 Men will probably never understand the struggle of an, “everything shower”….
😅 
 What's that? Real shower or euphemism? 
 Real shower, but unlike any experience you’re thinking of 
 I only know the struggles of cold shower, but I'm open minded 
 I've looked up on yt, I can easily imagine a version for men, haha. Cheers 
 Nooooo you figured it out 🤫🤫🤫 
 An everything shower involves shampooing and conditioning your hair, shaving most of your damn body, exfoliating every bit, washing your body and face. You either use in-shower lotion or put lotion on basically every inch after you shower. At this point you then need a rest to recover from the workout that is an everything shower and allow all the lotion you’ve just applied time to soak in, before you can begin the task that is styling your hair. If you went to all the trouble of an everything shower, there’s probably an event that requires your nails and makeup be done as well. 
 Takes like 2 hours at least. If you’re drying your hair, just cancel all your plans 
 Literally HOURS 
 But thank you, women. It is truly appreciated. Truly. 
 TIL 🤔🤣 
 Straight gnar gnar 🤦‍♀️ 
 I had to look up that word too lol. Am I that old? 🤣 
 Nooo you just have a nicer way of speaking 😂😂😂 
 This is why women pay for waxes, body scrubs, etc. The ghost of everything showers haunts us. Excuse me an everything shower is calling. I’ll probably also just scrub the tub and tile while I’m in there. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 
 I dread nothing more 
 Pray for me. I have to go out tonight after this. 
 I’ve been procrastinating for like 4 hours. I empathize and will be praying  for our strength to carry on through 💪 
 Or just take a shower. No man will notice the difference.

(Stepping on thin ice with such comments) 
 Bahaha no that’s ok. It’s always an option, but we know when it’s absolutely time. 
 Being well groomed is like a woman’s armor in the world. Men will definitely notice if you let things slide for too long. Also the longer you let like shaving or exfoliating slide the longer it will take the next time you do it. Regular maintenance keeps it easier. Even guys who like a low maintenance lady sometimes don’t realize the high-maintenance to be low-maintenance reality. 
 😂 
 I routinely thank God I am not a woman. 
 Woah. 
 I left out the pre-shower prep. 
 Ouf 
 Is that where you wash everything instead of just pits and bits? 🤔😂 
 And exfoliate, shave, wash hair, style hair….goes on and on 
 Woah, is this like a 3 hour thing? 
 And women will never understand the everything shampoo 

It’s for:
- Head
- Shoulders 
- Genitals
- Dishes
- Dogs
- Cars
… 
 I love a bar of basic soap too! Simple & efficient. Kills 99.9% of bacteria 
 Dries your damn skin out 
 Not that much, but some skin may be more sensitive. 
 I'm a no soap or shampoo kind of guy. I just use a cheap abrasive rag to remove dead skin. This dead skin holds onto the sweat and stink. I no longer have problems with dry skin 
 😔 
 I’ve added enough routines to my shower that I’m getting close 😬
