Stellar washcloth alternative!December 1, 2008 Having been given an earlier version of this product by a Japanese woman in Hawaii in 1988, I was delighted to discover this product available now. These "towels" make the smelly, soapy washcloth obsolete. They foam well with soap, then rinse clear. They really scrub the skin, doing the exfoliating that leaves skin soft and smooth. The long length facilitates back-scrubbing and foot-cleaning. Try one and you won't go back to using washcloths.
Travellers' must have scrubbing towel; durable & easy to packOctober 6, 2008 I've used Salux Nylon bath towels for more than a decade now. I first learned of these in Japan.
I've found no other bath towel that is more durable for the price. A single towel usually lasts me 6-9 months.
I often travel for business. I can't stand the hotel bath towels that are never long enough to scrub my upper back. Besides that, the towels are too soft to provide any scrubbing power.
So, I carry one of these nylon bath towels in a Ziplock bag and keep it in my shaving kit. The towel dries out in about an hour (time for breakfast), then I put it back in the Ziplock bag and I'm ready to go.
The towels come in several colors -- blue, pink, yellow -- should that matter to you. The towel is durable, easy to carry, and reasonably priced (buy lots at reduced prices to save on shipping).
best scrubber everAugust 5, 2008 I've been exfoliating with various scrubby devices for years now but this one is better than all the others I've tried. It's a very vigorous scrub so if you're not used to that, take it easy to avoid that "freshly peeled" feeling. I love finally being able to scrub my own back thoroughly! For the rest of my body I cut and sewed the cloth into mitts -- one cloth is enough for 2 pairs of mitts.

I have used a Japanese Beauty Cloth for a dozen years. The cloth is long-lasting, invigorates and scrubs the skin very effectively and resists mildew. If you like a vigorous scrub, it is the best!
