Very OT: Showering
years ago i found it strange that some people stand up to wipe after #2 while others sit down and wipe and the numbers were nearly even on the stance
but my new question to mgobloggers are about showering. i wash my body first and then shampoo, thinking my way is 100% right and normal i sit and wonder why my fiance shampoos first.... whats the norm?
so I haven't rinsed my body, then get shampoo running down to re-rinse.
I would think that this is the most obvious way to do it. I can't think of a reason to do it the other way. You don't want all of that dirt on your head ruining what you already cleaned.
Just how dirty does your hair get?
you're letting the dirt and soiled materials from your hair now contaminate your already clean body. I doubt its anything serious and you may never notice, but what if you did? Generally I shampoo first then wash up.
Doesn't soap residue stick in your hair then?
how do you mean?
If you wash your hair first (w/ shampoo I hope), then wash your face/neck etc.. (w/ soap I hope), it seems the soap wouldn't rinse completely from your hair.
Holy shit is this ever off-topic, I had to preview to realize. Wow. Oh well, my comment stands.
doesn't that make further sense to then shampoo first? More time to rinse out that shampoo/soap residue?
That is incorrect. Once you have suspended the dirt and particles in the shampoo, the surface tension will keep them suspended until it dries, so they don't redeposit.
For understanding surface tension.
why do you say +1, but not give him a +1?
shit, good call. And one for you.
start at the top and work down
What are you some kind of freak or something?
I keed, I keed
trending that im 100% wrong
i blame my mother
I live behind a Meijer, so I use their restroom to clean up. A splash to the face and the pits and I'm good to go searching for more meth.
(fingers crossed)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
YOU CAN'T SEE ME LIKE THIS
That makes me think of the episode of the simpsons where Marge sees her dad as a flight attendent. Whether or not that's what you're referencing, +1.
Holy Crap that's the best thing I've seen all day!
I think you are serious.
I was waiting on "that guy" who says "I don't shower" so I could down vote him. This was just too perfect though.
This is creepy.
I only wash my naughty bits.
bird bath FTW
I believe the scientific term is "no-no zone"
but as a sufferer of alopecia universalis I wash my body first and then send my hair, eyebrows and pubes back to the shop for a shampoo.
In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.
My actual routine at school was actually pretty similar.
First, I would begin by cleansing my body with Dove moisturizing body wash for sensitive skin, starting from the neck and working my way down. Then I use a Biore micro beaded facial wash with Salicylic acid on the face. Then I apple TRESemme Deep Cleansing shampoo and follow that with complimentary TRESemme Conditioner. At this point my skin is moist enough so that I can use a pumice stone to soften my calluses. When I'm finished with the shower, I apply a mixture of Johnson's concentrated Baby oil enhanced with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E with Lubriderm Lotion for sensitive skin and apply it liberally across my body.
Huey Lewis and the News?
Just... Heuy's too black sounding for me.
Yes; I believe they hit their peak with Sports.
edit. nm. I get it.
That I believe you're serious, or that you wrote it at all. You had better really be a chic.
Edit: n/m I see what you did there.
oh snap well played sir. you beat me to the Bateman, I was just about to utilize that beautiful movie.
but I find that hilarious. I'm assuming you are a dude, but I'm hoping you aren't. I have to assume that you are serious based on the ammount of detail you went into, but I can't be sure.
You're my new Jesus.
There is an idea of a Technoviking; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable...I simply am not there.
a/s/l?
Shampoo first, always. That way, my hair has had more time to dry out and requires less effort to towel-dry. That gives me more time to towel-whip everybody else in the shower.
It seems we have all unwittingly entered the "which mgoblogger can start the most off topic post" based on this examination of shower strategy and the post about Obama asking moms to return to school.
There's been worse.
I'm more perplexed by who wipes standing up after a taking a dookie. That doesn't make any sense. Don't you want to be attacking the largest surface area possible? That would mean unclenched butt-cheeks.
This is probably a new MGoLowPointOfTheOffseason.
There is an in-between where you raise your ass from the toilet seat while still bending over a bit. This allows you free access to the area while still avoiding clenched buttcheeks. I don't think anyone stands up straight while whiping. I prefer this half-standing method because if I remain seated, I feel like I'm dipping my hand into the toilet to wipe myself.
this is very OT.
Just to help you out, I wash my head before I was my boys (speaking in Seinfeldese).
Shampoo first! And I'll tell you why. Years ago in English 125 during my frosh year, we read a sample essay by a previous student. The essay topic was something like, "what is a seemingly irrational habit of yours, and why do you do it?" So this chick wrote this essay about how she puts a lot of care into washing her hair (rhymin'!). One thing I still remember is that she said you should shampoo first because all of the dirt and bacteria and shit that gets washed out of your hair goes all over your body. If you soap first, then your efforts will be in vain when the crap that you wash out of your hair contaminates your body.
Then again, the girl who wrote that essay was a coke addict.
I lol'd
FACT: coke is sterile.
(not really).
but i did look at the list of you who did respond (and respond quickly i might add) - out of curiosity. damn we must be f'ing bored. please start this season. even magnus responded to this crap.
I'm bald so I guess this blows your classmate's theory all to hell.
Your domus chromalis still gets shit stuck to it during the day. Washing it first still applies to you.
