Why Fabric Shower Curtains Rock

Friday, October 12th, 2007

If you’ve never used a fabric shower curtain before than you’re missing out. Fabric shower curtains are some of the most durable and longest lasting around. They’re built tough and are probably the most durable on the market today. Expect to pay slightly more but expect them to last longer and surprisingly they are even easier to clean. If you’re still using the EVA $5 shower curtain then it’s time to switch, give fabric a try and you won’t be disapointed.

How to extend a shower curtain rod

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

This is actually very simple. Most shower curtain rods are made out of metal, aluminum, or very light steel. If you look closely at a shower curtain rod you will notice it has two pieces of metal, with one being slightly bigger than the other. If you want to extend the rod simply hold one end firmly while pulling on the other end. It will take some trial and error in order to make it the perfect length to fit above your shower, but it’s not too difficult.

How to take a shower 101

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

If you’re feeling dirty than this is the post for you. I am going to give you some simple instructions for taking a shower in your bathroom.

Here are some simple instructions on exactly how to take a shower.

1. Go into your shower room, lock the door, and make sure you have everything you will need including soap, shampoo, a shower curtain hung up, and whatever else you feel is necessary.
2. Turn the water on, and adjust the hot and cold water to a comfortable temperature. Be sure to test the temperature before you get in. When it’s at the temperature you want, pull on the shower plug and the should begin to come from the shower head.
3. Remove your clothes and put them into the dirty clothes hamper if you have one. If not, simply put them in a pile near your door, you aren’t going to wear them before the next washing.
4. Carefully step into the shower without slipping or falling.
5. Enjoy the water for a minute; be sure to get all parts of you wet.
6. Rinse your body and shampoo your hair. It is also recommended to condition your hair to remove loose ends. Read the back of your conditioner bottle and leave the conditioner in your hair for the amount of time listed (usually 1-2 minutes). When you’re done, rinse it thoroughly.
7. Run the washcloth under the water while you’re waiting. Put some soap on it and wash all over your body.Make sure to lather over, under and around all body parts including your arm pits and between your toes.
8. Rinse the soap off as well as the conditioner (If you haven’t done so already)
9, Lather some shower gel or soap in your hand or on a wash cloth. Lather it all over. It gives a fresh clean tingling feeling.
10. Rinse everything off.
11. Push the shower plug down so the water stops coming out of the shower head and then shut off the water.
12. Carefully get out of the shower and dry yourself off with a towel. Some people use two towels, one for their hair and one for their body.
13. Finish drying off.
14. Apply any further beauty products or lotions, and shave (the warm water helps loosen and lift hair follicles).
15. Dress and go about your day.

How much do fabric shower curtains cost?

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

Fabric shower curtains are actually some of the most expensive. They’re also some of the most durable and longest lasting shower curtains around. In your average store, expect to spend about $11-$14 US dollars for a fabric shower curtain. If you’re looking to spend a little less you could always go with a vinyl shower curtain, running you anywhere from $7-$9 US dollars. If that is still out of your price range you could go with the least durable, an EVA shower curtain. These will only run you about $4-$6 bucks but you can expect to replace it fairly often (probably 2-3 time’s a year). Fabric is the way to go if you have the money to spend. They’re long lasting and very durable shower curtains!

Do they make kid shower curtains?

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

To answer this common question in lamens terms, YES! What exactly do you consider a “kid shower curtain?” I would consider this something with designs on it. Not you usual navy blue or clear shower curtain hanging in your bathroom. Some of the more popular kid and teenage shower curtains include Barbie, Transformers, Dragon Ball Z, and Tiger shower curtains. You won’t find these at your local Wal-Mart usually. If you’re in the hunt for a kid shower curtain we suggest going to a store specializing in shower and bathroom materials such as Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Or simply visit one of the sponsored links on our website. Most of our sponsors carry all types of shower curtains for kids and adults of all ages!

Why you need a bathroom shower curtain

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

There are dozens of important reasons any person needs a bathroom shower curtain. Safety and cleanliness are just a few of the most important reasons. A shower curtain hanging in your bathroom will keep water coming from your shower head locked into just the bath tub or shower keeping your floors from becoming wet and slipery. This leads into another very important aspect, safety. Most bathroom floors are made up of tile, which can become very wet and slipery when wet. It’s very important to have some sort of curtain hanging in your bathroom at all times to keep water from landing on your bathroom floor. Did you know there are hundreds of accidents reported each year from families and friend’s slipping in their bathroom? Don’t be one of those numbers, always have a shower curtain hanging in your bathroom!
