1. Bath twice everyday

 Bathing twice everyday is very necessary for our body in order to kill bacteria causing body odour and to clear sweat and sticky dirt on our skin. 

Using a washcloth, soft sponge or loofah with a chemical free soap is the best practical way to have a meaningful bath everyday that will keep every part of your body clean and smelling great.

It is much better to take a bath after every heavy work that induce lots of sweat like exercising, house cleaning or other general sweaty work.

2. Brush your teeth twice every day 

Brushing your teeth at least twice everyday with a fluoride toothpaste will remove every food debris and plaque that cause bad breath and cavities.  

In addition, when you floss your teeth at least once a day, it will help keep your gums healthy and fresh.

It is also advisable to replace your toothbrush every 3 to 4 months to avoid buildup of harmful bacteria and to maintain the functionality of your toothbrush.

3. Shave your  unwanted hairs

Shaving all your unwanted hairs from your private parts to other exposed areas in your body, is one of the best ways to be naturally clean and hygienic everyday.

Shave your hairs at least once every month and ensure you remember to apply after shave creams to soothe your skin and avoid shaving bumps.

If shaving your hairs seems so much work to you,  opt for unscented and non-alcoholic based shaving creams for sensitive skin and get your hairs off quickly and stress free.

4.  Look after your hair

 Hair care is necessary for perfect personal hygiene. 

Brush your hair at least once a day, apply the necessary hair growth serums and wash at least twice every week.

Good hair hygiene will keep your hair looking shiny, long and will also prevent dandruff/lice from ruining them.

Make sure your hair is always accessible to free air and untangled wherever possible.

5. Groom your nails at least once in two weeks

keeping your nails clean and trimmed always prevents bacteria buildup and fungal growth.

Take the time at least once in every two weeks to cut your nails while removing any dirt under the nail bed.

The look and colour of your nails is also a good way to understand your health status and be proactive whenever changes occur.

6. Use deodorant

Deodorants are necessary in order to get rid of sweaty armpit and odour.  

The antiperspirant deodorants are the best choice for controlling excessive sweating and smell.

A good deodorant can last up to 24 hours. 

Ensure to always take a bath before going to bed to clean out most of the deodorant before next application.

7. Don’t wear clothes twice 

The best way to learn how to be clean is not to repeat  clothes or wear dirty clothes.

It certainly doesn’t make sense to take a bath and wear dirty clothes. 

Ensure to also take care of your clothes, wash them using the recommended washing instructions, sundry, fold them properly and keep in a dry place.

8. Eliminate shoe odor 

Eliminate shoe odor by always wearing socks before wearing your shoes to reduce buildup of sweat and bacteria which ultimately cause the odour.
