LOL, I was taking a shower today when I started thinking about how I have to do things a certain way in the shower. It got me thinking how I would love to hear about other people's "weird" routines that they follow. When I shower, I have to shampoo first, then while my hairs soapy, I pile it on my head and wash my body...then I rinse from head to toe...then I condition and while the conditioner is in my hair, I do any and all shaving that needs to be done. And it's Always like that! I can't do it any other way, or else it's weird and I feel like my whole day's out of whack!

I shampoo, rinse, then condition. Then I brush my teeth -- which everyone tells me is wasteful to do in the shower. It's sort of like you said, if I don't then my whole day is off. Then I soap up, then shave, then rinse my hair. I wrap my hair in a towel (still in the shower). Then I wash my face and back again, with face soap this time, and then after I rinse I turn the shower off. Then I put on baby oil while still in the shower. I even have to put my robe and towel in the same place every day. I'm sort of OCD, I guess! Everything has it's own bizzaro justification in my head. But I could never shampoo, then shave, then condition. My head might explode! LOL!

I do have a routine too. It is pretty much the same as yours. I don't shave my legs in the shower though. I also wash my face very last because I don't like conditioner residue on my face.

I am the same way and I always thought I was normal...but my husband is always giving me a hard time about how I have to do things in a certain order. If I don't do them right I will go crazy, sometimes he will mess with my things (yes my stuff has to be in a certain place too) just to see how long it will take me to notice...and it usually isn't long. For my shower I shampoo, rince, put in conditioner and let that sit in my hair while I shave (and that has to be done in a certain order too), wash my body (in a certain order again) then rinse my body. And finally rinse the conditioner from my hair.

I have always wondered this as well. I know I do it differently than most, but it is my only way of doing it. I start with my right foot and leg, then go to the left, then... , then my chest to stomach, up to my left armpit then back over to my right armpit, then I wash my right arm, then left arm, my lower back up to my shoulder blades. I rinse off, then I rinse my face with water 4 times, I NEVER use soap on my face. I literally just scrub my face 4 times thoroughly with water. Then I run water through my hair, shampoo, and then I totally rerinse my body to make sure I got off all the soap. Funniest thing about it, I dry off from head to toe :P I guess, it may be weird or different, but it is how I have done it for near 15 years, and I don't think it'll ever change...
