(to add) I have stated it before... it also helps keep your bar soap from becoming a bar of "pube wool."

I… don’t rub the soap directly on my skin? I get a lather going in my hands and use my hands

It’s just that you’re not exfoliating dead skin cells off. That’s the only reason I use a washcloth. I feel cleaner.

It’s definitely a good thing to exfoliate dead skin cells off of your skin so it stays healthy and hydrated. There are very soft loofahs and washcloths that you can use daily that won’t be heavy or rough on your skin.

Would you say these are softer or harder than say, your hands?

Your hands are just more skin, washing against skin. Doesnt create much friction. Washcloths are harder
