Perfectly okay to bathe and wash hair (in enclosed bathroom, warm water / herbal bath, hair dryer to dry hair immediately). Don't need to abstain at all, even tcm agrees.

Was aiming for one week but by the third day couldn't take it, it is fine to take baths but make sure hair fully dried and don't catch a cold

I'd wipe my body down every day and wash my hair every 3 days. Singapore weather is too humid!

Immediately after I delivered I had a 38 hour deliver How not to shower after??!!??!!!

I didn't follow that, so used to bathe every day with the water with all that herbs

Weather too humid to not shower! Tried to limit 1 shower per day. But so harddd
