Get a Japanese washcloth, you animals. It's like a loofah that's been unraveled into a single rough cloth. A bit of body wash or even a bar of soap folded into it and you can hold the ends and scrub your body and back. Gets off all the dead skin and sweat, it's great.

I read something a few months ago about a dermatologist saying that you don't need something that rough to remove any dead skin, and that literally your hand or anything soft would fit the bill.

That being said, I still use a pretty rough "soap bag".

Whoa, another human knows of the magic of these things? They're awesome. Works exactly as you described, great for back. Lasts forever. Doesn't hold water or grossness, only suds. Perfectly abrasive, for baby smooth skin. Thanks Japan. A+

Is this just a man thing though?

Hands, by virtue of being the things doing the scrubbing, should be red.

Check out this guy scrubbing with his hands instead of using his head as a loofah like a normal person

YES

i saw someone on twitter say this is basically correct - it's bad for the skin to constantly wash the rest for no reason

My dermatologist told me this: wash the stinky parts.

Scrub your feet unless you want yellow toenails like grandpa

That's actually not to do with washing. That's fungus, which soap won't kill.

Washing your feet prevents if from growing in the first place.

Missing the 'ole gooch chooch. Crank the heat up and blast your taint with the shower head.

Socks and gloves stay on in the shower. No exceptions.

I think you meant to post this to infographics because it’s accurate information

The other day my girlfriend said, "I'm pretty fast at showering. I know exactly where to clean."

Seriouslyis this not good enough? I only do a full body soap weekly.

Yall are stinky. It takes like 1-2 min to scrub your whole body. It takes me more time to scrub my back than the rest of my body. Get a loofa or whatever, it's fast.

hair only gets washed every few days, and the feet get washed once or twice daily. otherwise accurate.

That's kind of disgusting.

That the comments are as much in agreement as I was expecting is depressing. There are a lot deep, dark things I'll tell the internet, but "What's wrong with never washing?" is somehow not one of them.

As an athlete, good god that would leave me smelly long term lol But also this is probably accurate for 99% of teenage boys

Well, after a really sweaty workout session you should wash your whole body, but washing it with chemicals every day damages the natural barrier.

Hell no, I definitely wash my feet and hands. Feet usually get a deep scrub and hands get washed on a regular basis anyways so they just get a standard scrub.

No, I have a sauna brush in my shower.

If I've gone to the trouble of undressing, turning on the fan, etc, then I'm gonna actually wash everywhere, even if it's quick. Otherwise, it's basically just a rinse, which seems pointless.
