Body Wash, no bar soap?

[Our Tracey]

I will make sure not to call them Poofs, but Scrunchies, especially if I am over on your side of the pond someday!:) In fact, I don't think I will ever call them Poofs again!:o

Oh yes, I know, and if anyone will "step in it" and make a mistake, it will be me!!! So POOFS are now SCRUNCHIES!!!:D

BTW, I tried one of those SCRUNCHIES today at home and they seem to work great with body wash/gel.....lots of lather! However, I have a question, how sanitary are they after they are used for a (undetermined?) period of time........how long do you use it before you throw it out and use a new one? I don't mean to be stupid, but I have never used these things and I am sure SCRUNCHIE users out there can give some advice to a novice like me. I would assume a week or less, but.......:confused::confused::confused:

Someone please clue me in, it is obvious I am not knowledgeable on this SCRUNCHIE thing......:)

I love the bath gel...it smells so minty and lathers really nicely. I use a poof.

 

Baahaahaahaahaa.....That's hilarious!

 

I mean pouf...but that was really funny!

 

And I just watched Billy Elliot not that too long ago.

 

 

What a wonderful movie.

I'm waiting for an answer to your question too. Also wouldn't a wet scrunchie add to the possible problem of mildew forming in a shower? Maybe not, I'm waiting to hear answers too. :):)

I've used scrunchies for quite awhile now and have never had a problem with mildew or odour with them. Perhaps it's the material they are made of. A kind of plastic netting.

 

I ususally use mine for about a month or so and then I replace it with a new one.

 

Here you go....according to Rachel Ray's doctor about 3 weeks is their life.

Thanks! Answered my question :)

I throw my scrunchie in the laundry every week with the towels. It doesn't go in the dryer though, I just hang it back in the shower.

I have used a "scrunchie" for years with bath gels. Every few weeks, or sooner if I think about it, I wash mine with our bath towels. I do put it in a small mesh laundry bag. It does fine. I think this helps with the issues raised here.

 

Oh Oh, posted at the same time Divi did. However, I do put it in the dryer. Now you have choices.

Thank you to all for your advice.......I may try the washer thing with the towels first, and if it starts to look, well, you know, nasty......I will pitch it and buy another. They seem to be very inexpensive. I must say, I had never used one, and it does lather up well with bath gel/liquid soap. Much better than a washcloth!:)

I Googled it myself, and Its exactly what i thought it was .

 

I do recall an old Monty Python skit .......NO POOFTAHS!!!!!! *LOL

My husband makes our soap, so we always bring 2 bars with us, one for the sink and one for the shower!
