Introduction

What if you don’t shower for a year? Well of course, nobody would want to try it! First things first, not showering is just plain disgusting. We should do it every night in order to wash the bacteria off our skin.

Advantages

There are actually advantages of not showering. Showering can wash away the bacteria as well as our body’s natural oils, and those oils are what keep our skin moist. If we wash them off, then our skin will become dry may start blistering. Showering can also kill the healthy kind of bacteria that keeps your skin and body healthy. When you shower, you not only wash the dirt off, but you can also disturb the bacterial balance, which basically means that you could get skin infections.

What Happens If You Don’t Shower For a Year?

You first thing that will happen is the stench, which comes from the bacteria, sweat, and dead skin cells that remain on your body, if you don’t scrub them off. You and so will everybody around you will smell it, and it can appear on your body in just 2 days. A week later you could get a condition called hyperkeratosis.

There will also be fungi and brown bumps. Ew, gross!🤢🤢 Without proper skincare, your skin will either quickly become really oily or really dry, but it doesn’t matter, because both will lead to an overgrowth of yeast and bacteria. If you just get a little cut or scrape, it’s pretty much just an open door for bacteria to enter in your body. You will also get major itching and dandruff in your head. The next horrific thing is: acne. Before you know it, pimples will be popping up everywhere on your body.
