...do you normally face the showerhead...or do you face away and allow the water to hit the back of your head and your back?

Are you male or female?

I suspect more women face the showerhead than men. Just wanna see how a very limited survey works out.

[+3] - Mame - 12/18/2023Nope, I face away from the showerhead. Can't think of anything more uncomfortable than having all that spray in my face. Also, better to wash and rinse your hair facing away.
[+3] - cherrie - 12/19/2023I also face away from the shower to start with to wash my hair. But then I move around as I wash different parts of my body, at times facing the shower, other times facing away.

That is what I think also. But the few people I've asked in real life have gone the way I said...women facing the showerhead and men facing away.

@Frank Apisa,

I face the showerhead as I find it extremely difficult to operate the controls by reaching behind my back. But I don't stay in one position for the whole time I'm showering either.

@Frank Apisa,

Both: I face the showerhead, but also change my position. As for my hair ... it doesn't matter Very Happy

What Walter said. Turning in a half circle is still not too difficult.

We have had several years to practise (I wonder what Frank did instead).

All depends what being washed and/or rinsed, and if I just want to stand under the last of the hot water before getting out.

Well, yes. It's got to be hard to rinse your back while facing the shower head.

I should have said, "primarily face." I, too, turn, but primarily I face away. I should feel a bit guilty for wasting so much water and energy (to heat it), but I do love a long shower in the morning.
