How often do most investment banking analysts brush their teeth?

It seems like a legit question to ask since if you are working 16 hour days, you might not have that many chances to brush your teeth or groom yourself for that matter. Or you can get lazy once you reach your domicile.

 

I brushed my teeth and flossed multiple times a day during my SA stint, so much so that I think people thought I had OCD or something. Pretty sure the only reason I got a return offer was because one day a MD really needed some floss before a client meeting and I gave some of my stash to him. Won me all the brownie points I needed.

 

I've been wondering this as well. Regarding hygiene in general, personally, I have extremely oily hair and manage it by using dry shampoo between regular shampoo days.

If I have to stay up all night, I have to either use dry shampoo or regular shampoo (full shower) or else my hair is extremely oily again. It sounds pretty extreme, but my hair looks fine as long as I am managing it.

Anyway, was wondering if people have ever seen anyone using stuff like dry shampoo around the office lol
