Which do you prefer? I take showers mostly because of lack of time but if I could do baths everyday I would...what about you?

I like both. I think that showers are great when you are more limited on time and need to get clean, but baths are so relaxing. There is nothing better than taking a bath after a long day. Baths soothe aching muscles and release some of the tensions form the day. I would love to take a bath everyday, but I also think about the amount of water that is used. When you shower, you use less water than in a bath and it is therefore better for the environment.

I take showers most all week unless my day was specially grueling lol...I do consider the water usage too. Conserving is very important I agree.Thanks for the response.

Generally I take bath instead of shower, but in winters somehow I prefer showers. But if given a choice and if have time then I like bathing as I feel you feel more clean after that as the amount of water used is more.

I really prefer to take showers as opposed to taking a bath. There is just something about sitting a tub of dirty water that I just cant do. Generally the only time I will take a bath is if I am sick, and i make sure to take a shower afterwards.

I take showers mostly because well that's what I do, it takes so much time to bring shampoo and stuff up and downstairs, I don't have a whole lot of time for a lot of things lol, so showers are the way I go, but yeah it's really nice to relax in the bathtub once in a while.

Every day i used to take shower to be clean and when i want to be get soaked in hot water with bubbles, i take a bath.only some 40% of dirt will go away by taking a shower.the other 60% is just started to soak.So its important to take bath atleast once in a week to keep your body full clean.Bathing in a bath tub is a great relaxation method too.

I'm a shower person probably because I wash my hair every day. I do a bubble bath around 2 - 3 times a year. Not very often, but I do enjoy it sometimes. As a kid, I preferred baths, but now, like you, there isn't enough time!
