Which Is Better?
Choose Natural Loofahs if you value sustainability and prefer a natural exfoliation experience.
Regardless of the type you choose, regularly replacing your loofah (every 3-4 weeks for natural, every 1-2 months for synthetic) is essential for hygiene. Always allow the loofah to dry thoroughly between uses to prevent bacterial growth.
