    If your skin is dry, or sensitive, or if you have eczema, I recommend shower cream.
  • Question
    How do I resist wading in the warm water?
    Community Answer
    Try timing yourself to be faster each time, which will limit the time you have to "wade in the water." Also, remind yourself that your feet are wallowing in the dirt you've just washed off and the longer the feet wade in that water, the wrinklier they'll get.
  • Question
    Is there a fast way to dry hair?

    Yes. A hair drier is a very fast way, but is not the best for your hair if you are doing it every day. It is perfectly fine and healthy for your hair to leave it damp after towel-drying.
  • Question
    It takes super long to wash my body. How do I wash it quickly?
    Community Answer
    Find a body wash that foams or covers more area, or setting a timer also helps. If you set a five-minute timer for your whole shower, set a 3 minute timer too, so you know when to start washing your body. Then after the five-minute one goes off, you know when you should be done with body washing. Eventually, if you don't get it the first time, you'll get it after a little bit and soon, you won't even need the timer.
  • Question
    What can I do if my armpits start to smell just a few minutes after I get out of the shower?
    Community Answer
    Use deodorant or antiperspirant. You may have to apply it more than once a day. If you've tried this and you still think you smell, switch to a different brand/product, or consult your doctor to rule out any potential medical issues.
  • Question
    What do I do if I want to pee, and I'm in the shower?
    Community Answer
    It's not consider sanitary, but normally a girl will be able to pee while standing up. Just lean your vagina forward towards the drain and go ahead and pee.
  • Question
    What motivation can I get to get in the shower if I'm tired?
    Community Answer
    Make it like a game where if you can beat your last shower time (clean properly though) you give yourself a prize or reward. Make it like a game and keep track of every time so you can keep track of the best time that week. Have fun with it.
  • Question
    What if I need to shave?
    Community Answer
    Use moisturiser to shave before or after your shower, it gets it done quickly and it decreases the risk of cutting your leg if you're rushing.
  • Question
    Does mixing shampoo and conditioner work just as well as two-in-one?
    Community Answer
    No, so you should just use your shampoo and conditioner separately.
  • Question
    What if I want to take a shower before I get ready for school?
    Community Answer
    Just wash the vital parts, those being your armpits, privates, and face. Then rinse quickly and dry off.
  • Question
    How do I shave quickly without cutting myself?
    Community Answer
    Use lots of shaving cream (or other lubricant), and make sure to drag the razor against the grain of hairs, carefully. Do long strokes, but stay slow, so you can cover lots of space but not cut yourself. Make sure your razor is new.
  • Question
    What if my 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner makes my hair greasy?
    InfoKiwi
    Community Answer
    2-in-1 shampoo and conditioners usually don't work. Instead, apply the shampoo to the roots and then rinse it out. After that, apply conditioner an inch away from the roots down to your tips. This method is pretty quick, but it achieves better results than a 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner combo.
  • Question
    How can I do this if I have to wash my hair and shave?
    Community Answer
    Start out with washing your hair quickly and don't use a whole lot of time just messing around. Shave quickly and only do the parts of your body that will be exposed.
  • Question
    I shower every other day. Do I need to wash my hair each time I shower?

    That depends on your hair type. Some people will have to wash it every day, some every other day, some every three days, some once a week, etc. Try testing out what works best for you and your hair. If your hair starts looking unhealthy or your scalp starts to itch, you need a shower, so try washing it before that happens.

  • Question
    Is it okay if I dry my hair every other day?
    Top Answerer
    Yes. If you don't dry your hair after a shower, it will take longer to dry, but you will reach a similar result as if you dry it with a towel or blow dryer.
