where's the hour choice?

When I'm short on time, 10-15 minutes. If it was up to me, I'd be in for at LEAST 30 minutes.

There have been many occasions where I've spent over an hour...
wtf do you do in the shower for an hour?

girls that take this long need to have the hot water shut off on them i.e. my sister.
we have the awesome system of turning on another hot tap in the house na dthe shower goes cold. Saves us from having to yell.

30 mins to do the whole routine (shampoo, exfoliate, wash & shave if I need to), but at least 15 mins for a hurried shower.

...that's time -in- the shower. Takes a while more to dry off, moisturise, paint nails and things like that. :eek:

I take mostly cold showers though, so I like to think that I'm wasting less water than ppl having steaming showers. ;)

Q: What do you prefer: steaming/tepid/cold showers?
@ least 15 mins for hurried shower?

cold...hot...wouldnt you use the same amount if the tap's at the same level of pressure/water flow?

oh, and personally, if im sick i take hot. After sport colder (not freezing). winter hot, summer cold :/

10-30 mins..depends on what i'm doing and how lazy i feel or how hurried i am. quick ones i can do in 5-ish, doing my hair usually takes 20-ish though i have done it in under 20 a couple of times (but i usually cant be bothered).
normal routine: wash hands, wash top half, wash bottom half, cleanse and/or scrub (if i have one in the shower) face, get out, dry, moisturise
washing hair routine: wash hands, shampoo in, shampoo out, conditioner in, wash body, conditioner out, wash face, get out, dry, moisturise, straighten hair if i want/need to

i usually stand with my back to the water, though i do rotate
my showers are fairly hot, but not boiling. cold/cooler ones on really hot days/after beach/excersise

I thought I was bad having a few showers a day!!!

I spend a couple of minutes each time and when I need to shave, I use the bath tub.

I'll spend maybe 5-10 minutes in the shower. If I want to "relax" I'll soak in a bath. Less water wastage that way.

i think for girls it also depends on the length of hair..i used to take between 20-30mins but then i cut my hair and now i'm between 10-20 (the longer time being when i shave and/or how much i decide to think and relax haha)

sometimes. i like to, but most of the time i forget to take the toothpaste and brush in there. i hate getting out of the shower, then having to brush my teeth. its better if its all done when you get out. :D

i cant spend very long in the shower cuz the steam makes my eyes hurt - so i'm only in there for 10 mins or so

maybe its coz i have the shower so steaming hot.. meh i dunno


although, the time in the shower doesnt = the time spent int he bathroom
because i do all my waxing exfoliating and face cleaning out of the shower

I take 20-25 mins in the shower. I don't understand how you can take less that 5 mins in the shower! What time is there to do anything? :p

Depends on the time of year. During summer and spring I usually take cold showers, during winter I like warm to hot showers and in autumn I like warm showers.
