Do you use one or more towels or washcloths?
Do you get worried that you might have dried your face with the same side you dried your butt with?
You’re drying yourself off after cleaning yourself. If you cleaned yourself properly, it doesn’t matter what you dry first.
Disagree: if you start at the top and work down, then the wet spots don’t drip down onto the parts you’ve already dried.
Counterpoint - I dry my legs and feet first as those are the first to cause water to get on the floor. Then I get a bathrobe and finally work on the hair.
Question was targeted at men
This just in, men don’t have hair
It was an attempt to joke about it, nothing offensive. Picturing it doing this in that order, with a bathrobe and then having the relaxed time to work on the hair isn’t really relatable for me. Also, i never met a men yet who refers to its beard as hair (beard hair vs hair)
Don’t feel bad, my thoughts were similar to yours.
Luckily I am a man.
PREPOSTEROUS, MEN DONT HAVE HAIR
Ooff fuck you, guys. You are downvoting me without a serious reply.
Socks up, thight high, I differ and I’m - high
I am not against this. I support it. But let me be or confront me with my misunderstandings, anonyomous sucker.
Apparently a lot of other peeps in the comments are continually leaking from their orifices or something
I don’t need pubic hair in my face. I’ll start from the top and work down. Not sure why people are so compelled to argue.
If you feel the need to floss your ass then hit your face, by all means you do you.
I don’t need pubic har in my face.
Speak for yourself.
Speak for yourself.
I believe that’s what everyone was doing, but it seemed to upset some people for some reason.
Maybe they’re drying someone else off, don’t kink-shame.
Ok, but if you do ass last, you’re still just getting ass on face the next day.
It’s assface all the way down
and top to bottom, like someone with a brain.
So you dry off your butt first and then your face with the same towel?
Do you not wash your ass?
I do, but I still wouldn’t do that!
Clean your ass better.
Doesn’t matter! Could get that thing NASA clean room levels of clean and I’m still not going to towel off my butt before my face. That’s just weird!
So you change your towels every time? Otherwise when you start again, the last time you used it, you wiped your butt with it.
Yes, I have a whole basket full of towels. I use them all once and hang them up. After the basket is empty I wash them all
Why is it weird? It’s just your butt. Are you scared of your butt?
No. Do you?
I start with drying my anus and work in concentric circles out from that, so yes, my face is about last
Ye olde Zen Garden technique, a classic.
I go top down but I’ve also been known to reuse towels for more than one day so … yea.
Generally top to bottom but don’t overthink it.
Yup I’ll just chime in to add I dry off while still standing in the shower to minimize wetness on my bathroom mat
Well, usually i take my underwear off first…
It seems more efficient to wash it while you shower, no?
There’s dozens of us!
😂
When I see a comment I like or a comment that makes me smile or a comment that I perceive as advancing the conversation - even if it doesn’t match the other two requirements - I upvote.
It’s pretty rare that I see a comment that gets a physical or vocal reaction out of me. This is only the second one I can remember on lemmy. Your comment made me literally guffaw. My opinion isn’t anything special, but it’s all I have to offer and I want to make sure you know you had an impact on me. Thank you.
I’m glad I made such a short list 🙂 a bit of laughter is a good thing.
Why is that guy wearing underwear if he’s just gotten out of the shower? Does he put his underwear on and then dry himself? Am I doing showers wrong?!
No you leave it on in the shower.
As a fellow nevernude…
I start with grit 60, working up to 120, then a 600 for the smoothest finish, then a once over with a buffing pad for a shine that really glows. Always top to bottom.
Pfft. No wet sanding with 1000, 2000, 4000, 8000. Amateur.
Top to bottom. Water runs downhill.
I use the side of my hand to squegee it all down, then just have to towel off a little dampness. Learned that technique as a kid when I went to camp and only had a hand towel size for 2 weeks because of poor packing.
I just try to befriend the water and it vanishes.
You mean to tell me y’all aren’t just standing in front of a huge, industrial fan to dry off?
Head to toe, my dudes. Any other way is objectively wrong.
Top to bottom but with D and E switched
I finish with the D too!
I dry my croch and ass first so I can get that fresh whiff when the towel goes to my face.
Top to bottom-ish. But I consistently use one side of the towel for my face, and the other side for my junk. I know it doesn’t matter as I have cleaned up everywhere anyway, but I like to keep it separated anyway.
But do you track the face and junk sides across showers?
Yup! There’s that thing you can hang the towel from, I consider that side “up”.
I deviced this system as a child, I have honestly never stopped to think about whether it’s reasonable or not.
The tag or label on the towel.
D2, B
I dry from head to toe. I use two towel, one just for my hair because I have long-ass hair and by the time I’m done drying it, the towel is usually pretty damp so I have another for my body.
https://xkcd.com/37/ oh wow, I need some mind-bleach now.
Thanks for the LOL kind stranger, it’s been a while since going over the comments felt worthwhile like this.
I just shake the water off like a dog.
It’s good twerking practice, too!
