How long do you need to clean yourself in the shower or in the bad? What is the longest time that you ever take for shower or bath?

My showers always range it depends on what tasks I need to do. If I am just washing up it takes maybe about 15 minutes but when it is shaving time they can last a bit longer. Also sometimes I just like to let the hot water run on me for awhile it all depends on my mood.

It depends on the day. During Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I usually take about less than 15 minutes because I have to be in school by 8:30am. I'm too lazy to get up early on those days so I always have to be on a rush. On every other day though, it usually takes me 30 minutes or more. I even sometimes hum out a tune or two.

15 until 30 minutes in the bath are still normal in my opinion. Thank you for sharing.

I can usually get a shower done in 5 minutes. I'm not a girly girl, I just get in, gt clean, and get out. My boyfriend, however, takes forevr to shower! He uses all these differetn soaps for different parts of his body, plus special hair stuff, and then lotions afterwards. LOL Not me! When I take a bath though I like to fill it up with hot water and soak until it's cold. usually with a good book and some scented candles.

I really enjoy showering. I try to spend as much time as I can and enjoy it. I think that the longest I have been in the shower is about 35 minutes. It is nice taking a bath when there is nothing else interesting you can think of to do. I usually do it at night because I can relax after a long day.

I am not worry if I took long bath or shower but the other in the house probably will complain since they also need to use the bath room.

I take about 15-20 minutes a day to bathe but if I take a nice hot bath I can be in there for an hour or so.

Mine can take from as fast as 2 minutes to as long as 1 hour. The quick one would take place when I slept late and then woke up late and I had to rush. The long one would happen when I slept late and then woke up late but fell asleep again in the bathroom. There you go!

Hello dear nyumix. It depends on the season. I usually take a shower every other day in winter, sometimes every three days, but in all the other seasons at least a shower is needed. In summer I take more than one, sometimes it might reach as many as four. Because I hate to feel sticky in the humid summer weather, especially after I exercise. I do not take a long shower. A fifteen-minute shower is enough for me. I love to take a shower as it helps me get refreshed. Thanks for your discussion.

The longest time I have taken a bath is a hour. It is when I go to Kentucky and my sister-in-law has a sunken tub and I just pour the bubble bath in. Get my CD player and my CD's and have a ear phone that I bring. I slide down into the tub and lay my head back on the towels I have folded there and put my ear phones on and am in seventh heaven. I just totally relax and lose myself. Before I know it a hour has gone and much as I hate to I have to get out of the tub. I absolutely love the relaxing of doing this. But when I am not over there I take a shower. My tub is not big enough to get full the way I like it so I can soak. In my tub you just can't soak.

It depends. If I'm in a hurry, I can finish my bath in three to five minutes. But if I have time, it can take as long as an hour. Once a week, I do a "general body cleaning", and it takes a little more than an hour.
