Ashton and Mila say we don't need to bathe every day. Here's what experts say

Daily showering, especially in the United States, seems to be ingrained in many people's psyche. You might shower right after you wake up as part of your morning routine, or maybe you like to freshen up and bathe before bed.

For adults who stay inside most of the time, like those of us working from home, Larson said you don't need daily showers. You're in the same environment and not coming in contact with unfamiliar germs that need to be washed away. Also considering the pandemic, we are seeing a lot more people using antibacterial hand sanitizers like Purell, and this may not be great for your skin if you aren't careful, said Dr. Arielle Nagler, assistant professor of dermatology at New York University's Grossman School of Medicine.

Bathing recommendations do vary by age, especially for children. Infants should be cleaned with soap once or twice a week, said Dr. Andrew Doyle, a pediatrician at Wellstar Health System in Marietta, Georgia. This excludes the diaper area, of course, which should be cleaned whenever necessary. Parents should"start those habits for hygiene very early in life with their children and model those for their children and guide them so they can ultimately take control of their health as they grow older," he said.
