who shower barehanded

There is another way...?

I shove the bar of soap strait up my ass and just express the foam into my hand from there until I'm done.

I mean, yeah?? I just put the soap wherever it needs to go??

The soap isn't dirty folks. Half of the time all I'm showering off is sweat and dead skin cells anyways. And if any bugger dares reply to this with some clever comment about taint smears, I'll inform you beforehand I do not speak with bidet-less miscreants.

...I'm supposed to wear gloves in the shower?

Soap on hands; hands on body.

I just rub the shower gel bottle over myself. It's lasting me ages

I don't shower barehanded. I wear gloves at all times as to not scuff my jorts.

The way this question was phrased killed me. lmao

The same way you wash your hands

What I do is I take several guns and a baseball bat with me when I shower so that I'm never caught barehanded ever.

Liquid soap, problem solved.

There's liquid soap, you know. Didn't need to shove anything inside anywhere to stay clean.

Use beard as soap distribution hub.

Anywhere skin-on-skin contact occurs (butt, balls, armpits), I use a small amount of benzoyl peroxide facewash. It kills the bacteria responsible for BO and for 24-48 hours body odor is impossible.

You apply it, wait 5 minutes and rinse well. If you don't rinse well you can bleach your towel or clothes.

As far as body soap goes, I use a a fragrance free body wash with salicylic acid. Heavy mechanical exfoliation is not necessary when using a chemical exfoliant. Also, loofas are just a bunch of plastic waste.

After the shower, I use a lightweight gel moisturizer with cerimides. I use a thicker moisturizer on my hands and weenis.

That's just the body. I--of course--have a completely seperate routine for my face.

I lather everything on my belly and then spread it across my body.

Have you ever heard of shower gel?

Those of you who shower barehanded.

Huh?

Barehanded as opposed to what? I just rub the bar of soap all over and Robert's your mother's brother.

I use a bar of soap that is exclusive to me. I lather somewhere hairy, like my stomach, to build up some suds.Then, I soap everything with the suds and soap.

It wastes a ton of soap compared to a washcloth. And when I'm done I wash the bar off and wash my hands one last time. It's the quickest way I have found to shower. I am usually out in about 15 minutes.

Step out of the water, lather up hands, scrub, then back into the water to rinse. Face, then hair, the upper body then lower body - with a good spray of the undercarriage (shower heads are supposed to be removeable, not stuck to the wall).

It's a pet hate of mine that people often miss the step of rinsing when cleaning. The whole point is that the soap picks up the muck, then rinsing it removes it. This is a particular problem with dishes, where people leave (sometimes very dirty) dishwater on the plate to drip dry, with much of the residue remaining. My dishes fucking sparkle, and that's because I rinse them clean.

In contrast, with showers I think some people lather up in the water, which dilutes and rinses the soap away before it even cleans anything.

I just put shampoo on my head and t-pose

That soap does what it's told or it gets the hose again.

I raw dog bar soap all day ery day. I don’t lather it up, just rub it on my body. Wash clothes are a PITA and I honestly don’t see an exfoliating benefit. Loofahs are gross. I prefer dove. Very cost effective and leaves me smelling fresh.

People who use exfoliating gloves and wash clothes are fine and all but it's not like the majority of the world works in high viscosity grease factories. I roll bare-handed and never stink or feel dirty during a typical day.

That bar of soap goes wherever it needs to go. I’m mean it’s made out of soap. So it self cleaning as far as I’m concerned.

I don't care about any of that. What I really want to know is do you wash your legs?

Literal !showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Lather my hands and hit my crevasses.

Two words: pube loofah. The mons pubis is a great place to lather up. Then I just scoop up soap with my bare hands and bring it where it needs to be.
