What is a wash cloth?

A washcloth is a small square or rectangular piece of fabric, typically made of cotton or a cotton blend, and is used for personal hygiene purposes such as washing the face, body, or hands. Washcloths are usually soft and absorbent, making them ideal for cleaning and exfoliation. They can be used with soap, body wash, or just water. Washcloths should be washed regularly to prevent the buildup of bacteria and other harmful germs. They come in various colors and designs and can be purchased individually or as a part of a set of towels.
