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.

Once a day, I feel like trash if I even skip one day.

Tho honestly I often wonder if twice a day is optimal. I always feel great the few times I take it twice, but when I only take it once, I always wake up wanting to shower immediately to get the oil off.

On days I leave the house, I shower once in the morning. That used to be 5-6 times per week, but since COVID I’ve been working from home, so that number is 1-2. I’ll also shower after swimming or strenuous exercise, though that’s rare for me.

Gas ain't cheap here. I bath once or twice a week, but i'll have a quick shower once a day (unless I bathe)

At the moment, none, because I’m not able to - having to keep myself clean with basically just a basin and soap. Usually, somewhere between 0.25 and 0.5 a day. I don’t really get particularly dirty or sweaty. If I did get particularly dirty/sweaty then I’d just shower ASAP.

One. Maybe one every other day depending on what I'm doing.

Once in a while twice in a day again depending on what I'm doing.

Normally one but it's worth pointing out I don't live in a warm country, it's freezing here. I am not a morning person so I tend to take showers in the evening because I just can't be bothered in the morning, again because it's cold I don't really want to get undressed and get wet.

Every day before bed. If I exercise earlier in the day then I’ll shower twice.

I live on an island in the Mediterranean sea where it's really hot so I shower at least once a day and usually before I go to bed. When I used to live in Manchester I would shower every other day

I shower twice a day and my friends said they only shower once a day (I have to wonder if it's due to their conditioners and perfumes)

the times I've switched to showering once a day or every other day is when there was water shortages and droughts happening here

plus I like my showers to destress after a long day :)

Baths? Zero. Can't remember the last year I laid in a tub. Not even sure the last decade.

How often do to clean my body? Daily, via a shower. If it's a day off I might skip a day.
