Inb4 I don’t
I’m not asking if you do it, I’m asking people how you do it
Edit: sorry I forgot I posted this and came back to a bunch of answers. I have a torn something in my shoulder that no MRI has been able to find for 20 years so I can’t just reach it. I myself use a long cloth, but I don’t really like it so I was curious what other people did.
Also, I don’t wash my back every shower, but I do get pretty sweaty sometimes and feel like I just have to
Reach as far as I can, use trickle-down soapenomics to take care of the rest.
This is the one case where I think the trickledown effect works like a charm
Part of your back isn’t scrubbed.
Guess I’ll die then?
Eventually, yes.
Works for me. Nobody screamed at me for smelling at this spot yet.
I use my hands to wash my back. You?
Same - I can reach all parts. If I couldn’t, I’d grab a something on a stick.
Same here. Guess OP is not that flexible.
I dunno. I used to be flexible as hell, but was also too damn broad across the shoulders to get everywhere. That was even before I started lifting seriously; lifting just made the area I couldn’t reach bigger.
Somewhere around 16 I hit a spurt and suddenly couldn’t reach a zone between my shoulder blades. It was maybe hand sized. In my twenties, it was about an inch or two bigger, but I could still do all the stretches fully before lifting, and that included shoulder stretches where I could end up almost flat with my arms behind me.
Nowadays, I’m just old and stiff, and can’t scrub anything right on my back.
I strained my left arm and its cannot reach quite as far as my right now and even then im pretty sure I was more flexible in my youth. At one point I was able to grip my hands just barely diagnoly on my back but I knew some folks that could like grip their wrists behind their back. I have long arms to so its definately a lack of flexibility.
I have one bad shoulder
Understandable
I use a scrubbing brush with a long handle.
I got one of these things
Works pretty good and you can put some force down and really get that back nice and clean.
Whats it made of, and how do you clean it?
It’s made of silicone so it’s quite easy to clean.
Ah like my handso. I might buy one, thank you
I don’t. The mind-controlling alien parasite attached to my spine doesn’t let me when I try reaching for it…
You gotta take your time getting them used to it, a little splash here and there and then build up untill you can be in the shower for a good amount of time, mine loves it now.
Hi Londo. Hows Centauri Prime these days?
That’s not even a loofah
Might be a regional thing. Where I’m from, that is indeed a loofah. Synthetic, yes, but still called a loofah.
I bet that the number of people that think this is biodegradable because it’s a loofah is > 0
I can’t explain the marketing, they call all these things loofahs. Just a normal sponge at the end of mine lol. Mostly just get something on a stick and enjoy the same smug cleanliness.
Get a fairly stiff brush, it feels really good, like scratching an itch that you couldn’t reach :)
I made a comment and said lufa but meant loofah and meant this thing not on a stick.
Doesn’t the towel get wet?
A belt-like loofa that you hold on both ends and pull from side to side.
Yeah. First I ball it up and scrub the perimeter before unfurling it and scrubbing back and forth at different angles.
Right hand goes high, left hand goes low, then you criss cross apple sauce
Bend the arm the ouchholyfuckalmostreach way. Scrub. Then bend the arm the owfuckalmostjesuschrist way. Scrub again. Easy!
Maybe come over the shoulder from the top right th- ohpffftfortheloveofgodsoapinthemouth pfft pffffft… PFFFFFFFFT. Done
I’ll be honest… Not very well. Pretty much squeeze my loofa at the top of my back so the suds run down, then rinse. No backne or any other issues though
I just reach back there. I have these crazy things on my arm called “elbows”.

Long ago I planted a colony of sentient microbes there, and bade them subdue the area and keep it free of vermin. They have tamed the wilderness and established a sophisticated, well ordered civilization. Although recently I have been feeling a lot warmer.
Set the showerhead to “Power Blast” and hope and pray.
Lather up my partners front and get them to slide up and down on my back. Then it’s my turn!
I use a brush on a long stick.
