Washing one's hands after going to the bathroom also improves this rating, as does [[Toothbrushing|brushing teeth]]{{Vgversion|TS}}{{Vgversion|TS2:AL}}{{Vgversion|TS3}}{{Vgversion|TS4}} or gussying up in the mirror.{{Vgversion|TS2}}{{Vgversion|TS3}} In order to facilitate the latter activities, be sure to have a [[medicine cabinet]], bathroom cabinet ora [[mirror]], and sink. Sometimes, the shower leaks after a Sim has been in it, so it's handy to have a mop ready[[sink]].
 
==Activities that decrease hygiene==
Some activities or events cause a Sim's hygiene need to decrease faster then normal. Some examples are:
* Most forms of exercise unless a Sim uses the "Don't Break a Sweat" tone{{vgversion|TS3}} or has the Gym Rat reward trait{{vgversion|TS4}}.
* If a Sim's bladder need bottoms out, they will pee themselves which will instantly bottom out the hygiene meter.
* Being near a fire. In ''The Sims'', only extinguishing a fire will cause a Sim's hygiene to decrease.
* In ''The Sims 2 (console)'', standing next to a pile of trash will cause a Sim's hygiene to decrease much faster than normal.
 
==Hygiene on community lots==
Most community lots will not have any ways of increasing hygiene other than sinks. In ''[[The Sims: Superstar]]'', some [[Studio Town]] lots have steam baths and hot tubs, but none of them boostboosts hygiene sufficiently. Therefore, it's best to get the Hygienehygiene meter as full as possible before going out.
 
Bathing and showering isn't a problem when on [[vacationing|vacation]], as most lots in vacation destinations will have showers or bathtubs available. Lots that offer [[massage]]s, [[sauna]]s, or [[Ancient Soakalicious Spring|hot springs]] may have bathrooms with showers.{{Vgversion|TS2:BV}} [[Market]]s in foreign destinations will sell [[Shower in a Can|showers in a can]], which can be used to quickly replenish hygiene while [[adventure|adventuring]].
 
==Hygiene and other [[life state]]s==
[[Servo#The Sims 2|Servos]]{{Vgversion|TS2:OFB}}, [[PlantSim]]s{{Vgversion|TS2:S}}, [[SimBot]]s{{vgversion|TS3:A}}, [[mermaid]]s,{{Vgversion|TS3:IP}} and [[Plumbot]]s{{vgversion|TS3:ITF}} have no hygiene motive, though PlantSims and mermaids have a [[Motive (PlantSim)|water]] and hydration motive in place of hygiene. [[Bigfoot]]{{Vgversion|TS2:BV}} is largely indifferent to his own hygiene, and will not bathe unless directed to by the player.
 
==Other ways of affecting hygiene==
===The Sims===
In ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic|Makin' Magic]]'', magical children can use the '''No More Puddles?''' [[Spells (The Sims: Makin' Magic)#List of charms|charm]] to take a magical "bubble bath". For adults, the '''Magic Mood''' charm can boost all motives, including hygiene.
 
===The Sims 2===
[[Teen]]s and older can use the primp self-interaction in order to get a slight hygiene boost.
 
Sims with less than two [[Personality#Qualities|neat]] points will take a sponge bath at the nearest [[sink]] if their hygiene meter drops to the point where they begin to stink. This action is completely autonomous and cannot be prompted, nor will the action come up again if the player interrupts it. Sponge baths will raise a Sim's hygiene bar to around 75%.
 
In ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime|FreeTime]]'', Sims can purchase an [[aspiration benefit]] to decrease the rate of decay for both the hygiene and [[bladder]] motives by 12%. [[Romance]] Sims have an additional benefit that reduces the decay by another 12%.
 
In ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life|Apartment Life]]'', the [[Spells (The Sims 2: Apartment Life)#"Good" spells|good spell]] '''Benemoodus Simaethe''' increases all of the motives including hygiene, while the [[Spells (The Sims 2: Apartment Life)#"Neutral" spells|neutral spell]] '''Cleanus Corpus''' only boosts hygiene.
 
===The Sims 2 (console)===
The [[Zombie Monkey Paw]] is an item that can be found when searching through a couch. It will max out a random need, including hygiene.
 
===The Sims 3===
Sim can buy the Dirt Defiant [[lifetime reward]] (for 15,000 Lifetime Happiness points), which will make it take longer before the Sim with that reward has to take another bath.
 
Sims with the [[inappropriate]] [[Trait (The Sims 3)|trait]] have the option to take a sponge bath at any sink. Unlike ''The Sims 2'', the player can direct Sims to do this.
 
In ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions|Ambitions]]'', Sims can invent the [[Floor Hygienator]], which is placed on the floor and improves hygiene levels slightly when walked over.
 
In ''[[The Sims 3: Showtime|Showtime]]'', [[genie]]s can magically clean a Sim, which increases hygiene.
In ''The Sims 2'', Sims with less than 2 [[Personality#Qualities|Neatness]] points will take a sponge bath on community lots if their hygiene meter drops to the point where they begin to stink. This action is completely autonomous and cannot be prompted; Sims will proceed to the nearest sink to bathe themselves.
 
In ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural|Supernatural]]'', [[witch]]es can cast '''Hygiene Charm''' and '''Hygiene Curse''' to increase or decrease hygiene.
Bathing isn't a problem on [[Vacation Island]], as most lots at least have showers, and resort lots have baths. Likewise, it's not a problem in the ''[[Bon Voyage]]'' vacation destinations, because there are baths and showers in the [[hotel]]s.
 
In ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future|Into the Future]]'', using the '''Power Cleanse''' option on a [[Shower#Tardisian Well Sonic Shower by Corebital Designs|Sonic Shower]] provides the '''Pristine Protection''' moodlet for Sims that has the future sim [[hidden trait]], which stops hygiene decay for 5 hours.
==Hygiene and other [[Life state]]s==
[[Servo#The Sims 2|Servos]],{{Vgversion|TS2:OFB}} [[PlantSim]]s,{{Vgversion|TS2:S}} and [[SimBot]]s{{vgversion|TS3:A}} have no Hygiene motive. [[Bigfoot]]{{Vgversion|TS2:BV}} is largely indifferent to his own Hygiene, and will not bathe unless directed to by the player.
 
===The Sims 4===
==Other ways of affecting Hygiene==
In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', a Sim can buy a special potion from the [[Aspiration reward (The Sims 4)|aspiration reward]] store for 100 satisfaction points, which will immediately fill the hygiene need. The Antiseptic trait can also be bought for 3000 satisfaction points, which makes the Sims hygiene meter decay slower. Lastly, the Forever Fresh trait can be bought for 8000 satisfaction points, which will permanently max out the hygiene need.
In ''[[The Sims]]'', ''The Sims 2'', and ''The Sims 3'', there are alternative ways of raising, or maintaining, Hygiene.
 
==Pets==
In ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', magical children can use the '''No More Puddles?''' [[Spells (The Sims: Makin' Magic)#List of charms|charm]] to take a magical "bubble bath". For adults, the '''Magic Mood''' charm can boost all motives, including Hygiene. In ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]'', the [[Spells (The Sims 2: Apartment Life)#"Neutral" spells|neutral spell]] '''Cleanus Corpus''' boosts a Sim's Hygiene.
[[Pet]]s, like Sims, have hygiene motives and need to be fulfilled. [[Cat]]s will clean themselves, but [[dog]]s will need to be washed by a Sim, which can sometimes be hard if a dog likes to be dirty. In ''[[The Sims: Unleashed|Unleashed]]'' there are dog baths for dogs, but in ''[[The Sims 2: Pets]]'' dogs will need to be washed in regular bathtubs. When the dog jumps out of the bathtub, they will leave a puddle behind, so it's handy to have a mop ready for that as well.
 
==Hygiene [[moodlet]]s==
In ''[[The Sims: Livin' Large]]'', the blue potion that can be made with the [[The "Concoctanation Station"|chemistry set]] maxes out three random motives, though there is no way to be certain that Hygiene will be one of them. In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', Sims can use [[The Eclectic and Enigmatic Energizer]] to raise all motives, including Hygiene. In ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]'', Sim inventors can also invent the [[Floor Hygienator]], which is placed on the floor and improves Hygiene levels slightly when walked over.
