Rinsing with water doesn't clean things and what do you mean old soap?-the soap kills bacteria and the sponge might not be fully covered by soap.

Then why did you suggest it is old and dirty? It will be clean providing it is rinsed thoroughly.

Don't forget you're talking to a guy who, according to a thread he made, lives primarily on garlic bread and cereal. Take from that what you will.

LOL I remember that thread! He tried to defend it, as well XD

On topic: I used to use a sponge, but they have slowly been phased out of my house, so my hands suffice.

Water doesn't clean things because only soap can get rid of bacteria.

I've always used a sponge or flannel

[hippieglitter]

I never liked puffs, I don't think they do a good job. Mostly i use my hands but sometimes I use one of these:

[hannahhaworth]

Flannels are okay as long as you wash them every day; if you used a sponge you'd have to throw it away. Unless you're really grubby just using your hands is fine though

[No Man]

I normally use my hands. It's a lot easier imo.

People don't only wash themselves with water. The flannel is covered in soap and is rinsed afterwards, which means the existing soap will clean it.

The flannel will then get covered in loads of bacteria and you often don't end up covering the whole flannel,with soap and this means that as soon as it is rinsed they can just reproduce all over the flannel and washing with water doesn't clean things,unfortunately.It is definitely not more hygienic to wash with a sponge and probably more hygienic to wash without a flannel.

Yes, you do. The soap lathers and covers the entire flannel.

It depends on what constitutes 'hygiene'. Hands are less effective at removing dead skin than more abrasive objects like flannels and sponges, so I consider the former to be less hygienic than the latter.

Good exfoliator

LMFAO =')

Which part do people wash first when they get in the shower? With me, it's the belly and then moving up under the armpits. Thoughts? This is a pretty important issue to my mind, maybe even more than the sponge or flannel.

right armpit.

[HumiT]

I use a Moroccan kessa, extremely good for removing dead skin!

[T'archer]

I use my hands, unless i'm shaving afterwards in which case i'll use my flannel aswell.

[3ary]

I wash with my hand but every week I exfoliate to get the dead skin off

[The Entity]
