    youd be surprised how much better cold showers feel than hot showers
    first week or so is pretty painful but once you get used to the idea that hot water wont be coming out of it, there's no shock and it's just blissfull cool water refreshing you and waking you right up

    plus with cold showers when you get out of the shower the air temperature is actually warmer than the water so I can walk around the place bollock naked and not even be slightly cold.

    Yeah, just ignore the fact that you're not nearly as clean as from a hot shower!

    Lol!! +1 to that! :P
    Although I used to date a guy who was a real environmentist and refused to partake in shower hanky panky because he said it wasted water :(
    He didn't long last after that, so he didn't...

    Used to be about 5 minutes max.... Now that I've long hair, it's about 15 minutes. As quickly as I can manage while getting myself properly clean. Not a massive fan of showers, they bore me. Though I have had the 40 minute 'thinking about the meaning of life' showers a few times :pac:

    I've cut my shower time down to about 3-5 mins recently, ever since I noticed just how much electricity the shower uses once it on! :eek:

    Seriously, look at the little wheel on the meter spinning around like a mad thing once an electric shower is in use, besides 3-5 minutes is enough time unless you are at yourself in there.

    This.

    I live with other tenants and it's unfair to others if somebody decides to have a shower from 20 minutes plus.

    I do have 2 showers a day tho.

    Usually between 5 and 10 minutes. Have a rinse, shower gel goes on, rinse off and then hair.

    The women probably took even longer before the advent of fancy powershower sprayheads, I've seen some dubious looking ones about, like those suspiciously smooth countoured deodorant cans/bottles, you never see mens ones like that.

    Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller even has a patent out for a female spa device, the Jill-Jet.

    Some college campus had to put up signs to stop **** in showers as the lads jizz was clogging the drains.

    A minute if I don't shampoo the hair, close to 2 if I do (I'm male). It's unnecessary to spend more than two minutes in the shower.

    What I started doing lately is a submarine shower.
    Get in, get wet.
    Turn the shower off, scrub myself, wash my hair.
    Turn shower back on and rinse off.
    It's very effective for keeping it short, in and get the job done.
    Apart from saving water, I find i save shower gel and shampoo and it doesn't go down the drain straight away.

    I shower twice a day most days, each ranging from 3 to around 8 minutes I guess depending on if I'm conditioning my hair or having a quick shave of the legs..

    10 minutes tops. I find the whole thing very boring and like to get done as quickly as possible. Except if BF is in there with me... ;) You need a "For How Long Do You Sex Shower?" pole poll. :P

    Tried a 3 minute shower in oz with a timer. Started on my hair and barely had it rinsed before the timer went off.

    Would normally take me just under 15 but I don't rush unless I'm in a hurry for some reason.

    Normally around 10 minutes but if I'm going to be shaving or waxing as well then I'll need another 5 to 10 minutes added on.

    Agreed. You need at least 40 minutes minimum for a decent sex shower.

    5 Minutes?
    Depends, I be told about the motor thing too so try to limit to 5 mins if I can often be 10, 15 or 20 mins that include shower and hair. Though for a quick shower 2-5 mins otherwise up to 10 if I am washing the hair, take an average of 5 mins to wash the hair and 5 mins for shower so could be up to 10 mins at least.

    I enjoy the shower too much sometimes but if rushing I be as quick as possible if going somewhere but if tired and early in the day I be slow enough!

    When my hair is short- 2 minutes, hair long- 4 minutes. I'm usually late to go somewhere in the morning so it's always a mad rush.

    I never understood why people spend so long in the shower :/

    I usually take between 2 and 4 minutes. And my hair is long and I manage to shampoo and condition it in that time!

    Out of curiosity, I shower every second day but don't dare to tell people because I think that most people shower every day but maybe some are too afraid to admit that they don't, like me. So, let's have it, how often do you shower? I wonder when people started showering every day, no one in my immediate family showers every day and when I was a teenager none of my friends did either (now I'm early twenties) so I'm just wondering when it became the norm.
