HAHA, funny topic!

I don't shave or brush, but lately I've discovered the shut off valve by the shower head. What a brilliant invention that is! I use less water, and surprisingly my soap has been lasting a lot longer.

I just was myself. Usually takes me less than 5 minutes to take a shower.

On weekdays its a fast soap first shampoo in the end 5 minute deal. Brush my teeth fast and shave with 1 minute to go...

On a weekend I take a hot hot bath, then I take a lengthy shower then I have a nice long shave...

well first i goto into the bathroom. turn on the lights if its night. if its dayylight savings i won't turn on the lights. then i go and turn on the taps. i would use my hand to feel if its the right temperature. when its right i take all my clothes off and walk into the cubicle. i first wash my hair, face, body, legs, feet, ass and penis. after that i turn off the taps dry myself off with a towel. put my clothes on, turn the lghts off and walk out.

i usually shave in the mornings. and i brush later on so no not in the shower. is that detail enough for you beav?

I take a dump in the morning while the water is heating, I brush my teeth while I take a shower and I sit in front of my computer and read the forums while I am sitting on my towel drying myself.

BEAT THAT!

This topic is twisted

Anyway, my showering technique is pretty simple... open the water untill it's the right temperature, then put my whole self under the water... first shampoo on the (short) hair, then soap on the rest of the body (water still open and usually the shower kept between my knees LOL).
Then I simply wash the soap away and exit

When I have the needed time it's always a bath tough

You guys forgot about the most critical part, the shower head angle! It has be at the proper angle in order to maximize coverage and to achieve optimal air-water mixture

Twice a week I take a bath for about 2 hours and the rince myself.

And as for the daily shower, well almost the same as the rest.

Well, I am a shower man: I put on the shaving foam, then turn the shower on, then shave....by which time the water is nice and warm, get in wash myself. I usually stand with my back to the water stream. From the moment I get out of bed to the moment I am dry and dressed is 10mins.

I also, have 10mins on the snooze for the alarm, and it takes me 10mins to have breakfast. So it takes me exactly 30mins to get up and out for work in the morning. Oh, and it takes 10mins to walk to the station in the morning. I have a finely tuned morning routine. If I am slow, by 3mins, I will miss the train!
