The pandemic was both good AND bad for personal hygiene in Shreveport.  Maybe you put MORE of an emphasis on washing your hands and face . . . but got a little lax with other stuff, with all that time spent at home.

In a new poll, people were asked what hygiene habits they perform “regularly,” and 90% of people said they wash their hands and bathe regularly.

87% routinely brush their teeth . . . 84% use deodorant or antiperspirant . . . 83% wash their hair . . . 81% specifically wash their “intimate areas” . . . and 77% make sure to wash their face and care for their skin.

Then there’s a bit of a drop-off.  Only 64% of people trim their nails . . . 62% use mouthwash . . . and 51% say they floss.

What about the Shreveport-Bossier area? Are people not being as ‘clean’ as they use to be, or are they more hygienic than they use to be?
