The pandemic was both good AND bad for personal hygiene. Maybe you put MORE of an emphasis on washing your hands and face, but got a little lax with other stuff, with all that time spent at home.
In a new poll, people were asked what hygiene habits they perform "regularly," and 90% of people said they wash their hands and bathe regularly.
87% routinely brush their teeth, 84% use deodorant or antiperspirant, 83% wash their hair, 81% specifically wash their "intimate areas", and 77% make sure to wash their face and care for their skin.
Then there's a bit of a drop-off. Only 64% of people trim their nails, 62% use mouthwash, and 51% say they floss.
Overall, 57% of women say they have a good understanding of how to maintain their hygiene, while just 42% of men say they get it. And women also spend more time every week on hygiene, including showering and shaving.
