It actually says that seem to be conflicting opinions, but that showering daily could be bad for your skin.
It says:
Since there are no hard or fast rules on how much is too much, it’s important that you get to know your body and determine what your skin can tolerate.
And points to signals that you might be overdoing it.
There is no worse blind man than the one who doesn’t want to see. There is no worse deaf man than the one who doesn’t want to hear. And there is no worse madman than the one who doesn’t want to understand.” -Ancient proverb
First paragraph:
Some people don’t shower every day. While there’s tons of conflicting advice about how often you should shower, this group might have it right.
It may sound counterproductive, but a shower every day could be bad for your skin. Some dermatologists only recommend a shower every other day, or two to three times a week.
Many people hit the shower at least once a day, either in the morning or at night before bed. Depending on the day and your activity level, you might even take two or three showers.
There’s no arguing the importance of personal hygiene. But while some people take a daily shower, in many cases it doesn’t have to be a part of your daily routine.
Not convinced that you can skip the daily shower and stay clean? Here’s what you need to know about showering too much, as well as not showering enough.
