It’s normally called a few things our house
Shower puff
Shower flower
Puffy thingy
Fuck sake!ive washed that bloody thingy of stepdaughters yet again!

Depends if she’s dumped it in the wash basket cos she can’t be bothered to hang it up

Shower puff. I use mine until they eventually start going baggy, takes about 6 months. Then I keep them for cleaning the bath, they do a great job scrubbing and the cleaning solution goes further too.

Scrubbly

Scrunchie

DontTalkBloodyDaft · 23/07/2019 21:10

Scrunchie here.
It gets chucked in the washing machine once a week with the towels.
Then when it's knackered I use it to scrub the bath.

Shower thing

Although ds aged 7 called it a Bumfresh the other day which worries me slightly as I thought the puff was mine and no one else used it!

Hmm Confused Shock Oh dear! Lol Grin

You can put them in the washing machine.

But then don't do what I did and forget to NOT put them in the dryer! Shock Grin

My Ds age 3 find one in a shop at the weekend and cashed it a scrubby dubby!

That's our name for them now!

Shower puff.

JaimeBronde · 23/07/2019 21:12

Shower puff & I chuck mine in the washing machine with the towels on a 60c wash. I put them in a net laundry bag as otherwise they start to unravel.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 23/07/2019 21:14

Puff.

I wash mine. I keep mine for ages. Probably far longer than I should. But it means I use less shower gel.

Wincarnis · 23/07/2019 21:16

it’s a bath lily in the Body Shop, and a body polisher in Boot’s, but in my house it’s known as “the scrubber”

Fatted · 23/07/2019 21:18

It's a scrunchy in our house.

woodhill · 23/07/2019 21:20

You can wash them. I don't throw them away unless they unravel

Gindrinker43 · 23/07/2019 21:22

fairislecable · 23/07/2019 21:23

I thought it was a body polisher.

MrsCBY · 23/07/2019 21:24

Body puff.

GimmeBread · 23/07/2019 21:24

I bought a natural bath puff thing from Tesco once which looked like the business. Once it was wet though it was like washing yourself with a tennis ball!

Medicaltextbook · 23/07/2019 21:24

Shower puff, but I love bubble cloud.
