As much as there're lots of people that bathe with sponges,have also come across people who don't bathe with sponges.

Quite a close friend of mine recently told me he doesn't bathe with sponge and I never knew all this while,he just gently rubs his preferred soap on his body and then washes it off with water,I was like I can never bathe without using a sponge,guess everybody's used to what they tend to always do.

But bathing with a sponge & without a sponge,which is better? Some say bathing with a sponge is better because it kind of removes more dirts by its scrubbing technique,but most foreign movies I watch,in scenes of an individual taking a bath I hardly see the individual using a sponge,it's like some use soap and some don't even use it at all,just showering,however the case may be,I will always go for sponges,how do you take your own bath?
it depends.. If u ar using a bathing tub nd u intend to spend time bathing, u may end up removing al the dirty on ur body. Bt if it is just 10 mins bath, abeg use sponge b4 u go hear am.

Not that i hate sponge but i didn't use sponge for a cumulative of 3years and I didn't see any difference. So I adopted the style. What more could be a proof?
Re: Bathing With Sponges & Without Sponges. by babs01(m): 8:51am On Nov 25, 2014

I'm the only guy that uses sponge in my house.. My other housemates (tho Canadians) just use soap and wash it off.. embarassed
The weather and atmosphere there is almost dirt free, Canada has clean environment, etc. Plus people there have soft, tender skin and they don't sweat much(courtesy the cold), that is why they use no sponge, only soap.
But in Nigeria, with all the dirty for road, the dust during harmattan, the hot sun making you sweat profusely, and the hustling wey go make u develope tough, rough skin, why pesin no go use sponge.

then why is it that after bathing and supposedly # SCRUBBING OFF THE DIRT# when we use white towels to wipe our bodies, the towels get dirty??

Cos nothing is ever 100% sure. But isn't it better to at least be closer to 100%?

Hahaha! I agree 101% ...the oxygen you even breathe here is just too fresh. I only sweat when I hit the gym or dress in layers before stepping outta the house and of course yes, when I mistakenly add too much atagigun (ground-pepper) to my food. grin

I used to be super dark while in Nigeria, but now I'm noticing changes in my skin, all the skin irritation I developed in Naija don dey clear. Now, I will say I'm now 'chocolate' not black as charcoal I used to be..

But the white girls here no wan gree, these people sexy die and they go after African guys grin Leaving the African girls at the point of nowhere. grin grin

It's the other way round over here lmao grin We nor dey too look them side, na friend zone we dey put them, so as not to make them feel they're unimportant because na same country we come from.

A Canadian girl would go an extra mile to hang out with you. Na dem dey spoil market for 9ja girls. Need I to say, winter is here and it's getting supercold day by day, some of them needa lubricate their worn out machines.

I don't mean to sound offensive tho, they're reaping what they use our eyes see back home. We don't actually give 2 bleeps about them here..

With all said and done, I still wanna end up with a Nigerian girl grin grin

See you soon!

#teamironsponge ,u know why i love iron sponge?its cuz it makes u look clean .
some ppl that there hands are not long enough to scrub there back will go for the toilet brush with long hands.
Re: Bathing With Sponges & Without Sponges. by drololaaof: 11:02pm On Nov 25, 2014
Using sponge or not is semantic ,do you use sponge to wash ya hand?NO THOSE in arid land ,where there is drought and famine or those incaserated do they use sponge? No.it is like those using the tooth brush to clean their throat or tongue
If you wash your body with or without spounge for 1-2 hours then rub behind your ankle dirth will still come out

Sponge or no sponge, both are almost if not the same. Have u tried no sponge bathing? Try one, put one a white shirt on dat day to check its effect. What happens to the polo and armpit of the shirt after some sweating? Is it similar to using sponge?

The remaining 2% dirt on d body after a sponge scrub is responsible 4d dirt on d towel after maybe one week of use whereas d 30% dirt left on d body after a soap bath makes d towel dirty in less dan 3 days.
