I know this is a weird question, but I just found out that I am going to Virginia Beach tomorrow (Friday), and will get back Sunday. We will be staying in a little cabin, and the shower is public, and these really gross me out. If I take a shower Friday morning before we leave, and then do not take one during the trip, is that too long to go without one? I just hate the idea of taking a shower in that public shower thing!
What do you think?

oh i love virginia beach, its wonderful.
i think you should be fine, just take a shower before you go
make sure you bring deoderant and maybe some wet wipes to clean up anything that could happen, (example if scrape your knee, you could clean up the blood)
but anyway it doesnt seem like too long to go without a shower, the first sign of "being dirty" is hair, so if the cabin has running water but no shower you can wash your hair in the sink if needed, or bring some powder, sprinkle on the roots comb through and your good.
good luck and have lots of fun!=]

Wash as much as you can at that public shower sticking to the body parts that usually smell. So you can avoid losing face if you don't take a shower for 3 days.
You have to choose: Either you use the public cambine you hate or you carry a bit more dirt than the usual

Wear shower shoes just in case it's a funky-questionably clean shower. It's going to be hot and you are going to perspire. I'd say take a shower as often as you need to. Enjoy your trip to Virginia Beach. It's really nice!

I couldn't go without a shower. Well, I could, but I wouldn't. I would just suck it up and shower in public. How "public" can it really be? I'm sure no one can see you. And if it's one of the showers on the beach, just rinse off with your swim suit still on. At least wash the salt off of your body. I think it would be really hard to sleep being all clammy feeling after swimming in saltwater and not washing off afterwards.

Take some baby wipes with you and of course your other hygiene products (powder, deodorant). Also a pair of flip- flops so that you can at least rinse the sand off in the public shower. However the babywipes will do the trick. Enjoy your weekend.

A week is too long. If you are very active so that you sweat a lot, even 2 or 3 days might be too long. I wouldn't worry about a week-end, though. You can sort of wash up, including your underarms and other potentially smelly places, use deodorant and maybe cologne, you'll be OK.

Technically you could go the rest of your life without taking a shower! Bet you'd be lonely though.
I think I would wear my suit and wash my hair at least-then you can get the intimate parts with a sponge bath in private.

You are just missing Saturday but if it's warm out, you will start getting ripe LOL
I would use the shower and wear flip flops.

approximately 2 weeks for the period of iciness ruin, could not pass outdoors, so what's the ingredient of bathing? i ususally take them the different or so. i don't on saturdays, i don't do something. 2-3 days isn't undesirable, as long as you do not stink you be attentive to? i went a week previously i began smelling.. it extremely is noted as lotion and deodarant!
