Detailed explanation-1: -Sweat in itself is odorless-until it combines with bacteria that’s normally present on the skin. A skipped shower here or there probably won’t trigger body odor, especially if you haven’t been exercising. However, body odor is inevitable the longer you go without a shower, particularly in your armpits and groin.
Detailed explanation-2: -Showering destroys these happy bacterial colonies; they’re completely wiped out by all of our frequent rubbing and scrubbing. And when the bacteria washed off by soap repopulate, they tend to favour microbes which produce an odor – yes, too-frequent showering may actually make you smell more.
Detailed explanation-3: -Water is a good quick rinse off and refresh but you most likely would still smell and have the dirt and bacteria on your body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Skipping your shower could lead to an excess of dead skin cell buildup, says Amy Wechsler, a New York City dermatologist. Hyperkeratosis, which is the thickening of the outer layer of the skin, would undoubtedly occur. Rashes and itchy irritation will occur.
