But did you know if you are doing a shower activity could pose a hazard to health if you shower in the wrong way? Listed below are 10 Most Common Bathing Mistakes You Might Be Making. 1. Shampooing Every Day Who would have thought when shampooing or washing your hair that you do every day can harm health, especially the health of your hair? This is because the shampoo will take away the natural oils in the hair shaft. If this oil is missing then your hair will be brittle, easily fall out, and even damaged due to lack of nutrition. We recommend that you wash your hair every 2-3 days so that you allow your hair oil to reach the ends of the hair and make it a healthy glow. 2. Spending too much time in the shower We’ve all, at some point in time felt the effect of a soothing, stress relieving , body calming bath so bad that we want to spend as much time there as we can – and most often we do. We take our time in the bathroom, thinking its good for the skin. Well, it isn’t. Spending over 10 minutes in the bathroom strips your skin of moisture, making it dry and unhealthy. Extended lack of moisture can lead to wrinkling and loss of that healthy skin glow. 3. Bath With Hot Water Bath with hot water or warm water after a day of activities is a luxury and fun. That is why a lot of people who like to shower with hot water. But you know if the hot water will make your skin and hair dry? For hot water will remove the natural oils in your skin. In addition, hot water will make your skin pores open, so vulnerable to dirt and bacteria. Conversely, when a cold shower your skin will be rejuvenated. 4. Dry Your Hair With a Towel Dry your hair with a towel is probably the way most quickly and efficiently. But it is actually harmful to your hair. This is because the towel will damage the hair follicles that make your hair is damaged and rough. Therefore if you want to stay healthy and beautiful hair, dry hair with a natural way that is aerated. 5. Using a Scrub Every Day Scrub or exfoliating aims to peel the dead skin cells that can make your skin glow is always smooth. Therefore many people who then carry out their activities every shower scrubbing with the hope that this practice will make their skin smooth. However rub your skin too often it will make your skin dry and susceptible to infection. Because the performance of the sebaceous glands will be disrupted. Should do the scrubbing only 1 time a week. 6. Shaving Before Bathing Both men and women have the habit of shaving pubic hair and fine hairs on their bodies. Usually this is done before the bath. But apparently it is jeopardizing the health of the skin because your pores are still open to be exposed to soap and make chemicals get into your body. It is suggested, the best time to shave is after you shower because the water will soften your skin so that the activities will be safer shave. 7. Rarely Wash Towels Maintain cleanliness towel is very important. Because towel is a gathering place for bacteria and dead skin cells. Therefore you are obliged to wash your after use at least 3-4 times use. Wash towel with hot water can do to make your towels are always clean and hygienic. 8. Deodorants & Anti-bacterial soaps The fragrances and chemicals in this soap strips the body of its moisture, drying it up and causing damage to it. This may cause itchiness and flakiness. Also, some of these chemicals may be too harsh on your skin, especially towards sensitive skin. 9. Combing your hair while washing it: When washing your hair, your pores are open and the hair follicle is weak. Combing your hair when its wet and in this position leads to hair breakage. 10. Soaping the entire body: This may sound crazy but its not necessary to use soaps on every part of the body. Areas of the body like the hand, legs, stomach and back do not produce as much body oil as the face, neck, armpit, groin area, buttocks and feet. So avoid washing the less oil producing parts of the body and pay more attention to the oil producing areas. You can wash your entire body once or twice a week if you want to.
