Get undressed. Lay out your post-shower outfit. Quickly prepare anything else you might need for the day. Take out your shower supplies. Prepare your shampoo, conditioner, soap, powder, deodorant, towel, and anything else that you’ll need. Brush your teeth while the water warms up. Once the water is warm, you can finish brushing your teeth in the shower. Spit out the toothpaste and wash your brush in the shower to save water and time.
If you’re feeling dirty, but you’re in an extreme rush, consider leaving your hair dry altogether. Use a shower cap to keep the moisture out, or simply hold your hair out of the shower stream.
Try using a scrubber or loofah with body wash already applied. This can be a great way to cover surface area. Work symmetrically with both hands, lathering each side of your body at the same time. Lather each side of your chest and torso, under both arms, up both legs – all in tandem, with your hands spread out. This technique also works with lathering your hair quickly, as well as for drying off quickly.
This works best for just a touch-up shave. If your body is very hairy, then you run the risk of clogging the shower drain.
