Start at the top & work your way down...
Post by: stevelyn on March 22, 2005, 08:37:43 PM
Brush teeth
Shave
Soap
Edit to add:
Unless I'm on my days off and going into the banyo (steambath) instead, then it's:
Get a roaring fire going in the barrel stove until the sides turn red.
Wait for tub of water on top of stove to get hot.
Fill water barrels with fresh cold water.
Place beer in water barrels to keep cold.
Wait for banyo temperature to reach 180 or better.
Sit in banyo BSing and drinking beer with friends and co workers splashing stove and rocks with water from time to time.
Then it's shampoo, shave and soap.

2. dry off
any questions?
Post by: roo_ster on March 23, 2005, 05:11:51 AM
My Daily Ablutions
1. Wash head, face, & neck with bar soap & rinse off
2. Lather up shavable parts of face with either straight bar soap or round soap & shaving brush
3. Lather up rest of body with bar soap
4. Shave off whiskers with disposable Gillette razor
5. Rinse off entire body
6. Towel off
If I really want a good scrubbing, I use a rough wash cloth when lathering up.
The bar soap I use depends on the time of year and frequency of showers. In the winter, I will use unscented Oil of Olay bar soap to keep from drying out and will use the same if I am showering 2+ times a day. In warmer months, I will use the cheapest non-moisturizing bar soap I can get at Costco.
I find a mirror superfluous for shaving.

Wash body, shave head, shave face, rinse off, towel off.
Use liquid soap to wash, conditioner to shave head and face, and water to rinse.

--Stand under shower in a catatonic state (haven't figured how to drink coffee in shower).
--Lather hair
--Lather, wash bod, rinse bod.
--Rinse hair
--Rub face with ScotchBright Green pad in preparation for shaving face.
--Exit shower

Surprising amount of loofah users here
Also, I never knew that one was supposed to leave conditioner in for a few minutes until my girlfriend taught me--one of the great many new things I have since been trained to do.

Then I use the commercial grade anti-bacterial handsoap to wash hair and beard.
The water is so hard here it takes something extra to feel clean.

Lots of 'em.
(Friggin' sand gets everywhere!)
Wonder how fast I can empty the water heater once I get back home?
Post by: Michigander on March 25, 2005, 05:45:50 PM
Stick fingers under faucet until water is hot.
Turn on cold water faucet.
Stick fingers under faucet and adjust cold water until warm.
Flip lever which redirects water from faucet to shower, quickly jump back to get out of the way of the water coming out of the shower because it is very cold. I usually make it, but not always.
Then I turn around, back into the water flow and tilt my head back until my hair is wet.
Then I turn around and rinse my face.
Then I wash my hair with T-Gel (dandruff) and rinse thouroughly.
Then I was my face with Coast soap and rinse.
Then I was the rest of my body, from the top down with a body wash (I ferget the brand, some kind of organic herbal stuff) and rinse.
Then I turn off the water and flip the lever that diverts the water from the shower to the faucet.
Then I open the curtain, grab a towel and proceed to dry myself from the top down starting with my hair.
That's about it.

Shampoo, soaping down, and shaving happen in random order every shower.
Hell, I'm lucky when I don't drown in the darn thing some mornings.
Some mornings when I'm really cranky, I just pound the whiskers back in and bite them off on the inside.

Schnieke's, I don't know what scares me more. That everybody actually knows the procedure to how they bathe. Or that so many people have participated in this thread...
---------
P.S. One big pet peeve I have is showering before jumping in a hottub, can't go in without rinsing off first. Oh man, I can't believe I am telling people this on a public board. Excuse me while I go rinse off now....good grief what's next boxers or briefs?

Unless you get someone to hunker down outside the bathroom to provide security. . .

Since taking a shower is totally untactical (naked, no guns), I don't see how anyone with any sense does this.
So, ummm, is that where the "fudgie" part of your name comes from?

I do lots of rinsing, then shampoo, then more rinsing. I dry off inside the shower so I do not get cold, or get water on the floor.
Post by: mfree on April 07, 2005, 04:33:18 AM
Oh, and I don't jump out of the way of the cold blast when i first turn the shower on, I just hold my hand over the nozzle. No chance of being too slow
