So, Are We Waiting for the Dirt To Pile Up Or Are We Showering Everyday?
The “No Need to Shower Movement” is on like Donkey Kong. We got all these celebs telling us we may be washing ourselves too often and it’s probably unnecessary to actually shower every single day. Their recommendation? Just wait until the dirt piles up!
Yeah….but no….
�More and more I find bathing to be less necessary, at times,� Jake Gyllenhaal, 40, revealed to Vanity Fair on Thursday, August 5. �I do also think that there�s a whole world of not bathing that is also really helpful for skin maintenance, and we naturally clean ourselves.�
Yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and respectfully disagree here.
I’m not really waiting for the dirt to pile up nor am I waiting until I start to smell before showering. Showering is part of my daily day. You can argue with me that I’m doing some major harm to my immune system or my skin but I’m probably not going to stop showering daily. Hell, sometimes I take a shower in the morning and one at night. GASP! Who even do I think I am for wanting to be THAT clean!? The nerve.
As always Mila Kunis just keeps it real here �I wash my armpits and my crotch daily, and nothing else ever,� the Black Swan star detailed. �I got a bar of Lever 2000 that delivers every time. Nothing else. I do have a tendency to throw some water on my face after a workout to get all the salts out.�
In all reality, I am all about personal hygiene. I like to smell pretty, I like my hair tucked up into a neat and tidy bun when I’m working, I make sure I floss and brush my teeth after meals, and I shower daily. I think showering isn’t only about getting cleaning but sort of my mechanism for waking up in the morning! I realize that’s not what everyone does though and hey, no judgement but I do question whether you need to wait for the dirt to pile up before hopping in the shower. I honestly couldn’t come back from a work out, splash water on my face, put my clothes on and head out. It would squeak me out. But that’s me! I realize other people do things much different than I do them!
What do you think?
Wait for the dirt or shower daily?
To shower or not to shower that’s the question!
