Comments from celebrities like Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Dax Shepard, Kristin Bell, Jake Gyllenhaal, and many more about whether they bathe themselves or their kids every day have landed them in hot water... or some of us would hope, at least. Let's settle this once and for all. How often should you shower? How long should you shower? Is bathing necessary? How frequently. There is an answer! #shorts

@tonezou3918 3 года назад

Hey Dr. Mike! So if I've been over-showering for decades (lack of knowledge) and now my hair is very greasy every day and I threw many expensive pillows for that reason... should I keep washing my hair every single day so that I don't throw my pillows or I can reverse this condition somehow? Also, warm water actually relieves my dry eyes a lot, not a fan of cold water, sadly.

Showering when you have POTS is hard. Dr Mike, I would really appreciate it if you talked about POTS (Postural Orthosatic Tachycardia Syndrome) as many people, including medical professionals don't know about it. And how the symptoms go further than just dizziness, fatigue, and fainting and elevated heart rate. Issues like digestive issues, tremors, etc.

@mikusheadphones Месяц назад

Get a shower chair! Or just put a folding chair in there. There is no reason to feel embarrassed about needing accommodations! I use a shower chair because of my POTS and other health conditions bc it's so difficult and I've landed in an ambulance a dozen times from passing out and hitting my head I'm the shower (yay POTS). ALSO keep those hospital shower wipes and no rinse shampoo around for days that are too hard for bathing! Accessibility!

Showering is a temporary oil-stripping solution. Obviously your body thinks it needs to produce so much oil, and when you strip it of that oil, then it even goes into a hyper-production mode. Maybe look into how you could get your body to *think* it doesn't need to oil you up. I'm no expert so take that as you will.

Fun fact: when my sister was a baby, my parents washed her all the time (once every day). One day, They noticed she was getting red, dry, cracked skin. They panicked and took her to the doctor immediately. Turns out, they had been washing her too much. Her skin was being washed and therefore was being stripped of oils, which made her skin dry and cracked, which caused irritation and redness. Some people aren’t meant to shower daily. In fact it can really hurt your skin to do so. I have sensitive skin, and I opt for short showers with no soap or anything most nights, but wash with soap a couple times a week. My skin feels way better than when I washed with soap and water every day.

@margauxf4321 2 года назад

Oh no! Poor baby. Babies and small children are not supposed to bathe frequently because their skin does not produce protective oils yet, and for immunity. Frequently bathing is painful, and can literally make them sick if exposed to a pathogen while their barrier is compromised.

@magdalenawiszniewska2825 2 года назад

Nope. As a kid dad yelled there must be enough water for everyone plus it costs money. Also out of hot shower i felt so cold. And i learnt a lot of neutodiversed people we are scared to get too wet. Now i just go bath if i have time for long washing and i feel like hot water. Sometimes i dont. If you live in cold climate and hair is dry like mine you dont need to wash out much sweat. Hot days of course are different - quick showers, bit cold, even three times a day. It takes a few minutes to do all you need, without horrible getting wet too much - everything is washed. Hair in my case takes longer if i need to wash it. Cold water closes the hair so its usually semi warm shower and hair washing ends with cold. But when i feel sick, need like proper warming up or want to feel im super clean - i make a bath and in time i make it pretty hot tho i need to be able to adjust. Always had energy, was eating everything and with good blood circulation im usually too warm everywhere. So don't want to make it worse with hot shower

If I'm going to the gym, or it's the dead of summer and 35C, well, that changes things and I generally need to shower daily or at least once every other day or so. Likewise, I don't get people that insist you have to shampoo every single day. Shampoo dries my hair out and makes it frizzy, and most days just using water to clean it is way more than enough to get any grease out. Now brushing your teeth, THAT should definitely be done every day, ideally a couple times a day.

wouldn't shampooing make dry hair worse? as it strips oils from the hair

@demikus 3 года назад

@@plumtucker9514 it can, but if you are shampooing properly and just trying to get your scalp/roots, but not the full length of your hair then it doesn't dry your hair out as much. Also @maddie if you like hot showers, use a shower cap to protect your hair from the hot water, then transition(take it slow unless you want the shock of cold water after hot lol) to cooler/lukewarm water before you wash/condition your hair, this may help with how dry your hair ends up.

i'd also recommend massaging your hair once a week with a lot of coconut oil after you shampoo your hair and then the next day dilute some shampoo with water in a mug or something and just run it through your hair to get rid of the excess oil. don't shampoo it like you're washing your hair to get it clean. a few big drops of shampoo in ~8 ounces/250 ml of water works fine if you have long hair when rinsing the oil out. just by doing this i have days when my hair is silky smooth. coconut oil works best because it's lighter than most oils

@m0t0b33 3 года назад

I feel like some people associate showering with washing your hair too as a must, when it's really not... one can shower without washing the hair as well, I promise. Also, for dry hair, leave in conditioner is your bff... because the kind you rinse off only works slightly and sometimes can cause buildup. Also, you might wanna give your scalp and hair an oil "mask" before shampooing, so that it regenerates a bit and prevent dandruff.

@lovelysakurapetalsyt 2 года назад

Thank you for saying this! My dad tells me I have to shower every day because after a few days my hair gets oily (obviously normal), but other days my hair is super full and fluffy! I take long hot showers personally because it's some of the only down time I have that's not filled with anxiety, and the hot water mixed with the shampoo I have (courtesy of my hair stylist) is for dry hair, so it makes my hair extra fluffy! And besides, my skin is constantly cold for some reason, so having hot showers is the only way I'm not super cold going out of the shower!

A hot shower helps a bit but improving your blood circulation is better. Exercising, walking, any kind of physical activity, being outside and getting some vitamin D will make your body and mind feel totally different.

@blackwing97 2 года назад

usually washing hair every single day is overkill and causes damage. but like op said, it depends. also you might want to get the coldness checked out, it could have a simple fix, or it could be a more serious medical problem. I used to be cold all the time, and it ended up being hypothyroidism.

@sepiasmith5065 Год назад

as others have said, it takes a solid 2-3 minutes for my hair to actually get wet and stay wet so i will continue to take my stupidly long showers. i don't pay for water! although i can say I've been taking cooler showers. I'll have it up high initially, get my hair wet, and then turn it down. when I'm ready to get out, i gradually turn it colder and colder and it feels so refreshing. plus, it helps to lessen the shock when i open the shower curtain haha

If you don't wash your genitals after about a day, they will almost certainly be at least a bit smelly. And most people will have smelly underarms and feet if they don't wash them every day (unless they use an antiperspirant and not just a deodorant). It is really not necessary for a lot of/most people to wash their hair every day, though. Most people (at least women) in Europe don't wash their hair every day, usually they wash it every 3 (or even more!) days (for many that's not enough, though, and thus you can often see people with greasy hair in the part of Europe I live in). I need to wash my hair at least every other day.

@mikayladouglas2503 2 года назад

@@LauraMarin2709 not odd at all! Pork lard has similar fat qualities to human fat, so the body absorbs it easily. It's why a lot of historical skin care was made with it (aside from it being in ready supply when you've harvested the pig in the first place). Pork lard, tallow, and lanolin are some of the best natural products for the skin (unless you're allergic, obviously) because of how close in natural composition they are to human fat chains. Some of the best feeling and highly effectively natural (and diy) skin care is made with them. If you don't need the products to be vegan, they're a great investment to include and usually cheap as to buy because most people don't tend to buy up the lard in the shops Sincerely, a hobby historian that did 3rd year tertiary biology so knows the fun sides of both angles

It does more harm than good to your skin if you don’t need it, and the effects are exacerbated by weather like in winter when your skin is already dealing with a lot.
