Hello all! Do you recommend any eco friendly loofah alternatives, or anything really to scrub your body in the shower with. The fact that most loofahs are made from unrecyclable plastic concerns me.

    If you don’t want to use a real luffa made from the luffa gourd, you can use a simple cotton washcloth to scrub. They can last for decades, wash in the laundry with your towels, and biodegrade/compost after a long and useful life.

    A friend of mine uses dried sea cucumbers. pretty common in SE Asia I believe.

    Edit

    Do not use a dried sea cucumber. read thread first.

      You are thinking of dried Sea Sponge, you can get them in pharmacies and cosmetics stores where I live
