Another way to say - You need to have had your shower before noon.

"Il faut que tu aies pris ta douche avant midi." (You have to have had your shower before noon.You need to have had your shower before noon.) Would it also be correct to say the following: "Il faut que tu aies eu ta douche avant midi"?

Bonjour Helen ! No, that would be what we call in French "un anglicisme" :) Indeed, you would never use "avoir une douche" in French, unlike in English. The colloquial expression is "prendre une douche/un bain". Bonne journée !
