    ITT lots of sweaty sleepers spending 10 hours sleeping in a puddle of sweat and grease. I’d need a morning shower too if I was like that.

    Normal people that are not covered in 10 hours of sweat when they wake up probably don’t need a morning shower and trying to say that sleeping (without the copious amounts of sweat of you veritable faucets)is the same as spending 16+ hours moving and working and being around other people is really delusional. And what adult is getting 10+ hours of sleep on the regular? Y’all either live in some major privilege or don’t have hobbies.

      I’m the opposite, my hair looks better after it had time to settle overnight. I blow-dry my hair after I shower but it doesn’t look great immediately after.

      Still seems better than bringing street grime into your bedsheets daily?

        What you dont buy multiple sheets for your bed on top of all the attire you need for your body and social customs?

        I don’t wear my street clothes to bed.

        Besides, I sweat like a pig in my sleep for some reason, so there’s no point in bathing first.

            I live in the United States, so a doctors appointment is like $600,000. i’m not buying my doctor a yacht just so I can get an answer to a simple question.

            I will just deal with sweaty sheets

                No need to feel sad. I wake up at 3 or 4 AM anyway. I’m one of those weirdos who sleeps in two distinct periods. 11-3, 3:30-8

                I just smoke a bowl, check Lemmy, change my clothes, put down a towel, and go back to sleep.

                After 20 years or so it’s become a routine

      If/when I shower at night, I just need to soak my hair in the shower, scruff it a bit, then towel dry. Then I can comb it out and style it as if I just took a fresh shower.

      I’m a guy though, with relatively short hair. If I had long hair like this photo, it’d probably be a rat’s nest in the morning and need a full shower to fix.

    Most of us sweat, I think if you plan to interact with another person, it’s kinda basic decorum to not start your day with 10h of sweat on you already.

      Lots of people in this thread not realizing that night sweats are a symptom of poor health…

          Well, the majority of people on the planet don’t live in that kind of environment.

          So since every single person varies, some people don’t really get too sweaty or have noticeable BO. The majority of the smells associated with BO are produced by bacteria that live on our bodies.

          That said some people are putrid after a day or two. The problem of nose blindness comes into play here too.

              Por que no los dos?

              I know much of Europe is in denial about air conditioning being great. But seriously…why suffer? Even funnier is how many commercial buildings have it, or how it’s used in cars or other transport, but for some reason home is off limits.

              If you aren’t European, my apologies for the mistaken assumption. That’s just the only group I ever see hating on air conditioning like it makes them better than other people. Or that their suffering suggests anything about their moral character. If it’s not possible for you, then I’m sorry to hear that, and that really sucks.

      The pic could also be titled “evening showerers waking up in the morning”.

      But really, it depends on your job. If you work outside all day and get sweaty and dirty, you probably want to shower when you get home. If you show up at that job 12+ hours since your last shower with a bit of sweat etc. it doesn’t really matter.

      OTOH, if you work in an office with closed windows and lots of meetings, you probably want to be (and want others to be) as clean as possible when they show up in the morning. When you go home from that job at night, you’re probably not particularly dirty and not in bad need of a shower. So, unless you want to shower twice a day, you might as well wait for the morning.

        This was my exact thought too. Sometimes I think I’m the only person on Lemmy that doesn’t have an office job. If I did morning showers, I’d supposed to be spending my evening and night drenched in sweat and who knows what else from work? Doesn’t sound very pleasant.

            I run the kitchen section of a grocery store so I get what you mean. I come home covered in grease every day and usually other food stuff too. A couple days ago I had a full case of soup explode on me, that was fun to try and clean. Thankfully it was refrigerated, not hot, so I didn’t get burned, but still, had to do the last couple hours of my day in very dirty clothes and the floor wasn’t super easy to clean either.

    If you’re doing anything in your bed other than sleeping, you may need to shower and change your sheets more often.

    And if you shower and change your sheets more often, you might increase the chances you’ll be doing more in your bed than sleeping.

    I will also suggest having a lidded trashcan in the bathroom, and a hand shower.

    I shower 2-3 times a week in the middle(-ish) of the day.

    Showers make me sleepy so can’t do early mornings. I have very long, straight, and thick hair that takes hours to air dry, and refuse to use blow dryers, so night is right out else I end up with a really shit bed-head curl situation…

    The sweet spot is mid-morning or around lunch, when I get sleepy anyway, given an hour to half-dry, then put up in a french clip bun, so when I take it down for the evening, it has a nice open curl. I never use the pretty, but it makes me feel very pretty at night.

        Yeah, and I’ve also tried stuff like conditioner washing (co-wash), mostly when I did fun dye colors, to preserve the color. But my threshold to feel gross is honestly low enough that my hair feeling nasty is my shower habit trigger, else I simply wont do any self-care. So while it’s technically an option, it’s not one that works with my self. :D
