how do you guys shower? back facing shower head. front facing shower head. mix it up.
-
Only face front when rinsing.
Fun Fact: I like to increase the temperature slowly and incrementally throughout the duration of it until it is practically scalding. This of course is void on really hot days when I've been mowing or something.
-
Without a combo how in the eff would you rinse off appropriately?
-
Mostly forward, but I have a shower wand that allows me to get all the knooks and crannies.
-

Only face front when rinsing.
I'm assuming the poll was for any part of the shower excluding the rinse. Like, I raise my arm to rinse my armpit but I wouldn't say I'm an arms up shower taker.
-
Without a combo how in the eff would you rinse off appropriately?
a combo would be like 70/30 or 50/50 or something. the only time i face front is to get soap out of my underarms and even then i think i do it very quickly while slightly roating the whole time.
-
70-30, front majority - seems as though I am a combo
-
i take like a 30 minute slow shower/bath combo every morning and get up to speed on my bbs'n
-
it's a pretty advanced technique
-

mix it up. i like to just stand there front facing for a couple of minutes. then i alternate as i soap up and rinse.
-
Only face back to rinse basically
-
I face it. The only time I turn around is to get some shampoo and to wash off my back. I guess that's a mix, but not really. I like to put my face in that shower head.

Boy oh boy would I like to have one of these.

This one I don't get. I like a good, 70 degree angle from the wall. I don't want an overhead drip.

I don't like this either. Handheld? Na I'm good. Seems completely unnecessary.

do we have a weird things done in the shower thread :dunno:
I hope not.
i take 25 minute hybrid bath-showers in the morning and catch up on BBS'n. like quick couple minute normal shower to get clean, then i turn the water on lower and engage the stopper thing and just kinda sit down and chill and drink coffee and BBS and stuff with a constant (light) hot shower keeping things fresh and relaxing.
it's kinda weird i guess.
-
I wish I had some sort of bench in my shower. I could live in there. Pretty great time to think/clear your head.
-
man.. tobias just knows how to live.

-
i weirdly stand sideways with my right shoulder toward the shower head, turning momentarily as needed for rinsing purposes.
-
never until today did it even dawn on me that front facing shower people might exist.

i classified mine as a combo, but i front-face while lounging

If it is the morning, then I am trying to just be as efficient as possible, so I turn my back to the shower head to do my hair and then basically spin around to rinse everything off.
If it is in the evening, it's usually because I just got done with some yard work, so after I rinse my hair, I like to face the head, turn up the heat, and just steam for a few minutes before continuing.
-
Slightly off topic, but I'm one of the rare cases of people that shower before they get into the pool. You can't unread the grossness of what people have in their "gluteal folds", and it grosses me the eff out to see people get in the pool without showering. For the record, I stand with my back to the shower except to rinse in front.

That's really gross. Someone needs to sanitize that pool.

I should say so

How do you rinse your face?
-
None of your GD business.
I took it as a clinical question. Daris is being inquisitive, but appears to be out of curiousity.
-

How do you rinse your face?
i think i just let the water hit the top of my head and then let force carry it over to the front and then slowly wash down the soap. easily 95% of my shower time is spent facing away from the shower head.

90/10 back/front
This feels like the correct answer.
Facing forward longer than that seems like masochistic form of water boarding.
Gonna win 'em all!

Also, I highly recommend the showers at Sage Valley. Easily in my top 20 things that I have ever enjoyed in my life.

back or side (leaning forehead on the wall, almost asleep). when time allows i will alternate the stream hitting each side of my neck, or back of neck until the hot water runs out. i carry a lot of tension in my neck/shoulder area.
-
I tried that RD letting the water flow from your head down your face technique in the shower last night and did not like it at all.
-
It would be really difficult to pull off the non-combo.
-
RD has never taken a shower.

This was my shower in Budapest.

i throw in a handstand to hose off the undercarriage

But is your handstand facing toward the shower or away?
-
if you are really tall, and your shower head isn't, you almost have to spend a decent amount of time facing forward, to bend over and rinse out your hair. i assume it's pretty hard to try and bend over backwards.

It's pretty much the grossest thing ever if he is facing away from the shower, so I hope for his sake he is facing it.

i thought about this the other day and came to the same conclusion. i bet most of you weird front facers only do so out of necessity and kind of feel bad for all of you now.

But if you face away from the shower, then everything from the undercarriage runs right over your face and into your nose. Gross.

i dont see how that wouldnt happen when facing towards as well
you obviously never handstand in the shower to hose off your undercarriage.
-
Yeah, seems like either way you are getting undercarriage exposed water in your face. That's why you need one of those detectable hand held sprayers.
-
I honestly didn't realize people take baths. Like in your normal old shower you just plop down and "draw a bath" or whatever?

Admittedly, I don't. My grandma broke a hip doing that so I stay on my feet.

I like to take an Epsom salt bath when I have really sore muscles.

with this method, it is important have to shower gloves to go with your shower shoes so when you shower at the gym you dont get plantar warts on your hands :yuck:
-
i have taken a monstrously pak'd shower and it turned into almost a full hour bath/nap
-
I'll do the Tobias method if I've had a really stressful day. Once I get to the bath part I dude it up.

do you guys soap up your legs? i don't really go past dong level (so my knees :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:) unless my legs are specifically dirty. am i weird?

Like the only two times I haven't ever soaped my lower legs was when my abdomen was two sore to make the reach following my hernia surgery and my appendectomy.
-
I never wash my face.

I don't do baths, but if I did I'd think I'd feel like I need to shower after the bath. Opinions vary, I suppose. (Combo, BTW).

You would be fine either way.

i turn the water to max hot ever-y time except summer
also have legit fallen asleep at least 5 times in the shower and tried to today but couldn’t get past the almost asleep barrier

-
You sit in the shower?

I have fallen asleep standing up in the shower multiple times. Usually use the forehead against the wall lean method
-
this sounds dangerous. thats how people die, guys

I have enough trouble falling asleep warm in my dry bed let alone a rough ridin' shower. :flush:

if i’m tired enough, why not?

No reason not to. Perfectly fine. I'd rather you have in there sitting and falling asleep than standing. As YLA pointed out, that's dangerous! You and lib are going to become just another domestic bathing statistic. smh.

I fell asleep in the bathtub once. Woke up very confused and cold.

Well, you are just going to have to take my word on this, but our friend clams occasionally gets lit. And, he always smells good, so my math says that he too is an occasional hammered bather.

and with his height if he falls he is effed

Nope that doesn’t work either. Maybe I’ll try this sitting in the shower thing.

I have been known to fall asleep in the shower on occasion. As a kid when I had a bathtub shower I would sit down, best thing ever

I’ll put a dip in first, then go into back facing shower position, piss if necessary (no hands, advanced move) tilt head back to wet hair, shampoo for hair, junk, and undercarriage, periodically tweaking up the temp, soap the armpits, shave face, rinse, dry off and start ballin’

I do enjoy the occasional shower beer.. I'm wondering if I'm at as big of a risk as these shower sleepers :sdeek:
