Publish Not your original work? Add source We've all heard it a million times: wash behind your ears. Floss every day. Dry shampoo is not a substitute for washing your hair, and you should probably be washing your hands even more often than you do. Personal hygiene is not something to take lightly, as it is vital to our health and our social lives. Nobody wants to cuddle up on the couch next to someone who reeks of garlic breath or sweaty gym clothes! But even though hygiene is second nature to most of us, it's never a bad idea to have a reminder to wash your bedsheets every week and change your toothbrush head every few months. Below, we've gathered some of the most important hygiene tips people have been sharing in this Reddit thread, so all of you pandas can stay healthy, happy and smelling fresh as a daisy. Keep reading to also find an interview with Dr. Mike Czubiak, host of the Hygiene Superstar podcast, to hear his thoughts on the topic. Be sure to upvote all of the hygiene habits that you think are underrated, and feel free to leave any of your own recommendations in the comments below. Then if you're interested in reading another Bored Panda article noting the importance of showering every day, check out this story next.

View more comments To gain some insight on this topic, we reached out to Dr. Mike Czubiak, a practicing general dentist in California and host of the Hygiene Superstar podcast. First, we wanted to hear what inspired him to start his podcast in the first place. "I started the podcast to educate dental hygienists and preventive dentists on the crucial rule that they play in the health of their patients," Dr. Mike told Bored Panda. "We have always done good, but we can do better." We also asked him if he could remind our readers why dental hygiene is so important. "Dental hygiene is important because the bacteria that grow and mature in our mouths and the inflammation they cause are connected to cancer, heart disease and even COVID," he explained. "If your gums aren't healthy, you are 9x more apt to die from COVID." #2 In the kitchen: after you touch raw meat, wash your hands before touching anything else period. icecream_dragon , Angele J Report Final score: 228points POST 2picklesinabun 2picklesinabun Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago I sure hope everyone does this one 70 70points reply View More Replies... View more comments We also asked Dr. Mike if he could note some of the dental hygiene practices that are often underrated or overlooked. "Flossing is pretty much a waste of time," he shared. Before you feel like you're off the hook, keep reading. "I have not found any research suggesting that flossing is effective. Interdental brushes like GUM soft picks and oral irrigators like Waterpiks are much more effective," Dr. Mike explained. He also left readers with a task, "Go to Pubmed or Google scholar and search scholarly articles for periodontal disease and then name a disease. See how bodily diseases are connected to our mouth. Brushing your teeth is good, brushing up on knowledge is better!" If you'd like to gain even more knowledge from Dr. Mike, be sure to check out the Hygiene Superstar podcast right here. #3 My dentist said to me 'you brush in the morning to keep your friends and you brush at night to keep your teeth.' 1DietCokedUpChick Report Final score: 225points POST Šimon Špaček Šimon Špaček Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago I used to forget or skip morning brushing.

But beyond the absolute basics such as showering every day, washing your hands after using the bathroom and before eating, wearing deodorant daily, and brushing your teeth twice a day, some people have differing opinions on what else is necessary. For example, shoes on inside the home is not an issue at all to some people, while others would rather burn down their house than allow dirty shoes to enter their abode. Some people don't see anything wrong with leaving their earrings in for months at a time, while others insist they have to be taken out and washed weekly. We all know that personal hygiene is vital to our health, so we might as well learn a bit about how we can be even more thorough when taking care of ourselves. Especially during recent years, as we've been dealing with a global pandemic, it has become more important than ever to practice good hygiene. And according to Health Direct, personal hygiene can protect us from COVID-19 and other diseases, diarrhea and gastroenteritis, respiratory infections, staph infections, worm-related conditions, scabies, trachoma, athlete's foot, tooth decay and more. That list sounds terrifying, so I don't know about you, but I would rather spend a few extra minutes keeping myself clean every day than deal with any of those conditions. #4 The vagina is self-cleaning.

View more comments There are certain standards when it comes to personal hygiene habits. One that we all know is that we should be brushing our teeth for 2 minutes, at least twice a day. Now, where people's opinions begin to differ is whether they should be brushing their teeth before or after breakfast in the morning. Some people argue that their teeth become dirty as soon as they eat, so it's best to wait. But others believe that the morning brush is to clean our mouths from the hours of sleep we just had, so we should get right to it after waking up. Here's what dentists recommend: brush your teeth before breakfast. As Dr. Niall Sloan, of Sloan Dental in the UK, writes on his site, "Bacteria begin to metabolize sugars into acids almost instantly. Bacterial biofilms in your mouth have been maturing overnight in a reduced saliva environment gearing up for sugars in the morning. Clearing bacteria out before the introduction of food makes far more sense than brushing after they have already soaked up sugars to produce acids that cause cavities." His sentiments are also echoed on Medical News Today and Medicine Net, so if you're a post-breakfast brusher, I'm sorry to disappoint. It looks like we can all stand to learn a bit more about personal hygiene. #7 Wash your glasses, in the sink, with warm (not hot!) water and gentle, non-antibacterial soap. Your face secretes oil, and a lot of it gathers in your eyebrows. It will pool in the cracks between the frame and lenses, gather in noxious scummy boogers on the nosepads, and in the hinges as well. Once it’s built up, no matter how hard you try to clean your lenses, you’ll just smudge them up because of that oil. The face oil will oxidize and turn bright green, then yellow-ish, then brown. It smells TERRIBLE. I wash mine about once every two weeks with a drop of dawn dish soap and warm water.
Also, wash your glasses cleaning cloth at least as frequently. They get infused with nasty face oil. Don’t use fabric softener on the cleaning cloth, as it will make the cloth oily in the dryer and you’ll just be smearing new, fancy oil on your lenses. Hand washing your cloth in the sink works just fine.

View more comments Now, let's talk about another controversial topic: showering every day. I have always been taught and assumed that a shower a day keeps the doctor away (or something like that). But according to Medical News Today, "From a strictly medical perspective, it is not necessary for most people to shower this frequently." They explain that, "Showering cleans the skin and removes dead skin cells to help clear the pores and allow the skin cells to function. It washes away bacteria and other irritants that could cause rashes and other skin problems. However, the main reason why people shower as much as they do is that it helps them meet social standards of cleanliness and personal appearance. Meeting these standards helps people feel at home in their working and social environments and their bodies." #10 If someone offers you breath mints, take them without question. aboo4235 Report Final score: 162points POST Anita Ledford Anita Ledford Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago That is BAD advice.

I know some folks are concerned about their foot odor. Others feel that a door mat is sufficient in wiping one’s feet at the entryway.

View more comments So, of course, if you have been sweating during the day or have been exposed to unsanitary conditions, at work or otherwise, it is important to lather up. In the summer, when conditions are often more humid and warmer than the rest of the year, you might also need to shower more frequently. But if it's a calm winter day with dry, cool weather, and you have not been particularly physically active, you might be able to skip showering. In fact, Medical News Today explains that showering can even become counterproductive if it's done too often, to the point where skin becomes dry and damaged. It's important to also remember that showering depletes resources, as it requires clean water and washes chemicals into our water sources, so it's best to keep them as short as possible and to exercise discretion when taking them. It's not worth the wasting of water if you have barely moved all day, and you could just wait until tomorrow to shower. #13 Cutting out soda is probably one of the best things you can do for your dental health.

View more comments Another place on the body that is unfortunately often neglected is our feet. If you've ever taken off your shoes and been slapped in the face by the stench, I'm sure you know that our feet are capable of harboring lots of bacteria. According to Dr. Robert K. Lee, chief of podiatric foot and ankle surgery at UCLA Medical Center, we should be actively scrubbing and exfoliating our feet to keep them from growing bacteria. And aside from the risk of missing out on a second date when a potential partner smells our feet from a mile away, we can eliminate certain health risks by keeping our feet clean as well. Ever heard of a little thing called a staph infection? If our feet are not kept squeaky clean, we are greatly increasing our risk for a nasty infection if we end up with an open wound, even a small one we may not notice at first glance. #16 Wash and change your bed sheets and your pillow cases.

This is a common fungal infection that people often pick up by walking barefoot in moist, public places, such as locker rooms, as the name suggests. Although it can be acquired through simply walking through an area, athlete's foot is certainly no walk in the park. It can cause many unpleasant symptoms such as itchiness, a scaly rash, flaky skin, cracking on the soles of the feet, and it can even spread to a person's hands, nails and groin area via their hands or a towel. If you're prone to having sweaty feet, be sure to wash them often and dry them well. This should help them not only smell better but also protect you from a nasty fungus or infection that you certainly won't enjoy. #19 Make sure your clothes get completely dry. You'll smell like mildew otherwise.

View more comments In a perfect world, we would all be in peak personal hygiene condition at all times. But unfortunately, life just doesn't work that way. And one thing that can often make it much harder for us to maintain personal hygiene is struggling with mental health issues. If a person can barely even get out of bed in the morning, it can be a lot to ask them to shower, brush their teeth multiple times, floss, moisturize, deodorize, wash and brush their hair, etc. Sometimes it can all just become too much. Thankfully, there are a few shortcuts that one can take that are not intended to be permanent solutions, but they might be able to get you through a particularly tough time without sacrificing your physical health. SOVA Pitt recommends that individuals who are struggling keep products like dry shampoo, deep conditioner, and baby wipes on hand to help them at least practice the bare minimum in staying clean. #22 Deodorant is water resistant. It won't wash off by just splashing water on it. You need to give it a good scrub with soap to get it all the way off your skin. If you don't get all the old deodorant washed away, the new deodorant you apply won't work. It has to be fresh deodorant on clean skin. notreallylucy , No Revisions Report Final score: 111points POST Izzy Curer Izzy Curer Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago (edited) And don't just scrub, spend as much time scrub-rinsing under the water to get it all off.

Whenever people tell me they don't floss I ask them, just as an experiment, to try flossing one of their back teeth and sniffing the floss afterwards. The eye-watering stench they will inevitably encounter is the smell of the leftover bits of food that are rotting between their teeth. I then tell them that every person they talk to, every person they kiss, gets a whiff of that putrid, rotten food smell whenever they open their mouths. The prospect of the almost unbearably painful dental procedures they will have to get due to a lack of oral hygiene doesn't motivate most people, but the stench does.
So floss. machu_pikacchu Report Final score: 100points POST tara tara Community Member • points posts comments upvotes 1 month ago "I made a resolution to floss, and I did it. 12:01, January first, BAM! Blood everywhere.". 59 59points reply View More Replies... View more comments When a full personal hygiene routine is just too much to handle due to depression or other mental health issues, it can be easier to take a bath instead of a shower. Getting to sit down and relax can be much easier than standing the entire time. Even a "sink bath", or using a washcloth and some soap to scrub the "dirtiest" areas of your body can help. If brushing your teeth multiple times a day can't be managed, be sure to have mouthwash and gum, mints or breath spray on hand. Deodorants and sprays can be useful as well, if you were not able to take a shower before heading out to work or school. SOVA Pitt also recommends purchasing a new hygiene product to give yourself motivation to lather up and try it out. If you have a new shampoo that is your favorite scent, you might be more inclined to wash your hair than you were when you knew exactly what to expect. #25 If you wear earrings, take them off and clean frequently.

Most people lean their head backward to rinse, which washes their hair products all down their back. If you wash with soap after, no biggie, but many people wash their body first, typically while letting the conditioner sit in their hair for a few minutes and thus rinsing after.
In which case, you step out of the shower with hair product residue all down your back and a*s. For some people and products, it's fine; for others, it causes skin irritation and acne.
It should always be your first step in trying to eliminate bacne, just in case it's the cause for you.

People Are Sharing Hygiene Tips And Tricks Everyone Should Know And Here’ s 35 Of The Best Ones
Adelaide Ross andMindaugas Balčiauskas
Publish Not your original work? Add source We've all heard it a million times: wash behind your ears. Floss every day. Dry shampoo is not a substitute for washing your hair, and you should probably be washing your hands even more often than you do. Personal hygiene is not something to take lightly, as it is vital to our health and our social lives. Nobody wants to cuddle up on the couch next to someone who reeks of garlic breath or sweaty gym clothes! But even though hygiene is second nature to most of us, it's never a bad idea to have a reminder to wash your bedsheets every week and change your toothbrush head every few months. Below, we've gathered some of the most important hygiene tips people have been sharing in this Reddit thread, so all of you pandas can stay healthy, happy and smelling fresh as a daisy. Keep reading to also find an interview with Dr. Mike Czubiak, host of the Hygiene Superstar podcast, to hear his thoughts on the topic. Be sure to upvote all of the hygiene habits that you think are underrated, and feel free to leave any of your own recommendations in the comments below. Then if you're interested in reading another Bored Panda article noting the importance of showering every day, check out this story next.

View more comments To gain some insight on this topic, we reached out to Dr. Mike Czubiak, a practicing general dentist in California and host of the Hygiene Superstar podcast. First, we wanted to hear what inspired him to start his podcast in the first place. "I started the podcast to educate dental hygienists and preventive dentists on the crucial rule that they play in the health of their patients," Dr. Mike told Bored Panda. "We have always done good, but we can do better." We also asked him if he could remind our readers why dental hygiene is so important. "Dental hygiene is important because the bacteria that grow and mature in our mouths and the inflammation they cause are connected to cancer, heart disease and even COVID," he explained. "If your gums aren't healthy, you are 9x more apt to die from COVID." #2 In the kitchen: after you touch raw meat, wash your hands before touching anything else period. icecream_dragon , Angele J Report Final score: 228points POST 2picklesinabun 2picklesinabun Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago I sure hope everyone does this one 70 70points reply View More Replies... View more comments We also asked Dr. Mike if he could note some of the dental hygiene practices that are often underrated or overlooked. "Flossing is pretty much a waste of time," he shared. Before you feel like you're off the hook, keep reading. "I have not found any research suggesting that flossing is effective. Interdental brushes like GUM soft picks and oral irrigators like Waterpiks are much more effective," Dr. Mike explained. He also left readers with a task, "Go to Pubmed or Google scholar and search scholarly articles for periodontal disease and then name a disease. See how bodily diseases are connected to our mouth. Brushing your teeth is good, brushing up on knowledge is better!"

But beyond the absolute basics such as showering every day, washing your hands after using the bathroom and before eating, wearing deodorant daily, and brushing your teeth twice a day, some people have differing opinions on what else is necessary. For example, shoes on inside the home is not an issue at all to some people, while others would rather burn down their house than allow dirty shoes to enter their abode. Some people don't see anything wrong with leaving their earrings in for months at a time, while others insist they have to be taken out and washed weekly. We all know that personal hygiene is vital to our health, so we might as well learn a bit about how we can be even more thorough when taking care of ourselves. Especially during recent years, as we've been dealing with a global pandemic, it has become more important than ever to practice good hygiene. And according to Health Direct, personal hygiene can protect us from COVID-19 and other diseases, diarrhea and gastroenteritis, respiratory infections, staph infections, worm-related conditions, scabies, trachoma, athlete's foot, tooth decay and more. That list sounds terrifying, so I don't know about you, but I would rather spend a few extra minutes keeping myself clean every day than deal with any of those conditions. #4 The vagina is self-cleaning.

View more comments There are certain standards when it comes to personal hygiene habits. One that we all know is that we should be brushing our teeth for 2 minutes, at least twice a day. Now, where people's opinions begin to differ is whether they should be brushing their teeth before or after breakfast in the morning. Some people argue that their teeth become dirty as soon as they eat, so it's best to wait. But others believe that the morning brush is to clean our mouths from the hours of sleep we just had, so we should get right to it after waking up. Here's what dentists recommend: brush your teeth before breakfast. As Dr. Niall Sloan, of Sloan Dental in the UK, writes on his site, "Bacteria begin to metabolize sugars into acids almost instantly. Bacterial biofilms in your mouth have been maturing overnight in a reduced saliva environment gearing up for sugars in the morning. Clearing bacteria out before the introduction of food makes far more sense than brushing after they have already soaked up sugars to produce acids that cause cavities." His sentiments are also echoed on Medical News Today and Medicine Net, so if you're a post-breakfast brusher, I'm sorry to disappoint. It looks like we can all stand to learn a bit more about personal hygiene. #7 Wash your glasses, in the sink, with warm (not hot!) water and gentle, non-antibacterial soap. Your face secretes oil, and a lot of it gathers in your eyebrows. It will pool in the cracks between the frame and lenses, gather in noxious scummy boogers on the nosepads, and in the hinges as well. Once it’s built up, no matter how hard you try to clean your lenses, you’ll just smudge them up because of that oil. The face oil will oxidize and turn bright green, then yellow-ish, then brown. It smells TERRIBLE. I wash mine about once every two weeks with a drop of dawn dish soap and warm water.
Also, wash your glasses cleaning cloth at least as frequently. They get infused with nasty face oil. Don’t use fabric softener on the cleaning cloth, as it will make the cloth oily in the dryer and you’ll just be smearing new, fancy oil on your lenses. Hand washing your cloth in the sink works just fine.

View more comments Now, let's talk about another controversial topic: showering every day. I have always been taught and assumed that a shower a day keeps the doctor away (or something like that). But according to Medical News Today, "From a strictly medical perspective, it is not necessary for most people to shower this frequently." They explain that, "Showering cleans the skin and removes dead skin cells to help clear the pores and allow the skin cells to function. It washes away bacteria and other irritants that could cause rashes and other skin problems. However, the main reason why people shower as much as they do is that it helps them meet social standards of cleanliness and personal appearance. Meeting these standards helps people feel at home in their working and social environments and their bodies." #10 If someone offers you breath mints, take them without question. aboo4235 Report Final score: 162points POST Anita Ledford Anita Ledford Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago That is BAD advice.

View more comments So, of course, if you have been sweating during the day or have been exposed to unsanitary conditions, at work or otherwise, it is important to lather up. In the summer, when conditions are often more humid and warmer than the rest of the year, you might also need to shower more frequently. But if it's a calm winter day with dry, cool weather, and you have not been particularly physically active, you might be able to skip showering. In fact, Medical News Today explains that showering can even become counterproductive if it's done too often, to the point where skin becomes dry and damaged. It's important to also remember that showering depletes resources, as it requires clean water and washes chemicals into our water sources, so it's best to keep them as short as possible and to exercise discretion when taking them. It's not worth the wasting of water if you have barely moved all day, and you could just wait until tomorrow to shower. #13 Cutting out soda is probably one of the best things you can do for your dental health.

View more comments Another place on the body that is unfortunately often neglected is our feet. If you've ever taken off your shoes and been slapped in the face by the stench, I'm sure you know that our feet are capable of harboring lots of bacteria. According to Dr. Robert K. Lee, chief of podiatric foot and ankle surgery at UCLA Medical Center, we should be actively scrubbing and exfoliating our feet to keep them from growing bacteria. And aside from the risk of missing out on a second date when a potential partner smells our feet from a mile away, we can eliminate certain health risks by keeping our feet clean as well. Ever heard of a little thing called a staph infection? If our feet are not kept squeaky clean, we are greatly increasing our risk for a nasty infection if we end up with an open wound, even a small one we may not notice at first glance. #16 Wash and change your bed sheets and your pillow cases.

This is a common fungal infection that people often pick up by walking barefoot in moist, public places, such as locker rooms, as the name suggests. Although it can be acquired through simply walking through an area, athlete's foot is certainly no walk in the park. It can cause many unpleasant symptoms such as itchiness, a scaly rash, flaky skin, cracking on the soles of the feet, and it can even spread to a person's hands, nails and groin area via their hands or a towel. If you're prone to having sweaty feet, be sure to wash them often and dry them well. This should help them not only smell better but also protect you from a nasty fungus or infection that you certainly won't enjoy. #19 Make sure your clothes get completely dry. You'll smell like mildew otherwise.

View more comments In a perfect world, we would all be in peak personal hygiene condition at all times. But unfortunately, life just doesn't work that way. And one thing that can often make it much harder for us to maintain personal hygiene is struggling with mental health issues. If a person can barely even get out of bed in the morning, it can be a lot to ask them to shower, brush their teeth multiple times, floss, moisturize, deodorize, wash and brush their hair, etc. Sometimes it can all just become too much. Thankfully, there are a few shortcuts that one can take that are not intended to be permanent solutions, but they might be able to get you through a particularly tough time without sacrificing your physical health. SOVA Pitt recommends that individuals who are struggling keep products like dry shampoo, deep conditioner, and baby wipes on hand to help them at least practice the bare minimum in staying clean. #22 Deodorant is water resistant. It won't wash off by just splashing water on it. You need to give it a good scrub with soap to get it all the way off your skin. If you don't get all the old deodorant washed away, the new deodorant you apply won't work. It has to be fresh deodorant on clean skin. notreallylucy , No Revisions Report Final score: 111points POST Izzy Curer Izzy Curer Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago (edited) And don't just scrub, spend as much time scrub-rinsing under the water to get it all off. Soap is awesome, but it's useless without water and scrubbing. 31 31points reply View more comments #23 When you leave a set of public loos don’t open the outer door with your bare, freshly-washed hands. If you have to touch a handle, cover your hand with a bit of clothing(eg hem of shirt) if necessary. Never forget that depressingly large numbers of people still fail to wash their hands thoroughly, or even at all (yeuch!) after using the loo.

Some places even put the garbage right by the door so you can toss the towel as you leave. 53 53points reply View More Replies... View more comments #24 FLOSS.
Whenever people tell me they don't floss I ask them, just as an experiment, to try flossing one of their back teeth and sniffing the floss afterwards. The eye-watering stench they will inevitably encounter is the smell of the leftover bits of food that are rotting between their teeth. I then tell them that every person they talk to, every person they kiss, gets a whiff of that putrid, rotten food smell whenever they open their mouths. The prospect of the almost unbearably painful dental procedures they will have to get due to a lack of oral hygiene doesn't motivate most people, but the stench does.
So floss. machu_pikacchu Report Final score: 100points POST tara tara Community Member • points posts comments upvotes 1 month ago "I made a resolution to floss, and I did it. 12:01, January first, BAM! Blood everywhere.". 59 59points reply View More Replies... View more comments When a full personal hygiene routine is just too much to handle due to depression or other mental health issues, it can be easier to take a bath instead of a shower. Getting to sit down and relax can be much easier than standing the entire time. Even a "sink bath", or using a washcloth and some soap to scrub the "dirtiest" areas of your body can help. If brushing your teeth multiple times a day can't be managed, be sure to have mouthwash and gum, mints or breath spray on hand. Deodorants and sprays can be useful as well, if you were not able to take a shower before heading out to work or school. SOVA Pitt also recommends purchasing a new hygiene product to give yourself motivation to lather up and try it out. If you have a new shampoo that is your favorite scent, you might be more inclined to wash your hair than you were when you knew exactly what to expect. #25 If you wear earrings, take them off and clean frequently.

New-At-Everything Report Final score: 72points POST April Caron April Caron Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago If you really love those stinky shoes… wash them and dry them THOUROUGHLY, if you can. Regardless of being able to wash them or not… buy some activated charcoal for your shoes… some loose activated charcoal (used in fish tank filters, so find it at a pet store - or online). Take two tube stocks you don’t care about and fill them with the charcoal. Pop then in the stinky shoes and forget about them for at least a month (two or three is better). 9/10 times, you can salvage them. If they still smell after a 3 month round of activated charcoal sitting in them… throw them away. 20 20points reply View More Replies... View more comments #34 If you have bacne (ie back acne), lean your head forward to rinse your hair products OR wash your back thoroughly with soap after rinsing your conditioner/last product.
Most people lean their head backward to rinse, which washes their hair products all down their back. If you wash with soap after, no biggie, but many people wash their body first, typically while letting the conditioner sit in their hair for a few minutes and thus rinsing after.
In which case, you step out of the shower with hair product residue all down your back and a*s. For some people and products, it's fine; for others, it causes skin irritation and acne.
It should always be your first step in trying to eliminate bacne, just in case it's the cause for you.
