Proper Hygiene: Smart Bath Tips

Spending time under the shower, you should look for ways to save time and efforts so that you can look better in less time.

Softer skin and better hair is our aim with this post. Read it carefully and let us know your views in the comments section below.

Soap

If you think that soap is one of the most important items one should use while bathing, then you are wrong. Soap does not help you when you shower. Instead, it strips your skin of essential oils, making it dry, itchy and tight. So, skip soaps.

An alternative to soap is a soap-free body wash. Most of the soap-free body washes help in cleansing your body without making it dry.

If you are planning to buy it, buy it online to get an exclusive deal on the same. Also, you can use coupons to get an additional discount on these items. Coupons are available for popular stores like Overstock and Sears.

Hot water

Do you think that hot water is good for you? Well, it may be shocking, but hot water is one that adds to the dryness by exacerbating the effect. So, one should avoid it.

However, if you are used to it and do not want to part away from the feeling in a moment, you should go slowly. Start reducing the proportion of hot water and get used to cold water.

Shampoo

Are you focusing on the roots, scalp and the nape of the neck? Or you love putting the bulk on your hair’s general length? Shampoo is important but if you are putting it all on the general length, you are basically wasting it all. So, avoid it and focus on the roots, scalp and the nape of the neck because oils and dirt are usually collected at these spots.

Again, you should know the quantity of shampoo that you put on your general length, roots, and scalp. Using too much of shampoo is bad and should be avoided.

Shave

It is often seen that people shave before shower. This is not really bad, but if you are trying to get a close shave, it is better to shave at the end of your shower. Doing so, you will notice that the hair has softened, and removal of the same is easy.

Note: It is important to open up your pores. For this, shower in warm water because it helps in swelling your follicles. Here, we insist using warm water, not hot water.

Shower session

We love having long, peaceful bathing session, and we don’t want anyone to disturb us, right? But if I tell you that you should keep your shower session short, maybe ten minutes on the higher side, would you do it?

Whatever may be your decision, it is important to know that it is not good to have a long shower session because it increases the odds of stripping your skin of essential oils. This can even result in itchy patches of skin.
