Grooming and Personal Hygiene
Many Americans bathe or shower at least once a day, more often if they're involved in sports or fitness activities. The American bath or shower involves immersing the body in water and covering it completely with soap lather, often from a deodorant soap. Many Americans use talcum powder after their bath or shower, but virtually all well-groomed Americans use an underarm deodorant before they get dressed. Nearly $2 billion in deodorant is sold every year. Feminine deodorants and douches are also widely used. There are even specialized foot deodorants. Many Americans also wear newly cleaned clothes every day, including underwear, shirts and tops. Next Section: Shaving: Men Everyday Life: Chapter Home
