I can take long ones, and I greatly enjoy doing so. If it's morning and I need to get going, I can usually get it done in 15ish minutes. A long, hot shower or bath is a good time to relax and think, especially with some good music playing.

Oops, I think I lied, I said I was going to bed in that "Good Night" thread, and here I am posting.

I'd like to, but I can't. Well unless I wanted a long cold shower, and I don't.

I average 20-30 minutes.

I have trouble getting myself to take a shower, but once I'm in there I don't want to get out. I wish I could take shorter showers.

i think i take around 30 - 40 minutes, but because im a woman ive got all my shampoo and conditioner to do, shaving, and washing properly etc etc. when im in the shower i must follow a routine, this is-
wash hair,
shave,
clip nails (this being because the water softens them),
wash from the head down,
get out, wrap hair up in a towel,
dry my body from the neck down

then theres my after-routine, which probably takes another 15 - 20 mins!

I take pretty long showers myself. The water just gets relaxing and so I stay in longer. I'm listening to that song that's playing on the radio in the bathroom.


Yep, I live in a student flat and electricity is included in the rent. So I dont have to think about the cost...

I just had my shower, wish I could take longer but my dad will end up knowking on the door (more like bangs) and personaly the stress from that is not worth the bit of extra time. That plus if I keep going against the water restrictions, I wont be in my dads good graces, as I like to take it just as everyone is getting ready to sleep, I like to feel clean before going to bed. What are others habits in the time of day they shower.
