I spend alot of time in the shower, I like to know that I am clean. But I have long surfer hair so its kinda hard to keep it clean, I have to wash it like 2-3 times before knowing that its silky smooth.

I actually know how that is.... My brother enjoys keeping his hair longer and yet he washes it every other day and only for about three minutes. He showers every day at least and yet he only actualyl washes every other. During the school year it's only about once a week that the water even touches him. I think it just may be faze as he's just about to turn 12 even. He wears more makeup than I do and yet he showers WAY less. Sorry you had to be stuck with him for a whole long time.... I still know how that feels... I went across country with mine....

Your brother wears make up!?

Getting back on subject..

The boy was on holiday so mayby thats why he didnt wash as much as he should have. Or he could generally be a dirty person...

Aint is not a damn word. Im sorry but i seriously lose respect for people who use it, its so very annoying. It should be atleast "There is no way..."

Back to the original topic:

You say you were on vacation, so where were you all taking a shower in? Maybe he didnt feel comfortable taking a shower in the place/places you all took showers in. I know personally i prefer to shower in my own shower, and will normally avoid taking showers at other peoples house, or especially hotels or camps.

Plus he is 10, and i think 10 years old is about the average time for kids to not want to take a shower. Because probably around 6-8 is when kids start to take baths/showers on their own without the help of their parents. So then by 10, its like hey...i dont have to take a long shower, or i can just stand in there, and pretend to take a shower... but the timing/pretending time isnt all that accurate.

Its about Maturity too, so i don't know. If he was like 14...i think there'd be a problem but kids [like under 11] are lazy and don't really know better i guess.

well i guess i forgot to mention,

the last week of this vacation we stayed at his house (my uncles house) where this kid lives, and he took showers there just as long as he did at the motels we stayed at

(we stayed at best western motels)

i asked my uncle if he always takes such short showers and he said yes... lol so, oh well

JasperIK, maybe you should post a vent about people who use aint, because, yes, it is a word look in any up-to-date dictionary, it is in there

Heh...
Okay, let me put up my background again. I study in an all-girls HIGH school. I have this classmate who acts like a tomboy and she stinks at times. When she talks, you can see the things stuck in her teeth and she has foul breath. Generally speaking, tomboys are being avoided here, but those other parts make it worse.

We found out that she doesn't always take a bath because the water is too cold! What kind of a reason is that? First of all, she's a girl. AND, she's 15. 15 year old girls NEED to maintain their hygiene for various reasons that should be kept secret. It doesn't mean that because you're a tomboy, you're not a girl physically anymore, you know. If the water is too cold, heat some water up.

Very funny I can take a shower in like six minutes. But I just think he does not like to take showers.( I say throw him outside in his underwear and throw a bar of soap at him then spray him with the hose.

well 6 minutes i think might be good, but it most definatly is wayy better than a two minute shower!!

i think the smallest showe i have taken (time wise) is like 7 to 8 minutes, and things like that are on the weekend when i have nothing to do but sit at home... i dont scrub like mad, i just put soap, shampo, wash and go... but on schol days i scrub... *required* lol
