Do you use one or more towels or washcloths?

Do you get worried that you might have dried your face with the same side you dried your butt with?

Top to bottom. Water runs downhill.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 8 points 13 hours ago

Head to toe, my dudes. Any other way is objectively wrong.

[-] invisiblegorilla@sh.itjust.works 12 points 14 hours ago

I start with grit 60, working up to 120, then a 600 for the smoothest finish, then a once over with a buffing pad for a shine that really glows. Always top to bottom.

[-] rustydomino@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Pfft. No wet sanding with 1000, 2000, 4000, 8000. Amateur.

The only difference for me is the order of c's: C4, C1, C2, C3.

[-] spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

Hair, beard, balls and ass.

I stopped drying the rest of my body since apparently I suffer from dry skin or something. Now I air dry.

[-] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

I just have a human sized Dyson air blade. As I step out of the shower, hurricane force winds blow all the water back into it.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

That actually sounds glorious, especially if it makes a ding-a-ling copter on your way out.

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

It’s almost entirely just a progression from top to bottom with the one exception that I do my face first because I need to see properly.

[-] kraftpudding@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

I'm not fucking with these letter but it's: Face, head/hair, torso front, torso back, armpits, head again (long hair), arms if still wet, legs if still wet, feet if still wet.

Anybody not starting with the face is a borderline psychopath imo

Indeed, I don't dry those sections.

[-] OhmsLawn@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Me neither. They dry themselves by the time they need clothes.

[-] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 4 points 21 hours ago

I put on my bathrobe for a couple of minutes. Use the sleeves to dry my head/hair. That's pretty much it.

[-] Greg@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 day ago

Why is that guy wearing underwear if he's just gotten out of the shower? Does he put his underwear on and then dry himself? Am I doing showers wrong?!

[-] Bertuccio@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

No you leave it on in the shower.

[-] 00L10@feddit.org 2 points 15 hours ago

As a fellow nevernude...

[-] 4th_Times_A_Charm@sopuli.xyz 57 points 1 day ago

You're drying yourself off after cleaning yourself. If you cleaned yourself properly, it doesn't matter what you dry first.

[-] Archelon@lemmy.world 97 points 1 day ago

Disagree: if you start at the top and work down, then the wet spots don’t drip down onto the parts you’ve already dried.

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Counterpoint - I dry my legs and feet first as those are the first to cause water to get on the floor. Then I get a bathrobe and finally work on the hair.

[-] 7dev7random7@suppo.fi -3 points 17 hours ago

Question was targeted at men

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Luckily I am a man.

[-] monsieur_hackerman@programming.dev 7 points 15 hours ago

This just in, men don't have hair

[-] 7dev7random7@suppo.fi 1 points 13 hours ago

It was an attempt to joke about it, nothing offensive. Picturing it doing this in that order, with a bathrobe and then having the relaxed time to work on the hair isn't really relatable for me. Also, i never met a men yet who refers to its beard as hair (beard hair vs hair)

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Don't feel bad, my thoughts were similar to yours.

Generally top to bottom but don’t overthink it.

[-] dditty@lemm.ee 3 points 13 hours ago

Yup I'll just chime in to add I dry off while still standing in the shower to minimize wetness on my bathroom mat

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

After drying my hair I just put my clothes on and dry automatically.

[-] Paradachshund@lemmy.today 24 points 1 day ago

Well, usually i take my underwear off first...

I just try to befriend the water and it vanishes.

You mean to tell me y'all aren't just standing in front of a huge, industrial fan to dry off?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 1 day ago

I dry from head to toe. I use two towel, one just for my hair because I have long-ass hair and by the time I'm done drying it, the towel is usually pretty damp so I have another for my body.

Thanks for the LOL kind stranger, it's been a while since going over the comments felt worthwhile like this.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

Generally top to bottom, because otherwise drips from above will rewet areas you tried to dry

[-] not_that_guy05@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

A,B,C,D,E, and F. I use the tag of the towel to determined the use of my towel. Tag always goes bottom right and that means my feet always go there to dry. Divide my towel to 4-5 sections and always use the same spot of the towel for the same parts.

I'm bald

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

From top down. I have a beard, and I use a hot brush to dry and straighten my beard so I don't use a towel on my face.
