Sorry, but I can't go a day without a shower. It is IMPOSSIBLE for me. What can I say? I love feeling clean.

Yeah I shower every 24 hours or so except when I go hunting/camping then I don't shower for 3 days at the most. Man it must of sucked going on an Apollo mission because you're in that tiny space capsule with two other stinky guys for 8-9 days. Especially Apollo 13 because not only was their CM crippled but the smell must of been just awful in there. That and they were in the LEM most of the time and that can only fit 2 people so... damn. ;)

Usually once a day, especially at the moment (it is stinking hot in Sydney).

The last time I didn't shower for a long stretch of time was when I was travelling to the US. By the time I went to the airport, took the two flights to the US and then made my way to the hotel, grabbed a bite and flopped; it had been nearly a day since I showered. Doesn't seem like much at first, but having been sitting in a crowded plane for much of that time made me feel incredibly funky. Don't think I go go that long again for some time.

I shower, but I'm not a very smelly person to begin with..probably because I never get any exercise.

I'd rather not try to see how long I could go without showering..it could get pretty smelly. Maybe 2 weeks? I'd give in after my hair starts sticking to my face.

Why do you do such things to yourselves? Doesn't anyone else complain about their smell?

A couple days is my answer. My gets extremely oily if I don't shower every 24 hours.

I shower everyday, but there have been a few times that I have had to go longer. (stuck at the hospital with a loved one, snowed in with no power/water).

I'd recommend taking a garden hose to your friends and forcing them to shower. Seriously, what they are doing isn't healthy, funny or cool.

At least once a day... I don't think I'd be able to stand going more than a day without one.

The most I could go is three days, but that would be rare. Two days is usually the most. Quite often I dont shower on Sundays, but that is about it.

When I was a kid, I used to go 4 days without showering in the summer since school was out. Now I have to shower and shampoo every day or my hair gets too oily and drives me crazy.

Can't go without a shower for 2 days if I'm busy it will become 3 days.
