So today's post is not going to be as interesting as the last few - no pictures this time :( Although, I could try to figure out some pictures for tips next tuesday...hmmmmm.
Anyways today I was gonna give you guys some ideas about how to save and conserve water in the shower while also helping yourself :)
1. Try to take shorter showers. While this may seem very basic, a lot of people actually take very long showers. I standardly take 10 minute showers and rarely make it shorter than that. However, I know many people who take longer showers. Try to cut it down. Every minute you are in the shower, you are using up a precious resource: water.
How does one take shorter showers? simple doing things like washing your hair every other day instead of everyday can help save water. Also, washing your hair every other day is also better for your hair as it does not strip your hair of all its natural oils as often. Another thing you can do is not rinsing and repeating. Your hair does not need to be rinsed and repeated.
2. Rinse your hair in cold water.
This helps make your hair shinier while also saving the energy it takes to warm up the water.
3. Stop the water when your soaping/shampooing. Even if it is for a minute or two, this saves a lot of water. Most showers use about 7 gallons of water a minute. Stopping the shower for a bit can help save quite a bit of water.
4. Take Showers instead of bath.
This one is self explanatory. showers use less water than baths. A bath once in a while is still okay, just try not to do it everyday :)
Okay, this is all :)
Thanks for reading and Happy Tuesday!
