Bath then shower.
I like salt baths than bubble baths.

SW-User

@CookieCrumbs Don't you mean bath salts?

JRVanguard · 26-30, M

Relaxing
I love to lay there and have the water from the shower head come down on me😌

Lilymoon · F

@JRVanguard doesn't that fill the tub up more? 🤔 haha

JRVanguard · 26-30, M

@Lilymoon It does
I get in when it’s like a quarter full and have it slowly fill around me😌

Lilymoon · F

@JRVanguard Ahhh ok that sounds nice. I'mma try it. 😁

NotJamieM · 51-55, M

Relaxing. But most tubs aren't ideal for a 6 foot person.

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

@NotJamieM Rhar's why we have an oversized tub. The only one I've ever had that I can actually relax in. The inside is about 5' x 2.5'

NotJamieM · 51-55, M

@ChipmunkErnie I paid extra for a hotel room in northern Vermont where I was hiking a couple mountains, because the room had an oversized clawfoot tub and I knew I'd need it.

Lilymoon · F

I love long hot baths. Especially during the winter.

SW-User

I had a herbal bath today before my massage. That’s about the only time I have one. I don’t typically enjoy sitting in a tub of my own dirt.

SW-User

I always take a quick shower after a bath. Baths for me are just to relax in, not to clean.

I find baths extermely relaxing.
I Soak for 20 min in a bath infused with mineral and essential oils. Have eucalyptus scented candles burning. Maybe some low classical music playing. Then afterwards do my skin care rountine and moisturize.

SledgeHammer · 46-50, M

@Noblety you must get out smelling and feeling real purdy..

Lol

Noblety · M

@SledgeHammer actually, I do haha.

Souls

Have you ever tried an Epsom salt bath? Must try!

HannibalMontanimal · 31-35, M

Gross. Baths are for babies. Grown ups take showers

This may seem weird but... I have to take a shower before a take a bath or get into a hot tub...

Is that weird?

I just feel as if I'm stewing in my own filth if I dont shower first..

Lmao

NerdyPotato ·

@SledgeHammer that's not weird at all. You do the same before getting in a pool, right?

SledgeHammer · 46-50, M

@NerdyPotato yep!

33person · 26-30, M

Neither. I just have sensitive skin, so I prefer showers that don't involve soaking too long and allow me to rinse the soap all the way off.

smileylovesgaming · 31-35, F

@33person well u are suppose to rinse off before u get out of the bath

33person · 26-30, M

@smileylovesgaming Yes, but bath water by the end of a bath is less pure than the water coming out of the showerhead.

Sweetpoison · 41-45, F

I love baths but only during winter

I like baths and find them relaxing but I tend to get bored and then I think it's a waste of time, water and gas. This makes me stressed so I tend to have a quick shower.

Teslin · M

Although I rarely take a bath, I would find them relaxing.
But then I would have to shower off !!

Pretzel · 70-79, M

I only take a bath when I have a severe headache and need to relax.

Otherwise I prefer showers.

Imsleepy · 31-35

Relaxing in a bath is great, but I prefer a shower to get clean.

TryingtoLava

@Imsleepy :) this!!!

OceanRoses · F

Yes hot, and Epson salts,
eucalyptus oils of course
🍷cool shower after...

Souls

Gross, I have to take a shower after taking a bath to feel clean

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

@Souls And just think -- before the bath you find so gross all that filth was directly stuck to you. ;)

TheOneyouwerewarnedabout · 46-50, MVIP

Community spas are gross. Warm soup of other ppls piss and dead skin

TryingtoLava

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout eewwwwww community pools too

SW-User

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout 🤮

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

Relaxing, particularly with a good book to read while I soak.

SW-User

Do sponge baths count? 🙂Then yes.. yes I do!

exexec · 70-79, C

Relaxing with our walk-in tub with jets

summersong · F

Boring…I can’t sit still for that long.

Sidewinder · 36-40, M

I find them to be very relaxing.

GJOFJ3 · 61-69, M

Our jet tub is very relaxing

@SW-User THAT said it ALL!

SW-User

@MoonlightLullabyOld Doesn't it though? She even converts Spike (the guy questioning why there's no hot water) into doing it. 😂

MoonlightLullabyOld

@SW-User I watched it twice over & LMAO. Epic stuff. 🤣

smileylovesgaming · 31-35, F

Relaxing

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

I always wonder why people find lying in "dirty" water so gross when they stop to consider all that "dirty" was actually attached to their skin before the bath and they had spent the day walking around in that coat of dirt.

SW-User

..dear water helps
to ease the pain
from thoughts that taunt
and tease my brain
still calmness felt
from delta's blast
will not erase
my troubled past..

bijouxbroussard · F

I don’t like the bathtub I have now, it’s modern—small and utilitarian. I lived in a flat years ago that had a roomy, deep claw foot tub. I took baths all the time then, wonderful luxurious bubble baths. But now it’s strictly showers.

ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M

@bijouxbroussard When I bought our house it had one of those little modern tubs in it; I could barely fit, no way to relax and soak. Then we replaced it with an over-sized tub, about 3'x5'. Heaven to soak in, read, relax.

TryingtoLava

Sooo secret to baths take a shower beforeeeee to get all the grossness off cuz likee youre sittin in yourself

smileylovesgaming · 31-35, F

@TryingtoLava or just rinse off before u get out of the bath

Torsten · 36-40, M

soaking in your own filth juices.. 🤔 not gross at all haha

SW-User

@Torsten true that!

Torsten · 36-40, M

@SW-User plus the damn low water pressure in my house, it would take 2 weeks maybe to fill the damn tub haha

SW-User

@Torsten oh that’s terrible!

SW-User

Relaxing. Unfortunately I don't have access to a tub, sso haven't had one in about 2 decades

SW-User

It’s a lot of trouble tending to a bath. I usually require a willing partner to make it worthwhile.

SW-User

I like them. They're definitely not gross, but I usually don't have the time to bother with one.

thepeculiarpanda · 36-40, M

I can't really take them. Too hard to get in and out of and sitting there makes my legs angrier than usual. 🤔

TurtleEclipseOfTheHeart · 26-30, F

Baths don’t have to be gross. Just take a quick rinse off shower afterwards. 💁🏿‍♀️

MrGoodbar · 51-55, M

a nice soak in the tub is great to relax but not for getting cleaning. Shower first

theoldschoola · 46-50, M

I don't take baths unless there is a beautiful woman in the tub with me.

DreamyCrush · F

I don’t take baths as often as I used to, however, I do enjoy them.

hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M

A social event in a hot tub is fun. For cleansing I much prefer a shower.

ozgirl512 · 31-35, F

Shower for getting clean, bath to relax...

Northwest · M

I have a Jacuzzi tub. I shower before getting in.

SW-User

Too small. I can't remember the last time I had a bath.

SW-User

so relaxing i have one every night after work

ddlknaz · M

I like relaxing in a bath, and shower as I get out.

NerdyPotato ·

Relaxing. Even watching someone else take one. 😏

Tonydang · M

I just can’t do them 2 minutes and I want out
