Default Shower or baths?
Which one is more cleansing, a short bath, or a long shower? Of course a long bath would be more cleaning then a long shower, because you are surrounded in water. But a 3 minute math to a 10 minute shower, which is more cleansing? I always take showers but I was pondering this and thought it a nice question to ask.

Well, I think that when you're in a long bath, you're surrounded by the water that you've just washed off your body.

As opposed to taking a long shower, where the water is constantly washing off you.

Sometimes when I need to relax or destress, I take a shower first, then I run a nice hot bath with non-scented moisturizing bath salts (moisture = salt)... yeah, I know... with my diffuser with Snow from the Body Shop and no bathroom lights. Ahhhhh... relaxing...

YOu take a shower and a bath? That's using a lot of water. Choose one!; preferably shower, uses less water.

Sometimes I'll be in the middle of a shower, and I'll just plug the drain, and just sit there and let the shower turn into a bath. I don't do it often, but sometimes when I'm down i do it, it's relaxing.

Well, not everyday... usually once every week or so when I feel the need to relax. I just a have a quick shower to wash the day off and then soak...

For everyday purposes, I just shower...

I prefer baths, but I don't do it that often, because it uses a lot of water. But sometimes when I'm really in the mood I'll take a nice, warm bath. But showers are great too, still warm, but you have to stand.

I like showers; I don't like sitting in the bath residue. I'm like Vogueboy--I'd have to shower before getting into a bath. It's kinda redundant (lol), but relaxing.
