wy_kid_wrangler04 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Just curious. I had a discussion with a cousin who was ABSOLUTELY grossed out that I showered at night and not in the morning. She said "You have to wash the yesterday off" :001_huh: I would rather shower at night (umm, wash the today off??) and get into bed all clean. That way my bedding stays cleaner (we wash it weekly) So just curious what is more popular. Shoot. I meant to make this a poll.

MamaT Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I shower at night. I can't go to sleep unless I do (sometimes even IF I do, like right now). :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 90% of the time in the morning. It helps me wake up. Obviously that leaves 10% of the time when I do it at night due to life circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyMSews Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I shower whenever I can, depending on what else is going on. And I only shower every other day...so I guess I'm washing off two days, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Rat Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 It depends. Right now, it's summer in Las Vegas. I shower twice a day on my days off. If I'm working, I shower in the afternoons after work (I clean houses). There's just no point showering in the morning because I'll just get all yucky. And I can't wait until evening.

Priscila Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Usually at night. Sometimes i shower in the morning or the middle of the day, though. I prefer to shower last thing before bed, but it doesn't always work out, so I get it when I can get it. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gardenmom5 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) It depends on what I've been doing. I try to do yoga first thing ('cause if I don't do it first thing, I don't do it.) and then shower. If I've been working in the yard - I'll shower after that or at worst before I go to bed.

Tammi K Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I always shower in the morning because I have this thing about not leaving the house unless my hair is absolutely clean. If I wash it the night before it's already 8-12 hours gross before I hit the door the next day. Uck. But, I lived in Hawaii for 4 years and it's so hot, I got into the habit of showering before bed to get the gross off. Even though we no longer live in Hawaii, the habit stuck. So, now, brief shower at night to wash away the daily ick and quick shower in the morning to wash my hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan of Croton Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I cannot bring an uncleansed husk into my cleanly sheets; plus night bath equals vespers relax time.

jelbe5 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Usually in the am but for the past few weeks, because it had been sooooo hot (and I am starting to have hot flashes:tongue_smilie:) I have showered at bedtime. It has helped me feel cooler and fresher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom in High Heels Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I always shower in the morning after I exercise. Diann Me too. Sometimes I shower at night too, but it all depends on what went on during the day. If we've been out and about and I'm sweaty or whatever, then yes, at night. I will still shower the next day though because I can't stand the thought of going through the day dirty. :ack2: I always shower after TeA though. Though with James Bond gone for a year, there is no TeA being brewed. :sad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrie12345 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Usually at night. The kids can get kind of crazy if I lock myself in the bathroom for more than 2 minutes, and I'm not getting up before dh leaves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissKNG Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I shower every morning because I can not put on clean clothes without being clean myself.

littlebug42 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 It is usually mid-day before we leave the house to go someplace. I sweat a lot at night, so showering at night is not good for me as I need another one in the morning anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoot Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Usually morning but really, sometimes it's just whenever I get around to it. :D If I'm doing a lot of physical work at home like deep cleaning the house or working in the yard, I won't shower first. It just seems silly to shower BEFORE getting all sweaty and dirty. DH is the complete opposite though; he can't do ANYTHING before showering.

thessa516 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Both. Quick shower after morning workout, but I really like to have a bath in the evenings, too. I want to crawl into bed all clean and relaxed! I don't always get the evening bath, but I make it a priority at least a few times a week.

CyndiLJ Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Morning, always, and won't leave the house if I haven't. Otherwise, because I spin on my head all night my husband teases me that my hair looks like "Coolio". Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Always at night. I started doing this when first-born dd was about a year old. I couldn't figure out how to do it in the morning, because she and I got up at the same time (I need my sleep, too!) and I couldn't figure out what to do with her while I showered, and I didn't want to get dressed until I had a shower, so I might be in my jammies until noon when she took her nap...and one day a friend came over around 11:30 and I was still in my jammies. I was horrified. So then it ocurred to me that since Mr. Ellie was home every evening, I could shower at night and not worry about the baby. So now I shower at night and wash my hair in the kitchen sink in the morning. No one in our family has ever died because I washed my hair in the kitchen, even though probably my grandmother would be horrified. :lol: And I can get dressed immediately when I get up in the morning. I love going to bed all clean. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the sheets are smelly very quickly. Plus, my hair looks better if I wash it at night. Three of us shower at night here.

Nestof3 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Morning because: 1. My hair always tangles fiercely while I sleep 2. It takes over two hours for my hair to dry, and I really don't want to lounge around the house at night with wet hair 3. I workout almost every morning 4. If I am sweaty -- say from riding a bike in the evening -- I take a bath. Other than that, I still smell good and am clean when I go to bed.

Nestof3 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 In my case, my hair is what takes the most time during a shower, and it's far easier for me to comb it out standing upright in the shower than over a tub or sink. It's just that thick and curly. Always at night. I started doing this when first-born dd was about a year old. I couldn't figure out how to do it in the morning, because she and I got up at the same time (I need my sleep, too!) and I couldn't figure out what to do with her while I showered, and I didn't want to get dressed until I had a shower, so I might be in my jammies until noon when she took her nap...and one day a friend came over around 11:30 and I was still in my jammies.

In the Rain Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Usually both times. It helps wake me up in the morning, but I also like to feel clean when I go to bed. In the summer, a night time shower is essential. When it is 100 degrees, even running errands leaves me a sweaty mess. :glare: Dh showers at night so he won't wake everyone up early in the morning. :001_wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swellmomma Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 depends. Mostly in the morning but if it has been an overly hot/sweat/dirty type day I will shower at night too. I don't want to get into bed totally filthy or sweaty, but generally that is not an issue. I do not feel fully human in the morning unless I have showered. Even if I showered the night before I am less productive if i do not start the day with that morning shower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I've always showered at night (sometimes it doesn't work out that way, but that is my preferred method). And Ellie, we used to wash our hair in the sink when I was growing up. I thought everybody did that sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
