when taking a bath, do you shampoo your hair or do you soap your body first?
what i'd do is shampoo my hair first then apply conditioner and i'd let it stay there for 3-5 minutes. while waiting, i'd soap my body then scrub a little then i'd rinse:)

it depends on if i am shaving my legs lol. i wear glasses and i am as blind as a bat. if i am shaving then i use soap first. that way the water doesnt get on my glasses or they dont fog up. this way i can see my legs lol. if i am not shaving then i first wash my hair. i take showers only cause i dont like sitting in the dirt i cleaned off of me. funny huh?

I think I shampoo my hair first, because then I have plenty of time to let the conditioner sit in and soak before rinsing out. I hate having to rinse my hair with water that has started to cool down because the hot water has run out. Soap can happen whenever, but the hair comes first.

I shampoo my hair first too.The most of the times I use conditioner but sometimes I don't.If I use i let it at my hair until I soap my body.The last thing I do is let the hot water as long I can over to my body and head,even if I know the very hot water isn't so good...

I shampoo first, then facial wash and then soap. But I wash *down there* first before shampooing. I've read somewhere that one way to prevent heart attacks or something to not wet your head first. I don't know. But I've always been used in my routine for a long time now.

i do the shampoo my hair and wash my body with soap as shampoo needs to be left for a while to act on the hair. i think every everyone who bathes over the head regularly does that way.

I don't take a bath. I prefer showers. But, I will always wash my hair first and then condition it. Doing it this way allows all the suds from your hair to wash off before you even start on the rest of you.
When I have no choice and I do take a bath, I will always do my hair first. I don't want to use dirty water on my hair. I have really long hair and it takes awhile.

When I take a shower I do it exactly like you. Shampoo first, conditioner and scrub scrub while the conditioner is on.
When I fill up the tub and relax in a nice bubble bath I usually do the opposite. First relax for a few minutes in the nice hot water, then I soap, rinse, then wash my hair.
No sure why I reverse it like that, but that's the way it goes :)

The first thing i do in the shower is wash my hair. Then i scrub my body and shave my legs.underarms and genital area. Then i rinse off. dry off and brush my hair and teeth.

I also do that. Hehe. Eventhough sometimes i don't put conditioner when i am in hurry, i stay the shampoo in my hair for about 3-5 minutes so while witing, i'd scrub my body.

I have the very same routine. We must be very efficient people because we make the very best of our time in the shower and make the most of the products we have. Truthfully, I have such a busy life and hit the ground running most mornings so I have to be very organized, even when I take my shower.
