8 Celebrities Who Don’t See the Point of Showering Every Day
Showering too often might make your hair look more greasy, dry out your skin and even affect your reproductive health. And although we’re used to seeing celebrities who always look flawless, many of them admit they believe bathing regularly may do more harm than good. In fact, some of our favorite stars can go days without a shower and others only wash certain body parts.
1. Robert Pattinson
The actor known for his role in the Twilight Saga film series doesn’t think it’s necessary to wash your hair on a daily basis. In fact, he admitted to not washing his hair for a long time. The actor said that he “probably [has gone six weeks without washing his hair.] I don’t know. I don’t really see the point in washing your hair.”
2. Kristen Bell
The Forgetting Sarah Marshall star believes you don’t have to take a shower unless you can smell an unpleasant body odor.
“I’m a big fan of waiting for the stink. Once you catch a whiff, that’s biology’s way of letting you know you need to clean it up. There’s a red flag. Honestly, it’s just bacteria; once you get bacteria you gotta be like, ’Get in the tub or the shower.’ I wait for the stink”, she shared.
3. Charlize Theron
The Oscar winner is known for her glamorous style, but she claims she can go seven days without taking a shower. “I’m a tough girl and I can not shower for a week — I’m fine with that”, she revealed.
4. Taylor Swift
Our feet produce 2 pints of sweat per day, so it’s better to wash them each time you take a shower. But the Fearless singer doesn’t think it’s necessary. She said in an interview that she doesn’t actively wash her legs in the shower because she “shaves” them and believes that “shaving cream is like soap”.
5. Shia LaBeouf
Many actors have to go through drastic transformations for their roles, and Shia LaBeouf is no exception. In order to get into his character in a film Fury he didn’t shower for weeks while on the set.
6. Jake Gyllenhaal
The Brokeback Mountain star believes that not showering every day is actually better for your skin. “More and more, I find bathing to be less necessary, at times. I do believe that good manners and bad breath get you nowhere. So I do that. But I do also think that there’s a whole world of not bathing that is also really helpful for skin maintenance, and we naturally clean ourselves”, he explained.
7. Ashton Kutcher
You probably heard that Ashton Kutcher and his wife Mila Kunis don’t bathe their kids unless they look dirty. The What Happens in Vegas star shared that he also doesn’t wash his whole body on a daily basis. “I wash my armpits and my crotch daily, and nothing else ever. I got a bar of Lever 2000 that delivers every time. Nothing else”, he revealed.
8. Kim Kardashian
Just like Robert Pattinson, the reality-TV star only washes her hair every five days. “For my hair, I don’t wash it every day. We start out with a blowout on day one, then we go into a messier vibe the next day, and then we flat iron it and do a really sleek look on day three since that requires a little oil in the hair. Day four could be a slicked-back ponytail, and on the fifth day is when you wash it”, she shared.
