I can’t stop using it.
Yeah, me too.

Uncoincidentally, that happens to me with most things made in Japan.
Like a true Japanophile, my bathroom is like an onsen.
Like toro or Chanko Nabe, exfoliating with one of these towels is highly addictive but physiologically harmless.

Ive tried everything in the exfoliation game: sugar, coffee grounds, salts, brushes.
I still always revert to my beloved towels.
The length allows me to clean my back without needing to contort into an udon noodle.

Clean?
The lathering thread, as the brand calls it, sets this towel apart from other exfoliators for me.
Many times, hand towels dont foam up like loofa the way I like.
They simply absorb the product and transfer it to your skin for a lackluster experience.
If the soap doesnt sud, did I even get clean?
Goshi, however, whipped up into a generous lather while stripping my dead skin away.
This soapsud effect is aseriousbonus.
Not really, but it may as well be.
I thrive in tropical, humid climates because it feels like taking a deep breath for my skin.
I need as much moisture as I can get.
Occasionally, I will have a couple of very mild red bumps on the back of my upper arms.
Keratinized hair follicles cause dry, rough, bumpy patches, which can be treated by exfoliating and moisturizing.
Since using my Goshi, I havent had a single bump.
Watch as it works up into a perfect lather as mentioned above, and start scrubbing.
I never understood how people without triple-jointed arms could scrub their backs.
This removes all of my stress around maintaining exfoliated shoulders.
Goshi is long and effective enough to give me a professional scrub at home.
Its an extremely time-consuming process and leaves your body clean but very raw.
Conversely, a long-lasting Japanese exfoliating towel typically costs between $10 - $20.
I have a Goshi in my bathroom and one in my travel bag at all times.
