I only shower every 10 days – trolls say it’s gross but I look and feel great
A WOMAN has gone viral after revealing she hops in the shower once every ten days – and doesn’t change the routine when on her period.
Showering – something some might do once or twice a day, sometimes every other day.
But for one woman, Aydan Jane, 23, bathing herself is a task she completes only twice in the space of twenty days, and being on her period doesn’t affect the routine either.
The woman, who’s dubbed herself ”the girl who doesn’t shower & shows her period online”, has become somewhat of a controversial person on the internet, with her videos watched by thousands.
But one such clip in particular has taken the platform by storm.
In the video, which has been viewed close to 3million times, Ayden revealed she hadn’t had a shower in more than week’s time.

But despite what many might think, she said: ”i am living proof that you don’t have to bathe often to look and feel good.”
”I am pretty sure I am not representative of the general public – I would guess the general public showers daily.
”But I’ve never done that,” said Ayrden who once claimed she’s the one to bathe the most frequently in her household.
According to her, the lack of showering also doesn’t cause any unpleasant, lingering smells in her armpits, and the omly difference between the showered Aydan and the ”dirty” Aydan is her hair.

”My hair would be even curlier than this.”
Explaining why she’s made the decision to cut down on her showering routine, the 23-year-old said: ”I would argue it’s better for the environment if we shower less because water’s precious resource.

”And I feel like a lot of American shower a little too often. Like, unless you’re doing a manual labour job and getting really sweaty or covered in grease, you probably don’t need to be showering daily.”
The TikTok user has also been very vocal about having a period and sharing clips of her menstrual blood online in an attempt to de-stigmatise periods.
”We need to de-stigmatise periods. Periods are highly stigmatised and that leads to the invisibility of period poverty.
”One in four girls and menstruators ages 13 to 19 in the United States don’t have access to menstrual products when they need them.”

After having been met with criticism by those who were shocked she didn’t shower on the days she was bleeding, Aydan said: ”Your period does not make you dirty. Periods are not dirty.
”Also important to note that the vagina is self-cleaning, so you don’t have to clean it – cause it cleans itself.”
