Do you use a washcloth when bathing and/or showering?
- Thread starter Slayven

I voted no and thought I was an animal. Turns out I'm a normal person. Vindicated. I'd like to think my body hair is a good lathering material, but I can't grow chest hair for shit. Just nipple hair. Lather the fuck outta my nipples though, and I can use that on the rest of my body.
Literally this, lather them hands and get all up in there, EVERYWHERE
I alternate between shower Puffs and just my hands and if I'm in a rush I use bar soap. However, I've been using the same shower Puff for like 3 or 4 months now.
Not sure how you get rid of dead skin without using one. When you do use one, you can see all of the dead skin that was on your body.
Nah, I use a loofa. I used to use washcloths as a kid, I use them on my daughter too. I use a washcloth when I'm at hotels.
Being clean and feeling clean are two different things. If someone doesn't feel clean just using their hands, then that's a perfectly valid reason to buy a product that specifically helps you achieve that clean feel. I always feel like my pits and the backs of my legs, and feet, aren't clean when I just use my hands... like if I'm camping or staying at a friends house or something. I'm sure that I am clean, but I feel wrong all day. Being clean and feeling clean are two different things.

I have a stockpile of these in my utility closet.
These are pieces of shit that are way more expensive than they should be and less effective at cleaning than a $0.10 loofa. I just love the marketing push by Dove though... "Dual sided shower tool." It's just brilliant old school gender marketing. "Men feel uncomfortable buying loofas at the grocery store, but market research shows they love using their wive's loofas... how can we sell more plastic junk to men? 💡⚡💡 CALL IT A DUAL SIDED SHOWER TOOL!"
When they first launched these a few years they packed them in with the Dove Men's body wash, which I buy, and so I had a couple of them. Then I saw Dove selling them for like $5/ea or whatever at the Super market and... ba god... what a scam.
It's a piece of shit, but I really respect Dove's marketing driven product team for the sheer brilliance of it.

No, but I have an actual brush and cleaning paste in my shower in case it gets nasty (like completely covered in mud, machine oil or hydraulic fluid).
Yes for my private parts
And
A loofah for the rest of my body.
My face I use a bar of soap specifically for that as well

I really envy the guy who suggested Shower Tool because it sounds like Power Tool. I bet he got a huge bonus.
Wait, people DON'T use washcloths? And people that do reuse the SAME washcloth? WTF?
They're like $2 for a fluffy 5 pack. I admit, I use my towel 2-3 sometimes 4 times before changing but I grab a clean washcloth every time I shower.
And for the love of God, please tell me you all use bleach when you wash washcloths. Bleach and Borax + detergent.
This is what I use and what I've recommended multiple times on this forum.
Loofah. I used to just use bare hands and bar soap, but like the way a loofah lathers up with body wash. The body wash also leaves less soap scum on the shower than bar soap.
I'd be curious to see what the results were if it were a three way poll between washcloth, loofah, and nothing.

Simple question
You black aint ya?
Are you planning another ban wave which only the Blacks survive?
If so im in.
I already survived the snap, surviving the prove you black snap is easy.
I see more people suspicious of Slayven.
How are people here becoming so grimy over the course of their day that lathering soap and/or bodywash and rubbing it all over the body with your hands, is not removing most if not all of the dirt, such that it reaches a threshold of being clean enough to operate in society for the subsequent 16-24 hours or so?
I use this
Same! poll should have a loofah option for us classy folk.
Wait. You can't put your hand In it?
Simple question
We generally use this
I use something similar to the Dove thing that people are apparently very divided on. When that's not an option, like if I'm travelling, I use a washcloth of some kind. Those that just use their hands should definitely consider an upgrade. I do that too if I am in a hurry and am taking the "5 minute rush because I missed my alarm" shower, and I can definitely tell the difference. I was a hands-only guy for many years until I saw just how much dead skin and gunk comes off with a proper washcloth that first time you try one.
Scrub until it hurts a little and come out super sparkly clean!

I hit this link expecting some kind of disgusting shared washcloth scheme. Oh my god it was worse.
