10 Important Things You Should Keep In Mind When Having A Bath
​

1- ​​Don't Shower Immediately After Exercising:
Working out rises body temperature, If you take a bath right after, you may catch a cold.


2- Don't Use Too Much Soap:
The excessive usage of soap will leave your skin dry and lifeless. Reserve it for the parts that really need it...

​
​3- Hair Conditioning:
Chemicals in shampoo extract the natural oil of the hair. It's important to take proper care by moisturizing it with a good conditioner to have shiny hair and prevent split ends.
​
​

4- Don't Over-scrub:
Don't do it to hard or to often. Never more than once a week. It will ruin your skin and it can lead to skin infections.

​
​5- Be Careful With The Loofah/Scrubber/Washcloth:
If the scrubber doesn't dry properly between uses, beware! While it's damp it breeds bacteria that can cause skin allergies, itching, or even a staphylococcus infection! Actually, a good soap and your hands are enough. If you MUST use it, always remember to rinse it and let it dry.
​
​

6- Don't Leave The Towel On:
Leaving the hair towel on for too long will dry your skin and cause hair loss.

​
7- Anti-Bacterial Soap And Deodorant:
Putting on deodorant immediately after having a bath may cause itching, flakiness and even dry skin because of the chemicals in it. And anti bacterial soap shouldn't be used for a bath.
​

8- Moisturize Right Away:
Don't wait for more than 3 minutes after coming out of the shower. It may lead to skin moisture loss, causing cracks that leave the body more exposed to bacteria and infections.

​
9- Don't!
Never wax or shave before the bath. It increases the size of the pores, and leads to dull skin.
