#2
Start with armpits
then groin area
then the rest of the body
shampoo comes last - shampoo rinse and face-washing happen simultaneously (time-saver)
rinse for effect

I soap all the body parts - ears last -, rinse, use first kind of face soap and rinse, shampoo and rinse, conditioner and rinse, and then second kind of face soap.
If it's a shaving day, I do that while the conditioner's in.
I usually only brush teeth during the shower on weekends, cause during the week I eat breakfast after my shower and I prefer to brush after eating.

#1 Shampoo and neck down

but I have to linger in the hot water.. :)

1. Pre soak entire body & head
2. Shampoo hair
3. Wash Face
4. Rinse
5. Condition Hair
6. Wash Arms, Chest and "Naughty Bits".
7. Wash legs, ass and feet.
8. Wash naughty bits again, just 'cause you might get lucky later :)
9. Rinse, starting from head to toe
10. Shave (Face and Naughty Bits)

So I voted a slighlty modified #1.

used to be a #2..I am a #1 now...not really sure when and why I switched, but I prefer #1 a lot over #2 these days

I almost always bush my teeth in the shower. Also, I've finally realized that I only need to use shampoo every other or every third day. My routine is:

Rinse off
Apply shampoo
Brush teeth
Rinse shampoo
Apply Cond
Wash neck down
Rinse

I've made efforts to minimize my shower times. I live in Phx and it's a desert. People need to act like that and take fast showers. I can now wake up and be out the door in less than 15 minutes (10 if I REALLY hurry). I could shave a minute off that if I started gathering my stuff together and setting out my clothes for the day the night before.

It's come out of necessity. I just can't wake up.

Where does the masturbation come into it?

What an odd question!

I always shampoo last - but no real preference with regards to feet up vs neck down.

More or less I follow this order if I'm doing everything (I take four kinds of showers as I don't always wash my hair or shave):

Shampoo/pee (I'm glad you do it too, Shani)
Put in conditioner
Wash from neck down
Shave
Rinse conditioner
Wash conditioner residue off of neck/ears
Brush teeth
Wash face

Then I get out, dry off, slather myself in body cream, and bundle myself up in a bathrobe and lay around for 10 minutes or so. Very nice.

Oh, and I usually accomplish all of this in less than 10 minutes. I try to keep my showers as short as possible to conserve water.

#1

Wet down, stand in heat (I agree that this can take some time).
shampoo
rinse
Condition, leave in
optional tinkle time (glad I'm not the only gal doing this)
wash the bod, feet last.
rinse conditioner and the rest o' me
shave pits, legs and bikini (if necc- in the wintertime F*@% it)
wash face/rinse
stand in hot water
stand
stand
(occasionally sit)
stand...
...........
this is where the massage head may come into play
;)

1. Shampoo Hair
2. Put conditioner in Hair
3. Soap up loofa for torso wash if available, if not, soap right hand and use it to wash chest, left arm, left side and front, and then soap left hand to wash right arm and as much of back as I can reach. Stand under water so it is rinsed as it is soaped.
4. Rinse out conditioner
5. Soap legs, and rinse them all at once.

If under durress, I can go from entering bathroom in boxers to exiting dry and dressed in under 5 minutes. Usually I add in about 10 or 15 minutes of standing under the water, which, by the way, should be so hot that you have to stand still and let the base of my skull get used to it, and have it feel burny if i move from letting it hit the one spot that is used to it.

All of the above is null and void if the girlfriend is with me...then it is more of a battle of the wits to see who can control the water the longest and at the times they need it for soaping and rinsing, with bonus points for flicking icy cold water that has puddles in shampoo bottles and such on the other participant. She is usually the victor. Both of us showering takes about three times as long as one-after-the-other, and we probably get less clean.

how about 5 wash body, then soap face and head (bald so no shampoo!)
then just hang out in the shower enjoying the hot water!

#2, no teeth (do teeth and shaving after shower)

1. Lather from the neck down.
2. Face wash.
3. Shampoo.
4. Floss.
5. Brush teeth.
6. Rinse (mouth and body).

female, if that matters ...

usually shampoo first, then start shaving. sometimes the other way around.
then, i go from the top down. makes no sense to go from the bottom up? :confused:

sometimes i'll put in conditioner, trying to get in that habit, since my hair's terribly crunchy.

(ps) yes, i sometimes pee in the shower :p

Top to bottom. Except sometimes the shampoo will come at the end, because I forgot it at the beginning.

When I had the long hair there was a method to it. Shampoo, conditioner, leave the conditioner in while I do the rest (from top to bottom, natch), rinse the hair, and no repeat.

i wash my body first, then my face, next it's shampoo time and i'm done. peeing comes as soon as i step into the shower.

Get nekkid
wet everything
shampoo-rinse
conditioner-rinse
face wash-rinse
arms, torso, back-rinse
legs and feet-rinse
clean my ears

Why I clean my ears last I will never know...

I stand under the shower until I don't feel like I've died (5 minutes for every hour under 10 I've slept that night)

I quickly soap myself up, catching all the major areas of the body in a sheet of lather while spinning under the jet, and after I put the soap down I wash my hair. Then I get some soap on my fingers and clean out my waxtastic ears.

#2, though I usually wash the crotchal region first (for 5 minutes sometimes :) ), then pits, then everything else.

-Mikey

Yea I usually.

Get in
Shave
Wash neck down
brush teeth
shampoo
then wash face
and jump on out...

#1. I usually use conditioner and rinse after rinsing the shampoo, though for the gym I use a 2 in 1 product (to carry less bottles)

I am a non-nude, so I wear cutoff jeans in the shower. But I pee while the water is warming up, then Shampoo first, grab bar of soap and work my way down. then if I need to shave my face, I use the soap as lubricant and shave, then wash face.

#1, then, does anyone else end with putting in contacts?

All you folks going nuts about shampoo, are, well, nuts! ;)
Life is so much easier when you shave your head. I reckon I'd save at least 30mins a week just by having a nude-noggin.

Pure soap, top to bottom and beyond, as often as I can remember...
:)

Shampoo, rinse, wash my face, then soap and rinse my body. If I need to shave I do it at this point. I used to brush my teeth in the shower, but not anymore.

Inspired by this thread, yesterday I decided to break out and go crazy by shampooing first.

It was quite an experience.

Haha!!! Thank you!! That gave me a much-needed laugh right now, CSflim. :lol: :icare:

Wash face and everything else.. then shampoo. So, number 2

no...but I do begin with contacts....

I wash the whole body first, then hair. This also reminds me about hair... must make a new thread!
