Here is an example of the sit down shower.

Then it is off into the onsen area.

In a real, onsen, there are at least several different bath types to enjoy. Heaven on Earth. :)

I once went to an onsen in Arima (near Kobe), and it was a hot spring village resort type of place, and guess who didn't know he had to bring his own towel.....
 
I used to be a soap guy. But now I'm a body wash guy. I have my wife to thank, who buys all sorts of crap that litters the shower and bathroom with bottles full of colored potions. She now has me exfoliating.

Dammit.
 
I'm a girl...

oh shoot sorry, nowt it sounds that you really got a nice soft skin... I Live in a 3rd world country (lol) really ! in lima, peru, and here we do not have the amount of moisturizing products for face care or hands.
Right now im thinkin of ordering via amazon some face cleansing, and some kind of facewash for daily use at day, (in college)
sorry again
 
I guess I'm old-fashioned -- I use genuine soap. Ivory, the white stuff that comes in bars.

Same here! I've never been able to figure out how to use shower gels without one of those sponge... things... and I dislike those.

Edit: I do use an exfoliating Clearasil face thing, but I have an overly-oily face
 
Hair: Biolage Hydratherapy Shampoo, Biolage Hydratherapy Conditioner
(These products are amazing. They smell great and I often get comments how my hair looks so soft and smells good. They are $30 combined, but I still believe they are quite worth it).

Body: Dove Sensitive Skin UNSCENTED
(Unscented to leave a clean scent; I can either just go with the scent of my shampoo and conditioner or put on a bit of cologne. Unscented body wash is the way to go IMO)
 
bodywash...soap bars make my skin kinda......rough...???
o well i used to use shampoo as bodywas once when i was in middle school and had some skin trouble...just heard a rumor that shampoo kills all those irritations on skin...i donno if it worked...time just passed
 
Yes I use soap in the shower. I'm a fan of Dove Sensitive Skin Soap -- other soaps make me break out in a rash.
