What Do You Use When Bathing?

Contributor: Wicked Wahine Wicked Wahine
My previous discussion was, What Body Part Do You Wash First? Some people mentioned using a washcloth & I realized I had completely forgotten to address this! I do not use a washcloth; I just use my hands because washcloths were always too irritating for me when younger, so I never got in the habit. (When I need to exfoliate, I use a modern, stainless steel, strigil, sometimes with oil.)

I remember reading an article that Europeans favor using their hands, but North American's with their Puritan roots, started using a cloth when bathing as a barrier between the hands & body. This is supposedly the reason when first trying to market shower gels to North America they didn't become accepted until they were offered with a bath poof.

Regardless of all that, what do you use to bathe with?

I use a loofah. I can't remember the last time I used a wash cloth or just my hands.

I usually use my hands, sometimes a poof but usually my hands.

I have KP, so I am often using Japanese nylon cloth from Daiso to exfoliate. But for daily showers I use nothing.

I've used a mesh poof for as long as I can remember.

I just use my hands, sometimes i'll use something else for awhile but end up going back to just hands.

I just use my hands. I'm pretty sure my skin is too sensitive to tolerate much else.

A poof every time and a loofah about twice a week.

Loofah, it really removes excess skin and cleanses well.

I use a poof or loofah and I start with my face first with a wash cloth.

We have an oversized washcloth and a loofah in the shower. I use either one. I usually use the washcloth if I'm really dirty, like from working in the yard, because it's more abrasive. When I'm in a hurry, I just use my hands.

I love the exfoliating gloves, but haven't had them in years. I dispose of them, but think they're great. I just use a wash cloth & a pumice rock on my feet. I have been wanting one of those handled back loofah things. Lol. I nearly break my arm trying to scrub my back.

I prefer the mesh poofs and my 2nd choice is a washcloth. Living up to my North American upbringing I guess!

I exfoliate my underarms and feet with a poof or textured washcloth. My skin is very dry and sensitve and I have a tendency to scrub too hard with anything other than my hands anywear else.
I like those nylon Japanese clothes though...they're great for stretching over my shoulders and back. Loofas creep me out, they smell bad even brand new.
