Can we do "please use a washcloth in the shower?"
I think it has the potential to really annoy the core audience here, and also gives room for loofah posting.
I'll bite: why? its just another rag that I'll have to run through the wash every like 2 days
Because actually using a wet cloth to scrub something gets it cleaner than just putting soap on it then rinsing. If you think you're doing a good job scrubbing with your fingers, you aren't getting nearly as much coverage as you'd get in half the time with a rag.
also exfoliation.
These are baseless assertions - Your skin is covered in a layer of oils and skin that will capture your grime, and will naturally come off with hands and soap in running warm water. Unless you're regularly covered in like glue or you're showering every hour then using your hands will absolutely work to the same efficacy.
Exfoliation happens naturally, it does not need artificially scrubbing and materials unless you have a medical condition. My own baseless assertion is that scrubbing with a sponge or rag will remove more oils or skin than you should and instead expose and dry out your skin, making it worse.
I like to keep my assertions baseless, as it affords me more agility.
You'll need that agility to catch all the gross wet rags you're dropping.
