It can give her wettail which can kill her... It also removes all the essential oils from their fur. And it can cause severe respiratory issues. I wouldn't chance it. Hamsters clean themselves.. It's cruel to bathe her just because you "have an urge".

You don't need to bathe her. Just dipping her in water for no reason is ridiculous. And even Dial soap can be too harsh on them. You can easily make her very sick. Or even kill her.

Pleeease don't bath your hamster, they can get sick and chilled really easily. It also washes off the natural oils in their coat. I wouldn't really recommend pet wipes either. Unless your hamster is dirty there's not much point.
Instead you could get some chinchilla sand and put it in a dish, they often use it as a dust bath. =]
