    I’ve been a night showerer and a morning showerer throughout different periods of my life. These days I’m actually closer to a lunch showerer - which I realize isn’t practical for most, but it’s the superior method if one showers only once a day.

    I’m a golden showerer. Rated 5/5

    EDIT: I have just been informed that doesn’t mean what I thought it meant

    I shower 2-3 times a week in the middle(-ish) of the day.

    Showers make me sleepy so can’t do early mornings. I have very long, straight, and thick hair that takes hours to air dry, and refuse to use blow dryers, so night is right out else I end up with a really shit bed-head curl situation…

    The sweet spot is mid-morning or around lunch, when I get sleepy anyway, given an hour to half-dry, then put up in a french clip bun, so when I take it down for the evening, it has a nice open curl. I never use the pretty, but it makes me feel very pretty at night.

        Yeah, and I’ve also tried stuff like conditioner washing (co-wash), mostly when I did fun dye colors, to preserve the color. But my threshold to feel gross is honestly low enough that my hair feeling nasty is my shower habit trigger, else I simply wont do any self-care. So while it’s technically an option, it’s not one that works with my self. :D

      Still seems better than bringing street grime into your bedsheets daily?

      I’m the opposite, my hair looks better after it had time to settle overnight. I blow-dry my hair after I shower but it doesn’t look great immediately after.

      If/when I shower at night, I just need to soak my hair in the shower, scruff it a bit, then towel dry. Then I can comb it out and style it as if I just took a fresh shower.

      I’m a guy though, with relatively short hair. If I had long hair like this photo, it’d probably be a rat’s nest in the morning and need a full shower to fix.

    Most of us sweat, I think if you plan to interact with another person, it’s kinda basic decorum to not start your day with 10h of sweat on you already.

      The pic could also be titled “evening showerers waking up in the morning”.

      But really, it depends on your job. If you work outside all day and get sweaty and dirty, you probably want to shower when you get home. If you show up at that job 12+ hours since your last shower with a bit of sweat etc. it doesn’t really matter.

      OTOH, if you work in an office with closed windows and lots of meetings, you probably want to be (and want others to be) as clean as possible when they show up in the morning. When you go home from that job at night, you’re probably not particularly dirty and not in bad need of a shower. So, unless you want to shower twice a day, you might as well wait for the morning.

        This was my exact thought too. Sometimes I think I’m the only person on Lemmy that doesn’t have an office job. If I did morning showers, I’d supposed to be spending my evening and night drenched in sweat and who knows what else from work? Doesn’t sound very pleasant.

    If you’re doing anything in your bed other than sleeping, you may need to shower and change your sheets more often.

    And if you shower and change your sheets more often, you might increase the chances you’ll be doing more in your bed than sleeping.

    I will also suggest having a lidded trashcan in the bathroom, and a hand shower.
