I want to take my brain and implant it in a robot so that I'm a cyborg without the need for hygiene. Maybe by the year 2030.

it would work good. part of the reason is I hate seeing myself naked, so driving through a car wash.... sure. I can go with that. it would be good for my BDD

I hate the feeling of being naked. That's one of the things I dread about having to get undressed and take a shower. I always keep my clothes in the bathroom so I can dress right away.

I like floral or fruity scents. Something fresh to defeat the smell from my body.

Agree, I hate to be naked too and always put my clothes inside the bathroom. I don't get why some people able to get out from the bathroom wearing towel. Car wash or magical instant cleaning product would be nice.

another cool idea is if you could just shed skin like a snake when it was time to shower

of course, their would be a mess to clean up afterwards, but gotta be better than being under the water

I struggle to shower sometimes. When I’m depressed I might go a few days without taking one or changing clothes. I also don’t like seeing myself naked.

Teeth brushing has been an issue my whole life. I’ve always struggled with that. Sometimes I go without doing it. I know that’s bad but there’s something I can’t stand about the act of brushing my teeth even though they feel better once they’re done being brushed.

There are days when I don’t feel like showering. But usually it’s just not an option. I work with public so no way I can be around people unwashed. But occasionally skipping it is not a big deal. There are times when I am just too tired to do it. I don’t think I ever skip more than a day though

Brushing my teeth is not my favorite task, but do it and occasionally fall asleep on the couch and don’t brush my teeth until the next day. Shower daily except occasionally miss a day on the weekend when just staying home and not venturing outside. Really like the smell of my shampoo and conditioner so that helps. Maybe someday something will be invented that make brushing your teeth easier. For me an electric toothbrush with a timer that beeps when each section is done helps me since I have little patience to brush my teeth manually.

The last time I did any self-care was Friday. I did it cause I had an appointment. I didn't have time for it this weekend. And I didn't have the energy. Often, I am too tired.

If only one person was going to use it then it might be a good idea. The brushes would be good for exfoliating the skin. Then again if hundreds of people used this each day my mind boggles with what manner of bacteria would reside in those brushes including all other surfaces.
