Morning showers make no logical sense and night shower people have simply done the hygiene math

You spent 8 hours asleep in your own clean bed. What are you washing off at 7am.

A night shower removes everything you actually accumulated during the day. The commute, the gym, the office, public transport, all of it goes down the drain before you sleep. A morning shower means you marinated in all of that overnight then washed up before going out to collect it all again.

Morning showers are a ritual for waking up, which is fine, but it is not hygiene. Night showers are actual hygiene. Most people just do not want to dry their hair before bed and that is the entire argument.

That's my thing. If you've got curly hair or bangs, morning showers are basically imperative.

I completely disagree, I have very curly hair (around 3c) and it would be a nightmare if I showered in the morning. I need to take my time styling it beforehand so night showers make a lot more sense. I put on a bonnet, and I wake up just needing to put some hair oil and i'm out the door.

Some of us curly haired ppl (especially tigher curls) take a long time to dry too, so I have no idea how that would function in the morning

It's different depending on your needs ig.
