Problem of Personal Hygiene in Time Travel

I'm fascinated by time travel , going back in time.
The only problem I have with it is that the past the personal hygiene norms were a lot different than we are used to nowadays.
It kind of puts me off.

What a coincidence the other day I was watching an update western flick people had traveled somewhere west of St Louis, they all stopped at wayside town. Probably still wearing some clothes from day one.
Then, next seen was all them taking baths; now get this, some were full dressed scrubbing with a bar of soap, most kept their long John’s and again scrubbing themselves with a bar of soap.
only two or three were taking a real bath with soap. Something to think about
