Hygiene: Difference between revisions

After a while, [[Sim]]s start to get dirty, and if they get very dirty, they start sniffing themselves and saying, "Ewww!". Bad '''hygiene''' will seriously affect Sims' mood and social skills—bad hygiene won't get a Sim promoted at work either. Therefore, it is necessary to take a bath or shower when the Hygiene meter slips into the red—a [[hot tub]] also works, but not as well, although it can boost the Social and Fun bars. Washing one's hands after going to the bathroom also improves this rating, as does brushing teeth{{Vgversion|TS}} or gussying up in the mirror.{{Vgversion|TS2}} In order to facilitate the latter activities, be sure to have a medicine cabinet, bathroom cabinet or mirror and sink. Sometimes, the shower leaks after a Sim has been in it, so it's handy to have a mop ready.
