I use a soap bar, and just scrub my body with it. It does the job.

To quote Chandler: "Soap is soap! It's self-cleaning!"

Follow-up question: do you wash your feet extra or do you also think that the shower gel water below will fix that?

Shove the soap.

This thread of comments is disturbing.

It’s soap. It’s a bar. I rub it on my wife then myself and then we rinse it off.

Lather first

Also, a lifehack: if you have body hair, you can lather soap onto your hands and then just move them through your body hair

This allows you to generate tons of soap foam with which you can wash EVERYTHING

No one in here uses a loofa?!?

Lather and hands. Unless you live alone shoving the soap leaves hair on it and that's just nasty for everyone else to look at or deal with.

I swipe the bar of soap between my butt cheeks like a credit card...

I just use my chest hair, I feel like if I use a washcloth I’ll smell moldy without realizing it

My shower has different cycles like a self serve car wash. I just move the dial to the appropriate setting and go from there.

I always start with that bubblegum-scented foam brush.

what

Lather up by rubbing bar on hairy bits. Use hands to rub everything down with lather.

I use a loofah, man you guys are really living up to the male stereotype haha

Look up the green "Asian body scrub" cloths. They're next level wash cloths that exfoliate, dry fast, and are washable. Bonus, they're super cheap. I swear by them and can't ever go back to other scrubbers.

Isn't the soap that touches the body ablated by friction with the skin?

Nice excuse for softcore

Both, hard to shove soap on your back, easy on your belly
