Is it better to shower in the morning or at night?
BBC ^ | Sept 21, 2025 | Jasmin Fox-Skelly

Some people prefer to shower in the morning, others in the evening. Who is doing it the right way?

In this increasingly polarised world we live in, there is one question that perhaps divides us more than any other – do you shower first thing in the morning, or last thing at night? Or perhaps you are one of the 34% of the American population who do not shower daily.

Whichever camp you belong to, you may wonder what impact your choice has on your health.

some times both... depends on the day and what I’ve done to get dirty before bed. I’m not going to my sheets coated in dirt, sweat, etc... So at minimum a body wash/rinse.

Washing hair and shaving happens in the AM to get a good clean start to the day.

Most days, it’s just my morning routine.

No matter what you do what you do all day you can’t be very clean or smell that good.

Is that like not going swimming after you eat? I remember mom wouldn’t let us go in the water for at least a half hour after eating.

Since when has showering together been about showering?

After being married even a short while, NO PLAYING ALLOWED anymore. Save that for later.

And later becomes maybe later...

It’s kind of a blue collar/white collar thing. White collar workers shower before going to work so they don’t stink; blue collar workers shower after work to wash off the sweat from a hard days work.

Night. Never get in your rack dirty. Started doing this in the Nav and kept it up.

I’ve done both kinds of jobs - shower before work and shower after work.

I started work life in Local 812 International Brotherhood of Teamsters - definitely shower after work. Now I have a definitely shower before work gig.

To colleagues at noon it would have been better in morning.

To colleagues in morning that have to see your bed head and keep from laughing; better in morning.

A nights sleep showered...fantastic-er

Morning it is.

Then ahain when you get home before bedtime relaxing...for the misses!

Showering everyday is not necessary,negative for skin and a vanity bordering on OCD...unless one gets dirty/sweaty on a daily basis.
