Are you the type of person who spends so much time inside the bathroom when taking a bath? Or you're the quickie type that can finish taking a bath even for couple of minutes? When i take a bath, it usually takes 15 minutes for me to finish so. Yeah, I spend that much time. I like to be in the bathroom for quite sometime especially now that it's almost summer season in our country, so it's getting hotter each day. Another thing, I have a long wavy hair so i need to shampoo it, then put some conditioner afterwards, then soap my body, etc. Do you also spend much time in taking a bath or you're more or less than the 15 minutes that I got :)

Yes like 20 to 30mins whenever im taking a bath, i always spend that long inside. Just wanna relax myself while taking a bath coz for me its very important. I dont tend to take a bath so fast as you'll not be able to do everything to sooth your needs and really clean urself you know? Its very important that you are clean with yourself coz it's your body. And for me, being a person who has a mood swing, i prefer to start my day in a good way by taking a bath without any hazel, that's why. Have a nice day ahead.

I take showers and the hot water never lasts more than 5 minutes. So, I turn it on get all soaked. Turn it off, shampoo the hair, scrub the body. Turn it on and rinse off quick. Of course even in that short duration I get a bunch of Maw, Mom! Mommy's coming from outside the room...so it would not be much of a relaxation even if I did have a long time in there.

I take about 15 minutes as well. I know it wastes water, but I almost always brush my teeth in the shower, and I shave my legs there as well. I just love to be in the shower, I guess. All that steam is relaxing!

i take bath for about 15-20 minuntes on weekdays and on weekends i take my own time to come out of the bathroom. i just love to lie down in the tub and read a book or just relax closing my eyes. it releivs me of all the stress. It also give me time to connect to myself.

I actually took a bubblebath last night. It tok me longer to prepare( clean the tub, chose the bubblebath,conditioner, face mask, a book and a drink) than to soak. Then I have to have a quick shower to wash off the dirty bubble water from the bath. I soaked for about 20 minutes and read 3 chapters. When I take a shower it usually takes about 15 minutes.

It depends on how warm the water are. I can spend an hour in the bathroom singing, and I totaly forget about the water bill that's gonna come in the end of the month. My mom is always yells at me that i'm finish all the hot water, and that she gets high water bills to pay just because of me.

I spend about 10 to 15 minutes in the shower. My father says that it is too much but I enjoy it so much that I just can’t make it any shorter. If I could I would probably take a one hour shower every day.

No fixed duration for me, my friend. I normally take as long as I feel like. That's provided I have time of course. Otherwise I can even do a really quick one and finish within 1 or 2 min. :P

It actually depends. If on a daily basis, it takes me 15 minutes to take a bath. If i'm in such a hurry, it takes me 5-10 mins. If it's a bubble bath, about 30-45 mins. lol =)

I take 2 shower daliy, one in the morning before going to work and one in the night before going to bed. The morning shower is uaually longer about 15min, as it is very refreshing to have warm water running down the body. The night is shorter about 5 min.
