Is It Best To Shower In The Morning Or At Night?

It really is basically a matter of individual preference. While sleeping, people will shed thousands of skin cells and sweat during the night. In opting to shower of an evening, prior to going to bed, you will be washing away a lot of the dead skin cells and by drying your body with a towel afterwards you will be getting rid of a lot more, meaning that you’re likely to attract less bugs and mites into your bed, meaning you could have the luxury of not changing your bedding quite as often. Warm water relaxes your body and prepares it for rest, and consequently sleep. The lovely, cosy feeling you get from climbing into bed with your body all clean and fresh is merely a bonus.

The argument for showering first thing in the morning, before going to work is that because you will have slept in your own perspiration during the night, and of course shed dead skin, that it is simply not pleasant to walk around all day feeling dirty and smelly. Therefore a shower in the morning, especially if you have a morning exercise routine, will set you up for the day; increasing your confidence in social situations and preparing you for any unforeseen events such as going for a drink with friends after work.

A cold shower, or more specifically turning your shower colder during the last few minutes of a shower has some health benefits: Warm water will send blood rushing to your skin, cold water will send it rushing to your internal organs, a combination of this i.e. Starting with warm and ending with cold will boost the circulation and can help avoid conditions such as hypertension, varicose veins, acne and hardness of the arteries. Therefore the best advice would be to have a normal shower of an evening and another of a morning, with the last few minutes turned to the cold setting.

I think it is best to shower at night before you go to bed. That way your sheets stay cleaner longer. Also it is relaxing to be clean and fresh. Lots of people say to shower in the morning to help wake up, but you can get that effect by washing your face with warm and cold washcloth.

I think at night so you can sleep better and it relaxes you after a day... =)

Shower at night because all the germs, sweat and body odor from being up and active for 16 plus hours throughout the day.  Everyone sweats, even women, but at different levels.  I just feel nasty getting into bed like that after going outside. If I can't shower at night for some reason I have to change the sheets on the bed the next day.

My husband and I prefer to shower or take a bath at night. We go to bed without the dirt, germs, and sweat of the day. Clean and relaxed to end the day together.

I like to shower at night/earlier in the evening. I like the feeling of getting in bed very clean. You can also change just the pillowcases when you wash your hair if the sheets are okay to you and save time that way. I let my hair air dry and that takes several hours depending on indoors humidity. I also don't like to get out soon after a shower because the skin pores are open and ready to absorb all the bad stuff outside. In the mornings I spot clean.

I take a bath, but I would say at night... although a morning shower does wake people up. But I prefer at night.

Both ,If you shower in the morning it helps to wake you up and if you take a shower at night it will help you sleep.

Shower at night and morning, wash hair every other night since I have short hair that dries quickly. Night because I can wash off the sweat and grime of the day because I work and go to school and Morning after a light workout for just about 5 to 8 mins to wake up and feel refreshed. My gf on the other hand likes to shower only in the mornings, which is beyond me since one is exposed to more crap during the day. Then again girls don't sweat like a guy so it might be fine for them.

At night

It's better to take showers at night

Shower at night because you can sleep in. If you put on 24 hour deodorant  after you shower you won't sweat as much at night. If you shower at night you can sleep in an extra 15 minutes ore prepare a nice breakfast

In the morning is best for me as it wakes me up and gets the overnight funk washed off.

Taking a hot shower in the morning is more likely to relax you and keep you from waking up faster, so it's not always a good thing if you're really groggy. I like to take a cold shower in the morning because it makes me feel fresher and cleaner for the rest of the day, but sometimes I shower at night because it's one less thing to worry about before I go to work in the morning.

I'm going to say in the morning because it seems to me like the water is generally warmer

I may be a little wierd. I like my shower in the morning, it's a must for me. Then if I get dirty working or something another shower, and yeah if I am not sleepy sometimes a shower or a bath to relax.
