Cowboys in the late 19th century often had limited access to water and hygiene facilities, so they did not shower regularly. It was common for them to wash themselves in rivers or streams when available, but daily bathing was rare. Instead, they might have bathed once a week or less, depending on their circumstances and the availability of water. Maintaining cleanliness was challenging due to their lifestyle and the demands of their work on the range.
