What are you possibly driving through that you need to have them washed each day? That seems like a HUGE waste of time (and resources like water). I could have free car washes for life at the end of my driveway and I'm still probably not doing it more than once/week.

rockaction 9,964 Report post Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Wash my feet every time I shower. I'll skip showers every so often. Wash my hair every time I shower. Wash my car maybe once a month or two. Floss twice a day, but I have a bridge, so I'll miss the threader often. It's gross. Don't ever get punched in the mouth while getting mugged.

I rinse my hair every day, but only wash it every 3rd or 4th day.

trogg78 754 Report post Posted July 12, 2018 I wash my feet and floss daily. i rarely wash my cars. Maybe 4 times a year. i wash my hair once a week. I had issues with dry flaky scalp and it appears to have been caused by washing it too much.. Now it’s all cleared up and I’m growing my hair long. I will still rinse it with water and use conditioner in between shampoos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nirad3 1,287 Report post Posted July 12, 2018 Feet - I'd say every other day. Sometimes I forget in the shower. If it's the weekend and I've been wearing sandals, definitely. Hair - every time I shower, so 5-6 times a week. If I'm just bumming around the house on the weekend, I may not shower. I don't stink. Floss - hardly ever. Car - probably once every 6-8 weeks.... black car so the thing looks like crap for a few weeks but it's a beater. If/when I get a new ride I'll probably wash that sucker every week.

Unless you’re working outside in sandals, I don’t get the need to scrub your feet. The soapy runoff works just fine for me. Hair - every other day. It’s not good to shampoo every single day. Car - couple times a year I suppose. It’s just not that important to me. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a Sonicare toothbrush and my dentist said that while he still recommended flossing, that the toothbrush's action was as effective as flossing. Maybe our resident tooth care provider can chime in here. For the record my dental health is pretty darn good cavity wise. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is something I hadn’t really paid attention too - I rarely go out of my way to clean my feet and they seem tip top condition. Guess I’m lucky. I walk around the house in sandals and wear clean socks everyday. Edited July 12, 2018 by The General 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
