Taking a shower every day is a very modern practice. There's nothing gross about our bodies after a day or two, and the hot water of a shower can really dry out your skin by washing away the naturally occurring oils that keep it soft. Skipping a shower every now and then certainly won't hurt you.

A shower a day is fine... not harmful. Sometimes they will tell you to only wash your hair every other day to keep some natural oils in it... it is healthier for your hair. When you shower you get rid of microorganisms that live on your body... they are good and help (you will not survive with out them). So if you have a germ phobia and are showering several times a day it can be harmful... lowers your immune system.

Queen Victoria said she would take 3 baths in her life - they didn't have showers back then - on the day she was born, on her wedding day and on the day she died. Some people are that way. Now that was gross.

age has a lot to do with it. As we age, our skin produces fewer and fewer natural oils, showering daily accelerates that loss and the result is very dry itchy and irritated skin.
It is recommended that once you are 35, you should cut showers to every other day, and at 45 to every third day. The more fragile and dry your skin is, the less you should shower or bathe.

By all means, take a bath every day. You spend a good portion of your day in the company of others (students or coworkers) and odors they emit do stick to you, so a daily bath washes that away. Those who work in a restuarant also need to bathe every day....think of the odors from a kitchen on their clothes...the clothes do no block the odors from penetrating the skin.

Why would it be bad to take a shower daily? Personal hygiene is a huge factor these days and believe me- no one wants to be sitting on a crowded sub way next to misses smelly crotch.... Just ignore your friend and continue to shower daily.... and let her believe what she wants.... eventually she will smell the truth...

It is NOT bad to shower everyday. However, some experts believe that it is unhealthy for your hair to wash daily since you will wash away your natural oils. Personally, I shower daily and wash and condition my hair every other day.
