Is frequent bathing good for your skin?

Now people's living conditions are better. Taking a bath frequently is not only to ensure our body's cleanliness, but more often for the purpose of maintaining the skin. Many women think so. If they constantly remove harmful substances discharged from the body, their skin will definitely become whiter. So, is this really the case? Is taking a bath frequently good for your skin? Let's take a closer look at this aspect below.

Taking a bath every day helps improve blood circulation. However, it is not advisable to wash your hair every day. Three days is the most appropriate time to prevent the hair from becoming dry and yellow due to lack of oil. But what you need to pay attention to when taking a bath every day is how to take a bath scientifically:

1. The water temperature for bathing should be appropriate. The hotter the water temperature is, the less effective it is in killing bacteria. The water temperature is too hot and the steam is too strong, which is not good for the skin to become too red and hot. Frequent use of overheated water to wash your face and take a bath can also cause skin aging. Generally, the water temperature is best controlled at 40 to 50 degrees.

2. Pay attention to the direction of scrubbing when taking a bath. The correct direction of scrubbing should be along the direction of the pores, because the pores are open during bathing. If you clean along the pores, dirt will not enter through the pores and pollute the skin.

3. Don’t rub hard when taking a bath. It is unscientific to rub hard when taking a bath. On the surface of the human body, there is a layer of dead skin covering the entire body. It is less than 0.1 mm thick, but its function is very important. It effectively blocks the invasion of pathogenic bacteria, fungi and health-damaging radiation at all times, and is a natural line of defense to protect human health. The replacement rate of these dead skin cells is very slow and varies with different parts of the body. The fastest replacement rate is the elbows, which takes 10 days, and the inner upper arms take 100 days. If you scrub vigorously while taking a shower, this layer of dead skin will be destroyed, and new dead skin will not be produced quickly, which is equivalent to automatically withdrawing this natural line of defense that protects health.

4. When bathing, you should wash your hair first and then your body, because when washing your hair, the water rushes on your body, causing the pores of the body to gradually open due to the heat, "spitting out" impurities, thus thoroughly cleansing your skin.

I think everyone should be clear about whether taking a bath frequently is good for the skin. Taking a bath regularly is good for our skin and has many advantages. However, in some cases it is not suitable to take a bath frequently. For example, if you suffer from a disease related to ulcers, you cannot take a bath frequently. If you insist on taking a bath, it will easily affect the condition. This is something we should pay attention to.
