I’m the opposite, my hair looks better after it had time to settle overnight. I blow-dry my hair after I shower but it doesn’t look great immediately after.

Shower at night for yourself, shower in the morning for other people.

There seems to be a misconception that showering at night, getting into a clean bed and waking means you're still clean... The truth is the majority of odours and filth come from you. Sweat, dead skin, other stuff...

These posts are always positioned as a binary, even when you can do both, and there's some nuance to it all.

[–] adam_y@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago (14 children)

Like, do you brush your teeth in the morning or at night?

But you haven't eaten anything in the night, right?

That's the logic on display here.

I'm a golden showerer. Rated 5/5

Pretty Prince Andrew behaviour ngl

Most of us sweat, I think if you plan to interact with another person, it's kinda basic decorum to not start your day with 10h of sweat on you already.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 83 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The pic could also be titled "evening showerers waking up in the morning".

But really, it depends on your job. If you work outside all day and get sweaty and dirty, you probably want to shower when you get home. If you show up at that job 12+ hours since your last shower with a bit of sweat etc. it doesn't really matter.

OTOH, if you work in an office with closed windows and lots of meetings, you probably want to be (and want others to be) as clean as possible when they show up in the morning. When you go home from that job at night, you're probably not particularly dirty and not in bad need of a shower. So, unless you want to shower twice a day, you might as well wait for the morning.

[–] BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 17 points 6 days ago (2 children)

This was my exact thought too. Sometimes I think I’m the only person on Lemmy that doesn’t have an office job. If I did morning showers, I’d supposed to be spending my evening and night drenched in sweat and who knows what else from work? Doesn’t sound very pleasant.

As long as people aren't keeping you at arms length, telling you that you stink, and your skin and hair is healthy, people should shower as they see fit.

When i wake up, if i had a shower tthr night before, my hair is all rough and greasy and i need to shower again in the morning. So its more efficient to just shower in the morning. Saves water and electricity too.

[–] Wren@lemmy.today 11 points 5 days ago (2 children)

You might need to wash your pillow.

As someone who inherited my German ancestors greasy ass hair, let me tell you it doesn't help. I'll take it over the dry but relatively brittle hair of my Scottish and Irish ancestors, still got the rusty red color and wavyness from em though piss easy to maintain.

I shower in the morning before bed cuz I'm a 3rd shifter.

[–] Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.works 31 points 6 days ago (3 children)

I've been a night showerer and a morning showerer throughout different periods of my life. These days I'm actually closer to a lunch showerer - which I realize isn't practical for most, but it's the superior method if one showers only once a day.

[–] drdalek@lemmy.dbzer0.com 29 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (4 children)

I work from home and cannot agree more. Mid day shower kicks ass. Just wash your sheets yall

ITT lots of sweaty sleepers spending 10 hours sleeping in a puddle of sweat and grease. I'd need a morning shower too if I was like that.

Normal people that are not covered in 10 hours of sweat when they wake up probably don't need a morning shower and trying to say that sleeping (without the copious amounts of sweat of you veritable faucets)is the same as spending 16+ hours moving and working and being around other people is really delusional. And what adult is getting 10+ hours of sleep on the regular? Y'all either live in some major privilege or don't have hobbies.

I shower before I go to bed. This is the only right answer. I can’t imagine going to bed with smelly feet and armpits, yuck

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Weekly? Sure. But morning or night?

I’m not that dirty

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 16 points 6 days ago (10 children)

If you're doing anything in your bed other than sleeping, you may need to shower and change your sheets more often.

And if you shower and change your sheets more often, you might increase the chances you'll be doing more in your bed than sleeping.

I will also suggest having a lidded trashcan in the bathroom, and a hand shower.

I cannot stand going to bed dirty. I always shower before bed. And if my day went poorly, and sometimes it did, fresh clothes and multiple showers during the day. But only once did I ever burn a set of clothes.

You guys shower?

shower? but you barely know er!!!

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

I shower 2-3 times a week in the middle(-ish) of the day.

Showers make me sleepy so can’t do early mornings. I have very long, straight, and thick hair that takes hours to air dry, and refuse to use blow dryers, so night is right out else I end up with a really shit bed-head curl situation..

The sweet spot is mid-morning or around lunch, when I get sleepy anyway, given an hour to half-dry, then put up in a french clip bun, so when I take it down for the evening, it has a nice open curl. I never use the pretty, but it makes me feel very pretty at night.
