Some everyday habits can stir big conversations, especially when someone admits something surprising. That’s what happened when a woman named Allison shared her shower routine on TikTok. Her honesty left people both nodding in agreement and shaking their heads.
Allison, 27, explained that she showers only once or twice a week. She said that if she gets in the shower, she feels she must wash her hair too. And since she doesn’t want to wash her hair every day, she simply avoids showering most days.
The turning point came when she admitted she has gone up to five days without a shower. Her video quickly went viral, gathering millions of views and thousands of comments. Some viewers said they related to her, especially on slow days spent at home.
Others strongly disagreed and felt daily showering is necessary. A few commenters said the debate surprised them, while others joked that they couldn’t believe she shared this so openly. But Allison didn’t let the criticism bother her.
In a follow-up video, she said many people shower less often than others think—they just don’t talk about it. She added that she doesn’t smell and doesn’t feel the need to wash her hair more often, so her routine works for her.
Her story sparked a simple reminder: everyone has their own way of caring for themselves, and sometimes the smallest habits reveal just how different we all are.
