When you take a shower, do you face the shower-head or face away from it? Do you switch it up?
I always always stand facing away from it, so that the water is mostly on the back of my head and hair. My SO thinks this is very strange - he has always faced directly into the stream of water. I don't like water in my eyes, so this would never fly for me!
What do you do? Your SO?

I face away mostly, like you do. I turn around to rinse off of course and to wash my face. By I don't like getting a face full of water throughout so I stand away from it with it hitting the back of my head. I'm not sure what my DH does honestly... I walk through the bathroom when he is in there but i never pay attention! hah

I usually only put my face towards it to rinse my body really quickly and to wash my face.

I don't like water in my eyes but I stand facing it. I bow my head and keep them shut

I'm with you! I stand facing away like you do, and only turn around to wash my face. Not sure what my husband does exactly, but the times that I have seen him in the shower he's stood both facing and away.

I do both but mainly face away. My DH and I just had this exact conversation because he always faces the shower head and thinks it's weird to turn around!

@cheesetomywhine: The whole time?! Lol!
Glad I'm not alone in this! Hubby acted like I was some sort of weirdo.

I face away from it almost the whole time, I think I just turn around to rinse my front or wash my face. I hate water spraying in my face.

I do both! But I only get close enough to get my face wet when I'm rinsing off.

Facing away! Unless I'm just showering to get warm, and then I face into the water.

@PermaStudent: pretty much! I face away to wash my hair and to fully rinse. Also if my back is hurting I face away so I can have the water pressure on it. Otherwise I just stand under it, face first. Maybe that is why DH makes fun of me?!

I do both to make sure I get clean 360 degrees haha. I think DH does the same.

@snowjewelz: Hey, I get 360 degrees clean, too! I just turn fairly quickly to rinse off my front because I'm an adult baby and don't like getting my face splashed 
Haha

I'm a constant turner. I wait till one side is all warm, then I turn the other way till that side is warm. Can you tell I'm always cold??

Away! I turn my face to the shower head get all the face wash off, but I think that's it.

I'm like @valentinemama I hate being cold so I mostly face it with the water hitting my chest area (no water in eyes) but then I get cold and rotate.

Towards! But I definitely do a 360 while soaped up so everything gets a good rinse!

Always towards until I wash my hair. I'm actually surprised that so many people face away!

Both. I usually start with my front in it, but I turn around to rinse my hair.

I can't remember, so I guess it is both? I will have to pay more attention tomorrow.
