How often should you replace your loofah?

Replace a natural loofah every 4 weeks, ideally after 3 weeks. A plastic shower pouf lasts about 2 months.

A loofah stays damp in the bathroom and traps skin flakes. Bacteria grow easily in it. A Cleveland Clinic dermatologist therefore advises replacing a natural loofah every three to four weeks.

  1. Rinse the loofah well after use
  2. Hang it to dry outside the shower
  3. Replace a natural loofah every 3 to 4 weeks
  4. Replace a plastic pouf after about 2 months
