I confess that I, a 13 year old girl, only shower once a week. I don’t sweat or stink as much as I should, and I probably wouldn’t shower at all if my hair didn’t get so oily. Only once has someone made a comment regarding the stench, and that day I had done some running. When I do shower, it takes me close to an hour to do so, and that time is taken up mostly by my hair. My hair is really long and really thick, which makes it hard to wash. Plus, the steam causes my asthma to flare up. Of course, I’ll shower more when I feel dirty or have a spare hour (or 6 since it takes that long to dry my hair without blow-drying) A lot of times, I feel guilty for it and think I’m some extremely lazy slob, but I know that I’m doing what I need.
