I'd have to say it's different for everyone. It also depends on who you're trying to impress.
For a socialy active person, maybe someone trying to get some, once a day is almost required.
On the other hand, if you're just chillin, not much physical activity, so on, it wouldn't be unhealthy to go a few days.
I've been hiking in the woods with just one other guy and not showered for upwards of a week. We smelled awful, my hair was greasy and itchy, and my skin was starting to break out. But it's not like we had to impress anyone, and we weren't unhealthy from not bathing.
So I guess my answer is, bathing yourself is for others. How much do you care what others think of you?

It depends on what you are doing within those days of not bathing. If you are just sitting at home not doing anything all day, then you can go about 4-5 days without bathing. But if you are working everyday and gettin really sweaty than you will probably last for about 1-2 days. Hope this was enough info for you.

There is no maximum days for not bathing
sweat and odor builds up in a 24 hr period even when you sleep
you can get skin infection and irritations you feel sticky and sweaty all over eventually a person will start stinkin-bad

Well, my hair and skin are really dry so I can't take as regular a shower. I take two every week. Maybe three. If I take more then I get really itchy skin! (as for the maximum when I went camping I went without for two weeks. I was ten. I mean, how can you shower in the middle of the woods?)

Believe it or not bathing everyday is not good. Americans bath too much and we leave ourselves open to disease.
Having said that I bath every day.......I think the maximum is every other day....while washing the strategic places every day.

The longest you should go without bathing should be 2 days.

Are we trying to set a record? Or are you asking how often you should bathe. Myself, I wouldn't want to through a day without a shower. If absolutely necessary, one day without would be max for me.
