I shove the bar of soap strait up my ass and just express the foam into my hand from there until I’m done.
Dat special scent from Yankee Candle
A yes, the Gere technique
I just rub the shower gel bottle over myself. It’s lasting me ages
Watch out for Big Soap! They don’t want the people to know your one weird trick!
I don’t shower barehanded. I wear gloves at all times as to not scuff my jorts.

This Arrested Development/Always Sunny cross over is exactly what I needed today, thank you both.
Dozens!
There are dozens of us!
The way this question was phrased killed me. lmao
The same way you wash your hands
Someone out there is rubbing the bar all over each hand and then just rinses. Knowing humans this has to be true for someone.
If there’s a betting pool I’ve got $5 on Florida.
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.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who was wondering what on earth OP was taking about
Maybe op has only used shower gloves and has now seen the light…
There’s liquid soap, you know. Didn’t need to shove anything inside anywhere to stay clean.
Liquid soap/body wash is a sham. It’s just the company selling you less soap by diluting it with water. Bars of soap are more economical.
I’m old enough to remember when body wash was not the normal and now soap bars seem to be used less than body wash.
Liquid soap is a bitch to rinse properly.
I’ve never once found that to be the case, and I love those super lathery ones too
It rinses just as any other state form soap, what are you talking about
Astroglide is not a brand of liquid soap
This is a common problem… You need to buy “body wash” from the supermarket or pharmacy. Not the “wash” from the body shop.
Use beard as soap distribution hub.
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.
What’s gross about loofahs?
I just imagine that they really enjoy rocking a layer of dead skin.
I definitely did not misread that as lawyer amd pictured a very cursed Saul Goodman
Do you wash loofahs like you can a washcloth? If no, it just sounds like it could get gross like using an old dirty sponge.
I don’t have the time or patience to wash a washcloth after every use. Loofahs dry out more quickly than washcloths or sponges (I’m talking the plastic artificial ones). I’m sure it could get gross, but I throw them out before they get too bad. You can wash loofahs in diluted bleach every few weeks to keep them clean.
You mean the plastic ones or the real ones? The plastic ones you can hand wash but I wouldn’t stick it in a washing machine (you probably could if you used a laundry bag and put it on low spin)
I just replace mine often (each week) since they’re only like a dollar or two, personally.
That sounds wasteful
Well the little card that they come with says to replace it every two weeks… And you can very clearly tell when they’re getting to the “old gross sponge” feeling that the other person mentioned.
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.
Amateur. With the power of the Seifensäckchen, I manage to shower within 2-3 minutes.
Have you ever heard of shower gel?
Like with just your hand? No wash cloth?
Yes. Why would I need a cloth?
Why not?
Barehanded as opposed to what? I just rub the bar of soap all over and Robert’s your mother’s brother.
“Robert’s your mother’s brother” – I’m stealing this, thank you
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.
What kind of damned animal doesn’t rinse their dishes after washing them with soap?! I refuse to accept there are people out there doing this and if there are: I am not mad, I am just deeply disappointed in you.
I think it’s maybe a UK think, with a view to saving energy. Fill up a big washing up bowl in the sink, put soap in that, wipe it with a cloth then put it straight on the rack. Meanwhile I just run the hot tap excessively (turned down to a low flow) and scrub with one of those sponges on a stick with soap dispensing through the handle.
My parents were British and they used to have two washing bowls. Pile the dirty dishes into one and fill with warm water and dish soap. Clean water in the second bowl for rinsing. After a while the second bowl builds up residual soap so it needs to be emptied and refilled. I figure I use the same amount of water rinsing under a running faucet. But the soak thing is a great tip - leaving dishes in water to soak makes cleaning them so much easier.
I prefer to just leave the hot tap running throughout, but down on low flow (basically the lowest I can have it with the combi boiler still on, but because it’s so slow it’s actually even hotter than full flow). The constant heat really helps loosen everything, then when the plate or whatever is on the rack to dry it’s steaming.
But yeah most British people would be horrified with the way I do it hah.
My dishes fucking sparkle, and that’s because I rinse them clean.
This is how I can tell you live in an area that doesn’t have hard water. Water spots all over my dishes, even though I rinse them… sometimes because I rinse them.
I do actually live in an area with hard water, and don’t have a water softener. Even then, I think the heat of the water I use maybe helps - there’s only ever a tiny little bit of water left to drip out. I’m not very energy effecient with it, I run the hot tap very hot to rinse.
I’ve noticed people get a bunch of soap at a sink, cover their hands in suds, quickly wet their hands and walk out. Insanity
Here here!
There there. ;P
where scare?!
That doesn’t even make sense…
Those of you who shower barehanded.
Huh?
Without a cloth or loofah, or whatever.
That soap does what it’s told or it gets the hose again.
