I do a quick rinse, then have my first, soapy hairwashing bubbley bath.
I drain about half the water, and rinse my hair under the tap as the new, warm water rushes in.
Then, after a nice soak (with occasional warm-ups), I set my book down, use my foot to turn on the shower, and drain the tub while the hot water rushes over me.
A bathtub with some sort of heating element would be luscious. It would also be dangerous, because I don't think I'd ever leave once I got in.
I bath, then I have a shower, to rinse thoroughly. I grew up in a house with a bathtub only, so I always feel cleaner after a bath. But my baths are never terribly long, because I hate the prun-y feeling.
I'm an every-other-day hair washer so I easily tub half the time.
When I want a bath but I only have time for a shower, a put the plug in during the shower, so at least my feet get a bath. Bathing the feet provides a suprising amount of relaxation...
I can easily spend 5 hours in the tub. I got one of those bath rack thingies for my birthday, so I may be able to last longer nowMy get clean baths are much like PM's (not terribly shocking to me). But for spa day it's bath then shower.
I normally wash my hair in the sink- the current abode has a large sink in the bathroom which is okay for that, and no shower. If it had a shower, I'd wash my hair there.
Geez, I never had enough patience to really fill the tub... all my baths used to be kid baths, where you put a few scant inches in and scrub a lot.
I was going to mention those but thought I'd make my mom sound cheap. 40-gallon baths are strictly entertainment for me, as well as 20-minute showers. Normally I wash face, feet, armpits and groin and get outta there.
I haven't taken a bath for years for cleaning purposes. I generally shower a couple times a day.
The spa is my friend. At the end of almost every day DH and I relax for a while in the spa outside. We have a drink and discuss the day. Not for very long, perhaps 15-20 minutes just washing off the day. In the summer we use the cooler pool for the same purpose. It is my favorite time of day.
