Okay, first you need to know that this strategy will only work if the bathroom itself is warm. Thankfully, that is the case here.
Right. Are you ready? Do you know where your towel is? Good.
First step:
Undress. Find a dry place to put your clothes and towels.
Second step:
Step into the shower and turn it on. Discover that it's cold. (Try to do this step without actually getting very wet!) Retreat and regroup.
Third step:
Borrow a washcloth from a fellow shower user. (A clean one!) Step back into the shower. Stand as far back as possible and turn it on again. Hold the washcloth under the water and switch the shower off again.
Fourth step:
Lather up using the washcloth.
Fifth step:
Turn the shower on again, and get the washcloth dripping wet. Turn the shower off. Rinse with the washcloth.
Sixth step:
Walk over (yes, still naked!) to the washbasin. Bend over and get as much of your hair wet as you can manage without knocking yourself out with the tap. That'll mostly be the long, bottom part. (If you have short hair, skip this step.)
Seventh step:
Go back to the shower, switch it on, and very quickly use it to wet your scalp. You have to bend over for this, but you'll still get misted a bit by cold water. Switch the shower off again.
Eighth step:
Shampoo your hair.
Ninth step:
Go back to the washbasin, bend over, rinse the long part of your hair. (Short-haired people get to skip this step as well.)
Tenth step:
Now go back to the shower, and use it to rinse your scalp, bending over again.
Eleventh step:
Congratulations, you're done!
