Subject: 12yo still takes baths, not showers
I prefer bathing to showering and do whenever I have time. It's a perfectly valid way to get clean, and yes, it's relaxing.
For a child who hasn't gone through puberty (doesn't smell), I still would insist they clean their body at least twice a week, bath or shower. If she's using bath bombs, she needs to rinse hair and body with clean water before getting out.

Teach your child to bathe. This is ridiculous.

So you’re telling us that she washes her hair once per week by putting in conditioner, scrubbing in shampoo with a loofah and then lying down in bath water. And she “washes” her body by….sitting in that water once per week.
I’m sorry, but no.

OP. It keeps her hair smoother and shinier. She has greasy and frizzy hair that the conditioner before shampoo helps with.
I also forgot to mention that she washes her face twice a day with a cleanser and water. Thank you for your responses!
Did you actually answer the question as everyone is asking about whether she is also taking showers? Or is that once per week bath (plus washing her face every day) all that she’s doing?
OP again. That's all that she's doing. On long weekends she'll bathe twice a week, but that's it.
Okay so yes, you should definitely force her to start taking showers. She can keep the one bath per week to relax but she needs a shower every day to clean herself.

She has greasy hair because she’s only bathing once per week. We would all be greasy and dirty if we did that too.

Does she wash her body in the bath?

Soaking up in soapy filthy water is just gross.

She should be conditioning after shampooing. And why she is using a loofah in her hair?
Is she taking more than one bath per week?

Baths are fine. The main thing is that she cleanses herself. When I took baths, I found it easier to wash my hair separately at the kitchen sink.
Just for general information, if she ever has a UTI, baths can make them worse, so she would need to shower then.
