Do you use a washcloth? What race are you?

+1. If I exfoliated every time I showered my skin would bleed.

I am white, British and from London. I had a black British boyfriend for a few years and he literally taught me how to wash thoroughly. He didn't just use a washcloth he had a scrub he used on his entire body, every single day.

AA. Did use growing up. Stopped when I went into the military. I find it frustrating to find the right washcloth that can last through the washing/laundry. There are other things I can use to exfoliate.

Sometimes people don't know when to take old washcloths out of circulation, so if I'm at someone's home and they hand me a set of towels with a washcloth I just take it but don't bother using it so I don't have to think about how it might smell when wet or near my face. I am periodically surprised when while friends pull out the wash cloth though.

I buy really nice ones for my family for when they stay at my home.

White. I use a sponge or my hands.

White- no washcloth at home except for my face. If visiting a friend/relative i do use a washcloth as I don't want their soap directly on my body.

Unless you use a fresh one every time, it’s gross.

So this washcloth how do you use it? I am latina but a college grad my mom was a housekeeper and warned me not to use washcloths at hotels because people were wiped their privates with them. And no I don't use washcloths to wipe.

So far some races say they don't use it but a majority of the ones who do are white and black
