Bath poll (non-clicky)

Do you take baths (as opposed to showers)?  How often?  I'm often struck by the number of people who say they have a great jet tub but never use it.

We have one of said tubs and I probably use it a handful of times a year.  I use it to induldge and relax, not to actually bathe.  I really enjoy it but also hate the thought of "wasting" all those gallons of water so I don't do it too often.

I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

Re: Bath poll (non-clicky)

  • Yes. I generally take 1 a week- it is my alone time.

    With that said, I only take a bath in the winter. It's not as enjoyable for me in the warm months. 

  • I just took a bath for the first time in a looong time the other week. It was nice, though I wish I had a small pillow because my head/neck were uncomfortable.

    I think if we had a jet tub I'd take more baths.

  • No, I never do.  I bet I would like it if I had a nice tub, but I don't. 
  • I can't remember the last time I took a bath.

    This.  I actually enjoy baths every now and then, but we need a new tub before I'll take one at our house

  • I don't know why, but bath tubs kindve freak me out. I never feel like there's enough room to move around. So, to answer your question - no I don't take baths but might if it were some fancy shmancy extra roomy one :)

  • I haven't taken a bath in a long time. Probably because our drain doesn't really work in the apartment. I don't like taking bath's either, unless it's a jacuzzi with bubbles Smile
  • I take a bath every night Embarrassed I have been like that my whole life. I always had such bad stomach aches due to m endometriosis and the hot water would make me feel better!  But I shower too so I can wash my hair. But I need my nightly bath.

  • I LOVE the bath!!!  Showers are my "regular" thing, and baths are my treat.  I have an entire storage container (a 3-drawer cart) in our spare bathroom full of bath goodies.  Face masks, bath salts, bubble bath, bath fizzies, bath scents, "cucumber" eye patches, skin scrubbies, scented candles, etc.  I have an extra long bathrobe, and a portable iPod player with a remote and special "relaxing" playlists.  I take a nice long bath any time I have had a long day or week, or get stressed out from the family or the wedding stuff, any time I need a treat, or just whenever I get super cold.  I usually take baths in the evening (I take showers in the mornings), and put my hair up, but sometimes if I haven't showered that day (like if it's a saturday morning or early afternoon) then I'll lean back and wash my hair in the faucet like I did when I was a kid- the different pressure feels good on your scalp.  And if I'm REALLY stressed out, I'll take some wine in with me!!

  • I never take baths, I also feel like it's a waste of water and I don't have the attention span to just hang out in there.
  • I love baths, but we live in an apartment and it kinda freaks me out to bathe in the tub. I clean it, but no amount of bleach will make me ok with it so I haven't taken a bath in forever. But we're trying to buy right now... so I'll feel better about it then :)
