What part of your body do you tend to neglect in the shower? (lemmy.ml)

I always forget about my naval. When I was younger I would never wash behind my ears.

Has to be my back. It's hard to reach even with a back brush because of degenerative issues in my shoulder joints. I tried one of those scrubbers with the two ropes, but it's hard to control. Need a bigger shower so my wife can wash it for me...and get my back while she's at it!

A scrubber that adheres to the shower wall would be neat. Clean your back like a bear scratching an itch on a tree.

I'd prefer more of a car wash system https://youtu.be/DwVKC3FnVXY

I wonder if my insurance would pay for at least part of one of these? But I don't think it would fit in my tiny shower.

I typed out basically the same comment without having seen yours 👁️👄👁️

Hell yeah, collaborative invention 🤝

mount the backbrush to one of the walls then scrub your back against it like a bear 😁😂

They make a scrubby cloth that’s like 4 feet long.

[–] CmdrShepard@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah that's called a towel.

[–] Whisper06@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

No no it’s like for washing and it’s super scrubby, like a loofah almost but more scrubby.

[–] Dreadnaught@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Yes and no. Salux/Goshi washcloth or towel. Interchangable really. But they are longer washcloths that have a scrubby or exfoliant surface. They are perfect to use to wash your back

Dunno if this is good or bad for you. But I recently switched shower gel and decided to properly scrub my back. BOOM! 2 days later my back is filled with acne. I bust about a dozen spots that are now large craters in my back.

I never had that problem when I just let it handle itself while using bar-soap.
