Bathrooms - Going Back to Basics

Bathrooms went from one extreme to the other - a spider-infested outdoor loo to high tech steam rooms, power showers and spa baths. And as our bathrooms became increasingly sophisticated so did our attitude to our looks. In the past couple of decades, despite the impact of the feminists in the   sixties and seventies, the pressures on women to look perfect has only grown. We spend more time in our bathrooms than ever before getting rid of every stray hair, examining each wrinkle and investing hours on various beauty regimes before we even consider facing the world.

Bathrooms: Don't Hide in Yours

But the amount of time and money we spend on these rigorous routines in order to look perfect is destroying the quality of our lives. We may feel we look the part, or that the more time we spend in bathrooms the more confident we are about ourselves. But grooming can become a routine that you're chained to - and can even take over your life. Breaking free from the beauty routines and using bathrooms for minutes rather than hours can make you feel liberated.

Bathrooms: Time to Break Free

One woman told her story of going cold turkey in the Daily Mail. She was chained to an on-going beauty regime, spending hours in salons and bathrooms. The woman was obsessed with everything from hair dye, hair removal and make-up Her routine at home in bathrooms and in beauty salons became so exhaustive that it became a burden. She felt she couldn't even meet friends in the park before spending hours in the bathroom. And the more treatments she had, the more she had to maintain them. Being of Greek origins, the woman had curly thick hair, and hair on her body and face. Bathrooms became places where she'd spend hours pruning herself to the Western ideal.

Bathrooms: Free from the Regime

The woman felt trapped in bathrooms, stuck on a 'treadmill of treatments'. Giving up the treatments for a month and just using bathrooms for washing was a liberating experience for her. The gruelling beauty regime had impacted on her character, leaving her uptight. She came to the point where she felt tired of the judgemental society that placed so much value on looks, pushing women to waste hours in their bathrooms.
