I take a long shower once a week on weekend, which takes more than an hour. Everyday I take a quick shower, which only takes about 20 minutes. I love bulb bath and take it once a week. I like to lay down in the tub and light candles with light music. It makes me relax.

Shower helps to clean with speed. Simply rub your lather or foam and open the shower. It should not take long period. I also get it finish with in 15 to 20 minutes. There are some other steps before and after having the shower, which take more than the time I described here. These steps are consisted on removal of cloths, and also wearing them. Combing, creaming, and decorating are the time absorbing steps after taking shower.

I have about a 10 minute shower. We have too many people getting ready at the same time to allow for a longer one. I admit though when I am alone in the house I will stay in until the water runs cold!

I would say that I take a minimum of 30 min in the shower each morning. Sometimes up to 45 min or so. I figure, it is my house, I pay the bill, and I can take as long as I like. I enjoy the hot water, the steam opening my pours. Everyone says that I take to long, especially my mother when i go to visit her, but my shower is really the only time all day that I am alone, and I am going to enjoy that time.

30 minutes is too long. 10-15 minutes is about right. If not sooner. How long does it take to get wet, lather bod. Then you rinse. Wet hair, lather rinse. Maybe you repeat this step for hair. If you are in there for 1/2 an hour you must be enjoying the hot water. If that's the case, be sure to lotion down afterwards. All that time in the shower is supposed to be bad for the skin. Gets rid of the natural moisture.
