How to Prepare Store Bought Loofah?

[munchkindobby]

Hi, I'm thinking about buying a whole natural loofah rather than buying pre-cut ones, and I was wondering if there are any preparations that I have to be aware of? I've never actually seen loofah, so any tips/ help would be greatly appreciated. :hug2:

You'll need to verify with the seller that it hasn't been bleached or treated with chemicals. Most loofah is used for the health and beauty industry, so it's always good to double check even though they say it's natural.

Some chinnies stores online are selling whole loofah's too. I buy mine whole and cut and dye them myself.
