It’s interesting to see how different people around the world shower, but also to learn more about the habits that different people have. The good news is that around the world, pretty much everyone does a good job of staying clean; with the majority of countries showering at least five times a week. There’s more to it than just how often you shower; you need to pay attention to the way in which you are washing.

The length of your shower can impact both the level of cleanliness that you achieve, but also the effect on your mind and body. Taking your time to shower makes you feel more relaxed and gives you the chance to really wake up. Showering too quick, however, means that you aren’t getting clean enough, but also means there is an increased chance of baldness due to the lack of stimulus on your head for hair growth. The more you know, right?
