly shower. That's insane.
I'm 5ft7, and my hair is thicccccc and all the way to my butt. It takes longer than that to wash just my hair, especially because I shampoo my scalp twice 🤣
@@erihppaseiram9795 omg me too! My hair is thick and reaches below my waist. I also shampoo my scalp twice and condition it once. By the time i’m done it’s been like 30-45 mins (including washing my body). Don’t even get me started on how long it takes to shave on top of that 40 mins 💀
I think he meant that some people need to wash their bodies more often than they need to wash their hair so on days like that, focusing on the groin and pits only as opposed to soaping up everything is a good option for your skin.
I swear I’m constantly telling my husband all these things that I’m learning from Dr. Mike’s channel and he’s like what is it now what am I not allowed to do what am I not allowed to eat what is bad for me LOL he already knows.
Talking of moving in your sleep; as someone with PTSD, I have woken up falling back onto my bed and have even woken up in midair as I lept out of bed during a night terror. I always managed to land on my feet rather than fall down; don't ask me how I did this, thankfully therapy helped my night terrors virtually disapear. I still ocassinally startle myself awake on rare occasion; but no more leaping out of bed, or starteling so bad I completely leave the bed. A boss I used to have who also had PTSD told me that; he would leap over his wife in his sleep.
I'm in the shower for a good 15 minutes, sometimes longer. Although I will say, I turn the water off whilst I'm sudsing :) I don't know how people take so little time in the shower, I kinda wish I had that superpower :)
I probably spend up to an hour in the shower and feel like it's the one thing that destresses me almost completely for as long as I'm in there. Short shower is about 5-10 minutes, average probably 15-20. I could literally spend 2 hours in a shower. There's not much in my life that makes me feel alive, but that's one of them.
Been to cosmetology school. Not a licensed cosmetologist because I wasn't able to finish clinicals due to medical reasons, BUT I can personally attest that you should NOT wash your hair daily. It is actually better for your hair to go two or in some cases even three days without washing it. If it starts to get overly oily or if you have chronic conditions like dandruff more washes may be necessary, but otherwise it's recommended to not wash your hair more than maybe three times a week in order to maintain natural oils that keep your hair and scalp healthy.
In that case, what's your professional opinion on braiding your hair (in a loose braid) every night before bed? Is it actually necessary or does it really protect your hair? I also hear beauty youtubers mention silk pillowcases a lot so idk if that's a factor
@@EllieofAzeroth I wouldn't call it necessary, but if you have long hair it would be extremely helpful. Keeps things from getting tangled so you won't have to deal with a rat's next the next morning, and if you're married or living with a partner they will thank you. I have a silk pillow case, only because it was a gift for Christmas, and I haven't seen any changes of any kind since putting it on the bed. Although it does stay cooler so there's a plus.
Silly question to. So say if you have a normal day does that mean like take a quick shower and wash other parts of your body? Then hair every couple days or something?
@@madmadammeag5141 keep your silk pillow case! I've found that I rarely ever end up with pillow lines on my face upon waking. I can assure you, decades of pillow lines add up on your face! And yes! It does stay cooler which is a bonus!
RE: Throwing up while brushing teeth. For me it was something in the toothpaste. Certain types would trigger while others would not. I'm currently using Arm & Hammer toothpaste with no issues.
Same, but I have to finish off the type I have to get rid of it so I can use something different. I’m using Sensodyne Rapid Relief. (It’s not the brand that’s bothering me but the specific Rapid Relief one that is, as I didn’t have this problem with the different Sensodyne toothpaste I had before.)
You're the first people I've known of who's also had a gag/vomit response to brushing teeth. In my case, I figured out it was correlated to PMR (polymyalgia rheumatica). Shortly after starting prednisone therapy, the gagging stopped. I had thought the sudden onset of gagging was stress induced. Very weird.
The only instances where I sorta have some gag reflex is when I brush my tongue. Otherwise never had a gag reflex by brushing my teeth. Sure, I had some mildly disgusting toothpaste, and an eucaliptus/mint one that burned like hellfire, but nothing that made me gag :s
I found that when I switched to non mint toothpaste I stopped gagging and actually brushed my teeth more often. Ive had much better dentist visits since!
Yeah, but most of those words are the obscure ones & they're pretty much all Latin or Greek. It's amazing the variation in pronunciation you sometimes get from one doctor to another, since so many words you learn by reading them as opposed to hearing them :)
I don't wash my hair everyday and I definitely do agree that it's personalized for everyone. I don't take long showers because it is not needed to keep wasting the water... not that the water bill would go up a lot, but environmentally, it's not good to keep running the water. There is lotion if someone's skin is super dry and I think it's valid to not shower every day, though groin area may smell (I'm not sure...) I take short and sometimes cold showers... I'm a weird gal.
I wonder. I dream extensively between hitting the snooze button but I doubt I am actually in a deep sleep then. It's probably more dreaming while in a light sleep.
The sleep chart shown in this video is actually kinda flipped, Like in reality REM sleep (aka. dreaming) occurs even before stage 1, being a state of constantly almost waking up. This is why its so easy to wake up after a dream :)) Also the stages cycle several times during sleep resulting in multiple dreams people cant remember for some reason
To each his own with bathing. My step children grew up taking a long bath everyday for years. Even after one was diagnosed with eczema. When mom passed away and we got the kids full time I put that to a stop. I have eczema myself and know how horrible it can feel. Scaling back to only showering and 2-3 times a week has made major improvements.
The purpose of the shower isn’t just to clean your own sweat and oils off, it’s to get all the contaminants from OTHER people off your body. People are sneezing, vaping, smoking, etc around you all day long - FACT. There are a lot of sick and sickly people out there with contagious conditions. Wash that stuff off with hot water and soap! Paranoia is a fear of something that doesn’t exist….airborne and blood borne pathogens exist.
@@MusicStudent1 even if someone should shower every day it probably shouldn't be with soap every day. Shower every other day with soap and then the days inbetween with just water.
I shower & wash my hair daily. I enjoy a shower and can't deal with body & hair odor of those that go days without washing. Hair is especially odorous after a few days.
Some of us need to shower twice almost every day just to feel clean enough to be comfortable enough to sleep xD Personally, first thing in the morning (or whenever we wake up), shower, bath, shower. Then just before we sleep, a simple shower. We are Autistic and have various other Neurodivergent conditions, that and if we don't do all that pretty much daily, instead of just a quick shower, we feel absolutely terrible, aaaaaallll, daaaaayyyyyy. The bath is just to relax all our joints tbh though, the showers are where the cleansing is at. Hair washing is more of an every two or three day thing, sensitive scalp, naturally soft and relatively clean hair. For anyone wondering why we refer to ourself as "we", simple answer, OSDD-1B, please go Google DID vs OSDD, first website that compares these conditions should give you a pretty good idea as to why we're a "we" and not a "me" most of the time.
Showers: when I was in my late 20s - 30s; when I worked a full time job plus worked horses 5-6 days a week; I sure did NEED to shower every day. Now that I’m 69 1/2, disabled from a type of stroke that is fatal 70% of the time (luckily a rarer type of stroke), am retired and still trying to learn to walk again, it’s fine if I shower every 2 or 3 days. So when “SHOULD people shower”? Depends. As you get older, you realize that “it depends” is frequently the “correct” answer.
I am so glad to have come across this video and your comment. I work at Walmart and I don't get sweaty or hot or anything so every few days I'll take a shower and once a week I'll rinse out my hair and wash it because it is very coarse and curly. I hope you are healing well and this message finds you doing very well.

Do you go to the doctor even if your a doctor?
Doctors go to doctors to reduce bias. Just like lawyers hire lawyers to protect them in lawsuits.
I've heard people say you should only wash your hair once a week. Frankly, I don't care if that's the healthiest thing to do. I refuse to walk around with greasy hair the majority of the week. I'll choose the non-greasy option personally 😂
So I really appreciate that Dr Mike says it's individual. We're all different so our hair and skin have different needs ♥
when u wash ur hair less often over time ur hair becomes less greasy. Washing it often makes your scalp want to produce more oil.
If you wash your hair less, it will start taking longer to get greasy. I have straight hair, which usually gets greasy earlier than other types of hair, and I wash it once a week. And it only starts getting greasy by saturday.
I have fine hair and it becomes a bit greasy after 7-8 days, and that's when I wash it.
same i hate greasy hair but it's actually a good thing to let your hair get a little greasy for a day instead of immediately washing it because you're stripping your scalp of necessary oils
It times time for your hair to get used to it ( I only wash mine 2 times a week) it's never greasy but for the Majority of those that are daily washers their hair gets overly greasy quickly because your hair/ Scalp is trying to over Compensate for the oils the shampoo Strips out of your hair
As a researcher in immunology I can also add that vaccination in the shoulder promptly activates dendritic cells that take the antigen to big lymph nodes in the armpit where strong and lasting immune responses can develop ;)
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the video editing and other stuff done here?
AMAZING SPARKLES!!!!
I've had ringing in my ears since I was a teenager and I'm in my 30s now. Some days it's worse than others, but it never stops.
Dr. Mike: no need to wash your hair everyday.
Me: laughs and cries in baldness.
Congrats, you never have to wash your hair anddd you save a lot of money by not buying hairproducts. Yay!
I feel you. I still wash my head with anti-dandruff shampoo though as it doesn't really go away with the hair leaving...

There's three types of showers. Short showers after a workout for the body and skip the hair, and long showers that include washing the hair, then really long showers that include shaving the things that need to be shaved.
I will shower when I'm up to it, extreme pain and chronic illness makes it a significant issue. Other days, I use wet wipes and dry shampoo.
Ever since my hair stylist told me to stop washing my hair everyday with shampoo… my hair went from being oily everyday, to being normal! Yay for not stripping all the natural hair oils daily with shampoo and having your body producing extra oils and making your hair extra oily 🥳
Then how often should one wash their hair with shampoo?
@@ffadicto it depends on the hair type thin/thick/curly etc… but just so you know it will take several weeks for your hair to adjust. So if you used to wash it everyday, it will be oily for a little while until it gets used to the new routine. I usually try to shampoo it about twice per week.
I did this for months. Nothing changed except I developed an unhealthy and itching scalp. Must continue to wash daily with low pH shampoo.
Use shampoo according to your scalp type , usually 3-4 times
I was literally just thinking about itches and how it works 😂😂😂 big brother is definitely spying on me and my thoughts
Brazil: two daily showers, one when waking up, one after arriving home from work - 10 to 15 min.
Me to ..Twice daily is normal ..
You are a good and kind person
In Germany it's very different from person to person. I take a bath every second day. My friend every day, my sis 2 showers a day. 🤷🏼♀️

Same.
When you are from the country that is part of the culture to take 2 or more showers per day. Lol😂🇧🇷
My aunt dated someone from Panama and everyone was so confused because he would shower multiple times a day for at least an hour each I only found out through research for a school project that this was completely normal in Panama since it's so hot and it's kind of just a cultural thing
I think its pretty normal for people who lives in a more humid and hotter place, to shower 2 or 3 times a day. Like nobody wants to be icky from all the sweats.
@@sashat3632 That is correct. In Brazil, for example, daily showers is almost “mandatory”. 2-3 showers daily is very normal.
sim!! muito estranho morar nos estados unidos e eles so tomarem 1 banho por dia e as vezes nem tomar banho

Note: He said that it depends on one's lifestyle.
I workout everyday should i shower after workout?
@@enielmusic223 - of course! You will get itchy from all the sweat blocking your pores otherwise. And the dried sweat will smell too.
You can go on a cold(er) shower tho, and try to not soap yourself as much, basically just refreshing your body if i could say. Not an actual full on shower but more like an in and out thing
@@alexandretremblay6817 In and Out?
@@lestervillogaofficial maybe they mean you should be quick with it
Based on my own experience, I would say that an itch is when a micro-tear in one’s flesh gets filled with fluid, causing a mixed reaction aimed towards both the pain and contact sensors firing simultaneously. That or it’s something that I have no idea what it is.
I do shower daily. I just really enjoy the refreshed feeling after.
Me after washing my hair only twice a week when I get the notification for this video: *visible panic*
Twice a week is plenty. People seem to forget you don't need to wash your hair every time you shower
Lol we're in lockdown, what to worry about
@@rkah6187 yeah I know, I was joking. My hair is knee length so it takes about 3 hours to fully wash and brush my hair, so that’s why I dont do it so often

The movements in sleep especially while dreaming are so real. I'm glad at the moment I sleep alone because I often end up punching or kicking in my sleep and dreams and at this point someone would get hurt because it's full force. Hmmm? I wonder if THAT is normal?
I have really long hair, there's literally no way I could possibly wash just my hair in 3-4 minutes, let alone wash my hair and properly shower. That's insane.
I'm 5ft7, and my hair is thicccccc and all the way to my butt. It takes longer than that to wash just my hair, especially because I shampoo my scalp twice 🤣
@@erihppaseiram9795 omg me too! My hair is thick and reaches below my waist. I also shampoo my scalp twice and condition it once. By the time i’m done it’s been like 30-45 mins (including washing my body). Don’t even get me started on how long it takes to shave on top of that 40 mins 💀
I think he meant that some people need to wash their bodies more often than they need to wash their hair so on days like that, focusing on the groin and pits only as opposed to soaping up everything is a good option for your skin.
Yeah me too I have very thick and long hair and I take about 15 minutes to shower.
I was also thinking the same things
Two times per day, including hair. So many reasons why. ;-) Make 'em fast to save water/energy, etc.
I swear I’m constantly telling my husband all these things that I’m learning from Dr. Mike’s channel and he’s like what is it now what am I not allowed to do what am I not allowed to eat what is bad for me LOL he already knows.
That's actually a good thing to do :D Take care Both of you :))
I'd like to sell you a comma
Talking of moving in your sleep; as someone with PTSD, I have woken up falling back onto my bed and have even woken up in midair as I lept out of bed during a night terror. I always managed to land on my feet rather than fall down; don't ask me how I did this, thankfully therapy helped my night terrors virtually disapear. I still ocassinally startle myself awake on rare occasion; but no more leaping out of bed, or starteling so bad I completely leave the bed. A boss I used to have who also had PTSD told me that; he would leap over his wife in his sleep.
"your shower should be 3-4 min".. then there is me who showers half an hour and sits 2 hours in the bath tub 🙈😅
I dont get how someone can only take 3 to 4 minutes in the shower the shampoo and conditioner have to sit in the hair for about 3 minutes each
@@saradavidsen1502 If you just shower without washing your hair, you can make it in 3, 4 minutes.
I'm in the shower for a good 15 minutes, sometimes longer. Although I will say, I turn the water off whilst I'm sudsing :) I don't know how people take so little time in the shower, I kinda wish I had that superpower :)
that's a lot of water wasted tho.
@@Laura_Norda I turn it off when sudsing too because I do take long showers if I'm also washing my hair. And shaving takes time too lol.
I have to do my final assignment but I'm watching 'should you shower daily' video just bc doctor mike 👍
Literally same thing with me
Sammmme
I probably spend up to an hour in the shower and feel like it's the one thing that destresses me almost completely for as long as I'm in there. Short shower is about 5-10 minutes, average probably 15-20. I could literally spend 2 hours in a shower. There's not much in my life that makes me feel alive, but that's one of them.
"While I am delicious, I am healthy"

Been to cosmetology school. Not a licensed cosmetologist because I wasn't able to finish clinicals due to medical reasons, BUT I can personally attest that you should NOT wash your hair daily. It is actually better for your hair to go two or in some cases even three days without washing it. If it starts to get overly oily or if you have chronic conditions like dandruff more washes may be necessary, but otherwise it's recommended to not wash your hair more than maybe three times a week in order to maintain natural oils that keep your hair and scalp healthy.
In that case, what's your professional opinion on braiding your hair (in a loose braid) every night before bed? Is it actually necessary or does it really protect your hair? I also hear beauty youtubers mention silk pillowcases a lot so idk if that's a factor
@@EllieofAzeroth I wouldn't call it necessary, but if you have long hair it would be extremely helpful. Keeps things from getting tangled so you won't have to deal with a rat's next the next morning, and if you're married or living with a partner they will thank you.
I have a silk pillow case, only because it was a gift for Christmas, and I haven't seen any changes of any kind since putting it on the bed. Although it does stay cooler so there's a plus.
Silly question to. So say if you have a normal day does that mean like take a quick shower and wash other parts of your body? Then hair every couple days or something?
@@prestongarvey2961 yes. I personally just pull my hair up with a clip of something on those days to keep it out of the water.
@@madmadammeag5141 keep your silk pillow case!
I've found that I rarely ever end up with pillow lines on my face upon waking.
I can assure you, decades of pillow lines add up on your face!
And yes! It does stay cooler which is a bonus!
Today I learned that it’s not normal that I’ve been exposed to loud noises or not I just thought everyone had that😅
*Today I learned that my ears ringing* I forgot to add ears ringing, sorry😢
RE: Throwing up while brushing teeth.
For me it was something in the toothpaste. Certain types would trigger while others would not.
I'm currently using Arm & Hammer toothpaste with no issues.
Same, but I have to finish off the type I have to get rid of it so I can use something different. I’m using Sensodyne Rapid Relief.
(It’s not the brand that’s bothering me but the specific Rapid Relief one that is, as I didn’t have this problem with the different Sensodyne toothpaste I had before.)
You're the first people I've known of who's also had a gag/vomit response to brushing teeth. In my case, I figured out it was correlated to PMR (polymyalgia rheumatica). Shortly after starting prednisone therapy, the gagging stopped. I had thought the sudden onset of gagging was stress induced. Very weird.
The only instances where I sorta have some gag reflex is when I brush my tongue.
Otherwise never had a gag reflex by brushing my teeth.
Sure, I had some mildly disgusting toothpaste, and an eucaliptus/mint one that burned like hellfire, but nothing that made me gag :s
I found that when I switched to non mint toothpaste I stopped gagging and actually brushed my teeth more often. Ive had much better dentist visits since!
there really aught to be more variety in toothpaste flavors
I’m pretty sure any medical professional knows more than double the words in the English dictionary than me 🤠😭
Yeah, but most of those words are the obscure ones & they're pretty much all Latin or Greek. It's amazing the variation in pronunciation you sometimes get from one doctor to another, since so many words you learn by reading them as opposed to hearing them :)
More like the words related to medicine and treatment... u would rarely use those words in a normal daily life..
im starting to learn more medical words because of my human anatomy class 🤣🤣 I feel you though
My first aid professor said once during the cpr class regarding the rib breaking " They have to be alive to complain so put your back into it"
I don't wash my hair everyday and I definitely do agree that it's personalized for everyone. I don't take long showers because it is not needed to keep wasting the water... not that the water bill would go up a lot, but environmentally, it's not good to keep running the water. There is lotion if someone's skin is super dry and I think it's valid to not shower every day, though groin area may smell (I'm not sure...)
I take short and sometimes cold showers... I'm a weird gal.
Dr Mike: Wash your hair every few days.
Me: *laughs in 4c*
Lol
Frr 😭✋🏾
Yup, too frequent for me too.
Lol he was CLEARLY not talking bout black people here.
2b/2c here 😂 i still hate my hair type honestly i dont know how to take care of it
I'm weird I can go into a deep state of sleep with full detailed dreams within like 10 minutes of falling asleep.
I wonder. I dream extensively between hitting the snooze button but I doubt I am actually in a deep sleep then. It's probably more dreaming while in a light sleep.
Me in 3 mins
The sleep chart shown in this video is actually kinda flipped, Like in reality REM sleep (aka. dreaming) occurs even before stage 1, being a state of constantly almost waking up. This is why its so easy to wake up after a dream :)) Also the stages cycle several times during sleep resulting in multiple dreams people cant remember for some reason
@@microz0258 rem is the deepest stage of sleep. It does not occur before the first stage.

To each his own with bathing. My step children grew up taking a long bath everyday for years. Even after one was diagnosed with eczema. When mom passed away and we got the kids full time I put that to a stop. I have eczema myself and know how horrible it can feel. Scaling back to only showering and 2-3 times a week has made major improvements.
“You don’t need to shower everyday”
Well I want to shower everyday
The purpose of the shower isn’t just to clean your own sweat and oils off, it’s to get all the contaminants from OTHER people off your body. People are sneezing, vaping, smoking, etc around you all day long - FACT. There are a lot of sick and sickly people out there with contagious conditions. Wash that stuff off with hot water and soap! Paranoia is a fear of something that doesn’t exist….airborne and blood borne pathogens exist.
Yes.
@@MusicStudent1 even if someone should shower every day it probably shouldn't be with soap every day. Shower every other day with soap and then the days inbetween with just water.
Ok
@@MusicStudent1 what if...what if you never leave your house
Shower twice daily if you live in Western Australia. 40c heatwaves make it necessary.
I shower & wash my hair daily. I enjoy a shower and can't deal with body & hair odor of those that go days without washing. Hair is especially odorous after a few days.
Some of us need to shower twice almost every day just to feel clean enough to be comfortable enough to sleep xD
Personally, first thing in the morning (or whenever we wake up), shower, bath, shower.
Then just before we sleep, a simple shower.
We are Autistic and have various other Neurodivergent conditions, that and if we don't do all that pretty much daily, instead of just a quick shower, we feel absolutely terrible, aaaaaallll, daaaaayyyyyy.
The bath is just to relax all our joints tbh though, the showers are where the cleansing is at.
Hair washing is more of an every two or three day thing, sensitive scalp, naturally soft and relatively clean hair.
For anyone wondering why we refer to ourself as "we", simple answer, OSDD-1B, please go Google DID vs OSDD, first website that compares these conditions should give you a pretty good idea as to why we're a "we" and not a "me" most of the time.
For all the diverse community of ppl u don't have to shower daily, but pls do, ppl will begin to treat you better

What about my meet and greets?😭
Showers: when I was in my late 20s - 30s; when I worked a full time job plus worked horses 5-6 days a week; I sure did NEED to shower every day. Now that I’m 69 1/2, disabled from a type of stroke that is fatal 70% of the time (luckily a rarer type of stroke), am retired and still trying to learn to walk again, it’s fine if I shower every 2 or 3 days. So when “SHOULD people shower”? Depends. As you get older, you realize that “it depends” is frequently the “correct” answer.
Yea I’m 16 and have to shower every day due to sports. But whenever I have a week off or something I shower like 3-4 times that week
Wishing you feel better
I am so glad to have come across this video and your comment. I work at Walmart and I don't get sweaty or hot or anything so every few days I'll take a shower and once a week I'll rinse out my hair and wash it because it is very coarse and curly.
