5 Personal Hygiene Mistakes you Might be Making

Adulting is hard — just when you think you’re doing OK, science pops up to tell you you’re doing it all wrong. Inspired by Buzzfeed's recent article about proper showering etiquette, I have compiled a list of all the hygiene-related things you should be doing if you want to call yourself a responsible member of society, covering everything from how often you should wash your bath towels to how often you should wash yourself, and more. Don’t be discouraged if you’ve been getting some of these wrong your entire life; there’s always room for change. And just to prove to you that you’re not the only one whose hygiene habits are now suddenly questionable, I’m going to include my personal guesses before the actual answers.

My guess: Every few weeks

Real Answer: Every few days

Yikes, was I wrong. According to Good Housekeeping, you should swap out your Question #1: How often should you wash your bath towels?

bath towels every three uses (those are the ones you use to dry yourself off with after a shower). However, hand towels need to be changed out more often than that — every day or two. Somebody point me to the nearest Bed Bath & Beyond because clearly the three sets of towels I own are just not cutting it.
