You know, sometimes the old adage, a fool and their money are easily parted really comes into play in beauty world. Meet The Lynx Manwasher – the in-shower gadget that you never knew you needed. Centuries of washing have successfully produced clean men with no help from a shower gadget, least of all one with an ‘exfoliating derma abrasive texture’ on one side and a ‘high wearing micro-mesh’ for more sensitive parts. I think, to be honest, there are better things to spend £3.99 on – a sponge, maybe. If you look at the picture, you’ll see they’ve sexed it up in black and red so it looks a bit sporty but it’s not really any different to this:
…which is £1. Incidentally, if you google ‘manwasher’, there is actually someone who will, for a fee, come out and wash you. *raises brows*.
PS: The Manwasher was originally promoted in the US as the Axe Detailer as pointed out by a BBB reader. I am actually starting to wonder if they really are alluding to balls when they say ‘sensitive, hard to reach parts’… is it really a ball-washer, and are balls really hard to reach in the shower? I’d say that’s a short-arm issue if they are, rather than a ball issue.
The Finding Nemo one made me laugh as my man has a Buzz Lightyear one! I’m sure he’d rather his Buzz one than that Lynx one any day!
Haha, I had to laugh (uncomfortably) at the thought of ‘Manwashers’ for hire.
Truth be told, I’d buy that Lynx Manwasher, only for the fact I’ve two teenage sons. It’d mean I could stop hiding my Muji Cloth – the visions of them see sawing it in the shower give me nightmares!
This was marketed as the the axe detailer in the states, you should youtube the advert for it, its hilarious.
*giggle* I’m waiting for a bloke to use the abrasive side on the sensitive parts. I asked hubby if he wanted a man washer and he now thinks that Monday has made me crazier than usual. Then I told him about the man washer service and now he’s threatening to take my internets away:( Jeez men, so sensitive
I found this so funny, a man who you hire to wash you. That’s is just funny, thank you for sharing and raising a smile on a Monday x
Haha, this just reminds me of the Australian ad for it! You have to watch it, it’s hilarious!

maybe ‘hard to reach’ really means it’s a bum washer…?! scary…but i think it’s really just a way of makng a shower pouf into a gadget for the male sale. stupid & evil marketeers at work, for sure, but it wouldn’t succeed if there weren’t men who need their sponges, poufs and other acoutrements to be manned up in order to buy & use.
