I mean how much time? hehe because some people really can spend hours in the shower, I'm won't be surprise. I think I'm reasonable, Iusually take 20-30 minutes in the shower. Sometimes it might take little longer when I do facial - 20 moreminutes extra. I think washing my hair takes me longest time besides doing facial because my hair is really long and thick, and I need to use conditioner everytime otherwise, it gets really dry and hard to comb. How about your bath habits?

1 hours to be maximum. It is when I have to wash my clothes by hands. Well, while I can go to the river beside my town then I can spend even 3 hours in taking bath there. I know how to swim a little and that's why I enjoy in river.

Ocean! Wow! I have never been to ocean and would like to swim becaue I have heard that it is easier swimming in ocean rather than in a river. Is it right? And don't you get salt all over your body when you come out of it?

Usually I take as much time as it takes me to wash my hair, shave, and wash my body them I'm out. I have five kids and if they are home I don't like not knowing what is going on so that makes me a speed demon in the shower. But that will change a bit now the my SO is layed off. But today I'm going to take as long as I want to get the steam in my lungs and sinuses since I have a sinus infection and the doctor feels that this would be a good thing to take a long shower.

I love taking long showers, but I think the most I ever spent in the shower was an hour, but usually I'll spend about 25 minutes.

I usually have 2times shower a day it keeps me fresh and energetic and helps me to reduce body heat. It very good habit if you come home from work and then stand in shower for few minutes you will get relaxed from office tensions and will have new energy to enjoy with family members

Showers oh I love them. I can stay in the shower for hours at a time. I actually had to stop taking them in the morning or else I would be behind schedule. I have to wait until the kids are sleeping in order to take a long shower. Showers are a heat therapy for me. They relax me and I take them extra hot as I love hot water. I think the longest that I have taken a shower for is about three hours. What do you consider to be reasonable time for a shower and how did you come to this conclusion? It takes extra long when I have to shave or wash my hair as I have dread locks and those are the worst to wash. You have to scrub as if you are hand washing clothes. UHGGG it is a pain in the butt, however it has to be done. Sometimes I am in there so long that the water goes cold.

Most times I am in and out of the shower 10 minutes. My hair is short/to medium length so it does not take long to wash/condition. I am usually showering to go to work or out somewhere and on a time crunch. Another reason I do not take a long shower is I am trying to save water, I try to be environmentally conscience most times. There are times when I stay in the shower longer, to shave and just relax, maybe 20-25 minutes but that is real rare.

I usually spend 15 minutes in the shower . i generally take some 5-10 min extra for washing my clothes . Sometimes i forget to brush the teeth (he he) , so i also do that before bathing. if i take more than 20 min, my parents will shout at me. Come soon and get out .
