dunno how people really get clean in 5 minutes. i use a scrub pad. either a scrub pad, those fluffy poofy things or brush will clean your skin far better then your hand will. if your just using your hand.. well, thats ineffective. :)

i brush/floss in the shower cuz its easier there, don't have to bend over to spit. shower spray works as nice water pik:)

shaving works in the shower too since your already wet.

if you use separate conditioner it takes even longer.

i can take short showers (under 10 min) when i need to. but i'm lazy and slow and sometimes just stand there. so i'm usually 10-15 or even 15+ occasionally

It really depends. I like to wake up in the shower, so I'll sit in there for 15 minutes or so, just breathing in the warm, moist air (I'm from Biloxi, and in summer, the air is exactly like that found in a shower ;) ). If I'm already awake, it takes about 2 minutes.

My roommate, a guy, takes the most unholy longest showers for a male I've ever seen. Luckily our schedules are staggered a bit where this doesn't effect me entirely, but when I've gotta go #1 or #2, it's frustrating. He is still going strong, and has been in there since 8:02am. It's now 8:26am.

How long does it take you guys to take a shower?

Just go in and go while he's in there... a good #2 session might make him rethink his stance on the eternal shower....LOL

Bottom line... when ya gotta go, you gotta go...

It takes me 5 - 10 minutes! :)

If I'm in a hurry I can do it in under 5 though. :)

Since Geekbabe didn't provide me with pics, can I assume you're probably not going to either? :p

I usually stay in until the water starts to get cold. No idea how long that is, but more than 20 minutes.
