I am curious about it. In fact different places have different customs. So it's normal that some people won't have a bath everyday. Here it's very common that we have to take a shower everyday even if it's cold in winter.

I wouldn't feel good if I didn't have a shower or a bath every day, I like to wash my hair every day, I just think it is good to have that feeling of being clean..

It is a must for me to have a shower everyday, but I won't wash my hair everyday. I will wash my hair about three times a week.

I really need to take a shower here everyday because of my country's weather which is really hot and there is a huge possibility that i would stink if i dont take one. In short, i have to take at least one shower everyday.

Hi youless! I am from a tropical country and it is warm here almost all the time. So it is common practice that we take showers more than once a day. Take care and have a nice day! :)

Yes, in fact, I am taking shower two times a day. It makes me feel so clean and relax. I usually take a shower for 15 minutes.

There is a very funny saying. The people who won't have a shower everyday thinks the people who have a shower everyday are dirty. If not, why they have to have a bath everyday?:)

I have a shower everyday,for if once I don't do that ,I would feel very uncomfortable and it's hard to sleep.Especially as I live in a place where has the sub-tropical climate.The day is dry and there are so many dirty flying in the sky . I also like the feel of cleaning.

We take a shower everyday...whatever the weather. In fact, at my native place, we wash our hair everyday (it's a hot place) and people take 2-3 showers everyday. We continue the head washing even when we move out. But I find it difficult when it is too cold...because I tend to catch a cold easily. So, I have a bath but don't wash my hair everyday when it is cold.

It's the norm at our place and infact it isn't even considered a bath if you don't wash your hair. It gets very sticky because it's a hot place and I seriously doubt if anyone can go about without washing their hair everyday. And people from Kerala (that's where I am from) are known for great hair!

I don't wash my hair everyday because I think it's harmful for hair.

I take a shower everyday because I exercise and I don't like to feel dirty afterwards. I even shower in the winter because the warm water keeps my body temperature up. I hate it when I can't shower everyday like when I'm camping. But, then I still wash up. It's important to keep my skin clean and smelling good.

Yes I will take a shower everyday. I go to work everyday so I have to smell nice. I don't want my co-workers to smell me that I stink somewhere because I didn't take a bath. I take a bathe before going to work and after going to the gym. Sometimes I take a bath as well when it's very hot. It's nice to feel refreshed after a nice warm shower.:)

I stayed in a hot and humid country; I need to have at least 2 showers a day or more. And I must have at least one shower a day else I will be very uncomfortable and will be stinky as well. Most of the day, I will have 2 showers, one in the morning to freshen myself before going to work and this takes about 10 to 15 minutes. I like the warm water running down my body in the morning after waking up. The other is in the night to make myself clean before I go to bed and this takes about 5 minutes, just to clean myself.

Everyday twice a day, cleaning yourself keeps you healthy and it also is a good habit, the better your hygien the better your health, less likely you are to get infections. So my answer is even if you custom is different you should do it anyway, everyone needs a bath.

As like you said dear youless, each places has different custom and behaviour of its people. i live on tropical country which only has two season which is rainy season and drought season. so i t hink you can imagine that almost everyday we having sun light and make our body getting sweat in our daily activities. by this matter, taking a shower should be done everyday in fact we doing it twice a day. some people in my country used to take shower three times or even more in a day. anyway nice to know that in your country, even in winter season, your people still taking a bath daily :)

I take shower everyday, mostly twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night. Sometime when I am running late I will miss that but I won't miss the one at nite because I like to feel fresh when I goes to bed.
