Do astronauts shower?

[NoGo90]

@naik2222 No, sense water is precious in space, and gravity could make quite a mess, they do "bird baths" I believe. Also, microgravity causes the clothes they wear to float, instead of lay on there bodies, so they don't absorb as much sweat. Again with the precious water, they do not wash clothes, they are used once and then put in a capsule to be sent into space where they burn up. Interesting stuff!
