Night before. Otherwise, I'm just rubbing all the day's sweat and dirt onto my sheets/pillows/blanket. I don't want to roll around in that every night.
 
always take one in the morning...if I workout or play (volleyball, 20+ mile bike ride, etc), I take another show afterwards...

Exactly the way I think. I take one every night before I sleep. Also makes me sleep better I think.
 
always at night. otherwise, i wake up and my face is oily and full of fresh zits. also simple don't have the time in the morning.
 
at night, I dislike going to bed dirty. Also I wouldn't have time in the morning to shower, other plus is that it balances out with the other guys in my apartment complex.

Night..

For this reason, and also I am a night person.. I like to minimize the activities I have to do first thing in the morning so I have more time to sleep.
 
Usually always morning. If I go to the gym in the evenings I'll take one at night as well.... but will take another one the morning after to wake up.

Was talking to a friend over MSN last night when i said "BRB shower."

He seemed shocked that I would take a shower at night instead of when i wake up in the mornings. He said that I was the only person he knew of that would take showers at night, before going to bed.

I was 😕 at that, since half of my friends take showers at night. I've always thought that showers at either the morning or night was just pretty normal and just a perference thing, but he seemed to insist that something was off about showering at night.

So.. anyone else showers at night? Is it normal? or do I need my meds?

You're Asian I presume? When I was a kid, and went to this summer school with white kids, they all said they showered in the morning and I felt left out, but I think it's fine. Most Asians shower at night. Now I just shower in the morning because I want to smell fresh. I used to shower twice a day, but I'm lazy now.

If I do go to the gym, it's a shower right after.

Nighttime I usually wash my face and stuff to get the dirt off from the day, but unless I'm extra stinky (clubbing or whatever), I just hop right into bed. This is a huge change from high school and my first 2 years of college when I did shower at night every night.
 
I dont like to take a shower at night because I like my face moist to shave. The other reason is I dont like to go to sleep with wet hair. You wake up in the morning and your hair looks crazy. However, if you were exercising in the evening you might want to shower at night.

yeah >.<

Im surprised that it looks pretty even so far. keep the votes coming :cookie:
 
I don't think this has to do with being Asian or any other race (Asian isn't even a race since Asia has white people, black people, arab people, indian people and oriental people). Different people shower at different times.

I shower when I feel like it.
 
Night. I'm not good at waking up in the morning, especially if I know that the event to follow is either work or class - it's not good motivation to move. 🙂 I certainly won't have time to take a shower.
I also don't like sleeping feeling all gross from the day's various sweaty and oily secretions, and accumulated dirt. The other advantage is that this means I don't have to launder the sheets as often, since I'm using them after I've been freshly washed.
 
Mornings are a necessity. I don't see how you can NOT shower in the morning.

I shower at night too if I'm not lazy.
 
I generally shower in the morning for two reasons - to wake myself up, and because my hair just goes insane and won't go back to normal w/o washing it. Plus, I feel kinda grimy all day. My wife though, hates for me to get into the bed w/o taking a shower. She preferes to take them at night. I don't think it really matters.
