The Voice Behind My Shower Line
My Shower Line is written by Colleen Barnes, a Northern California native with a lifelong appreciation for order, comfort, and the simple routines that make a home feel steady. Colleen has what she affectionately calls her mild OCD tendencies, which show up in small and consistent ways: checking water temperature twice, keeping toiletries arranged in a familiar rhythm, and noticing tiny changes in how water feels on skin or hair.
These habits, far from holding her back, have shaped her ability to understand bathroom spaces with unusual clarity. With a degree in Consumer Product Design from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, she spent years working as a product analyst testing faucets, showerheads, and home fixtures.
Her work allowed her to see how design, water flow, and personal habits come together in everyday life. In 2025, she created My Shower Line to share her practical understanding of showers and personal care routines in a way that feels calm, honest, and helpful.
Today, Colleen writes from her coastal urban neighborhood, blending observation, experience, and genuine care to help readers feel more confident in their daily routines.
