Icthy after I shower
You are currently reading a thread in /adv/ - Advice
Why am I always extremely itchy after I shower? I thought the issue was dry skin so I now take cold showers. I tried using body lotion and it helped a little bit but I was still extremely itchy. I don't have eczema or any skin conditions so I don't know what's causing this. It's gotten to the point where I dread showering. Has anyone else had this problem?
Stop being a punk and shower with cold water, that was my solution to that prob. Used to get red itchy patches after hot shower

Yes I have this too sometimes. It's not too bad really but definitely dry skin. What I found helping is not showering too hot, and not too often.

Maybe it's ur soap

Seconding this. Buy some hippy soap without a lot of chemicals or fragrances and see how that treats you. I have to buy that shit to keep my skin from getting irritated, too.

Sheeeeeeeeit. The thing it I tried only using soap on my nether reigions, armpits and face (for a short while) but that didn't change anything. Do they have moisturizing soaps? I'll definitely give this a try.

At least once a day, twice if I've cycled or played soccer.

Shower less often

You disgust me. The most I shower is twice a day and that isn't a regular a occurrence.

No I'm serious
shower less often or you'll wash the oils off your skin or whatever. I don't really understand how that works but google it
you can still wash yourself every day, use a washcloth
