@madisonmauldiniectskin-com In the summer I tend to take more showers because I'm always hot and I feel like I smell when I sweat but I also understand is really drying for the skin.  I normally take 2 showers but there are those who think that it may be too much.

I take a medication that makes me produce a strong odor under my arms, no matter how much deodorant I use so it's a must to shower daily. some people get so use to their own stench that sometimes they are not even aware that they smell. it can sometimes be a struggle when having to interact with that person because you do not want them to feel embarrassed. sometimes there are medical reasons as to why a person may smell even if they are keeping up with their hygiene daily. 

@sydneymissaleiectskin-com my neighbor does not wash his hair. he wets it in the shower but does not use shampoo. I'm not sure how his wife handles it but they are a natural family as well. I've never smelt a stinch when being around him but I'm also not super close.

@keyonnastarksiectskin-com I use to always want the most girliest smelliest soaps but they irritated my skin which made me opt in to sensitive alveeno liquid soaps.

Personal hygiene is defiantly a top priority. I like to shower everyday especially because I work in a restaurant I also feel so greasy and oily after leaving and it drives me crazy. I defiantly am a perfume and scent person which is not a must but I just enjoy it.

@sydneymissaleiectskin-com i could not imagine not using soap that is very gross.

@madisonmauldiniectskin-com I was trying to train my hair not be washed everyday as well but I hate the feeling especially because my hair is naturally very oily.

I guess it is possible that people go nose blind after a while.  If I knew I was stinking, I would take care of it immediately!  Just something about not being clean grosses me out.  At the very least, rinse off and get the "important parts".

@alexisdozieriectskin-com Also, if I knew I would possibly grow yeast, I would definitely change to a cleaner hygeine routine.  That is so gross.

There are a lot of different things that can happen when someone doesn't take part in hygienic routines. skin conditions and infections that could also happen when cleaning too often. Its important to find a good medium especially if you already have pre-existing skin conditions that could be impacted by taking daily showers like eczema.

@alexisdozieriectskin-com I always have to wash everything off after working in a restaurant, smelling like scallops is the worst especially if you don't even eat seafood. I always walk out like a grease bomb even if I showered right before my shift its impossible to evade it.

@camrynauxtiectskin-com Ive been in a house that has well water and its so different, it makes me feel like I'm still dirty even if there are multiple filters with it.

personal hygiene is so important, and If one thing being in the military taught me is that not everyone is taught about the importance of it and how to maintain it properly. You'd be surprised how many grown folks think that if they just get their body wet in the shower that they are good. I have had to have this talk with many adults more times that I ever thought possible. If someone doesn't enjoy showering the least they can do is use an antibacterial soap and a washcloth and just scrub all over themselves. 

@melissalandersiectskin-com Its mind-blowing how some people can just walk around nose blind.. I don't get it. If I can smell you cant you smell yourself!

@alexisdozieriectskin-com I understand you completely with being a perfume and scent person...smelling good is one of my top priorities always! haha

@brandyhunteriectskin-com just like I learned that week with my personal hygiene after eating red onions in a salad when we were doing facials! Even personal hygiene after eating is important.

This post was interesting to read. It was informative to know what happens to the body if bathing or showering does not occur. I think showering everyday is important. Now I'm not against showering twice a day however I am aware of the different types of water and the affects it can have on your skin. Some skin types become more dry than others. Leading to dermatitis and eczema. But that falls into moisturizing properly. 

@rebeccamatuskaiectskin-com Yes I agree oral hygiene is important too.

@elianaaltamiranoiectskin-com This is how I felt showering on the ship when I was active duty. I just never felt clean enough.
