19 Hygiene Habits You Should Break The Habit

Using public showers barefooted

Flip-flops exist for a reason. Bacteria, fungi, and mold can form on the shower floor when perspiration, hair, and urine are present. One method to contract ringworm, athlete’s foot, and nail fungus, to name a few ailments that are notoriously challenging to treat, is to go barefoot in a public shower.

Reuse towels

After a few showers, it’s typical to use the same towel again before washing it. However, towels that have been used a lot—or once in the gym—should be washed right away. Furthermore, they should never be shared because they are a perfect breeding ground for bacteria and human waste. Sharing sweaty towels can spread infectious diseases and serious skin issues.
