If they are totally bald (ie shave their heads) they use soap like they would on their face.  If they have a cuff, they use shampoo on that

I showered for 15 minutes, I alternated shampoos between Garnier Fructis and Pantene Pro V, I do not use bar soaps, rather I used Red Zone High Endurance Body Wash(smells good). I prefer luck-warm water, I do not shave or brush teeth in the tub, that's nasty and after every shower, I spray  "Clean Shower™" to do away with scums and residues.

Exfoliants, depilatories, anti-wrinkle cream. Methods for the elimination of stretch-marks, halitosis and unpleasant body odors. Hair extensions. This all sounds pretty modern, doesn't it? It could perhaps be a list of advertisers from a fashion magazine on the newsstand on the street today. Yet all of the above were also concerns and creations of ancient Egypt.\n\nIn no other country or culture, was the concern with beautification and body care so extensive. Their interest in beauty transcends time- it is not restricted to a specific period. Cosmetic implements, particularly eye-makeup palettes, have been discovered in the earliest graves. Yet Cleopatra VII, last of the Ptolemies, was herself credited with writing a book of beauty secrets, an art that she was universally acknowledged as mastering. Vestiges of the ancient Egyptians' concerns with beauty and body care linger even today. Modern Egyptian glass perfume vials may be as treasured and coveted today as were the carved alabaster unguent pots of distant ages. American shampoo manufacturers tout Egyptian henna and the virtues of Aloe. Every few years, eye makeup styles based on those of ancient Egypt reemerge once again in popularity.\n\nEgyptian concerns with beauty and body care transcended economic status. Although many of the artifacts that we are able to analyze today derive from the upper classes- kohl tubes bearing the names of Nefertiti and her daughters have been found, for instance- body care was considered a prerequisite for all Egyptians. Records show that sufficient body oil for daily use was one of the basic supplied issued in the form of wages paid to even the lowliest workers. Cosmetics and body care were a common daily concern cutting across all society divisions, just as they do today.\n\nBody care was no triviality, but a central part of daily - and economic- life. Egyptians used body scents and incense (for fumigation of the body and clothing and medical as well as temple use) in tremendous quantities. Most of it had to be imported. After timber, the trade in cosmetics was perhaps the chief reason for Egyptian foreign commerce. Modern interest is piqued by Egyptian funerary practices and yes, many aromatic substances were necessary for the after-life and for religious practices, yet they also held many uses for the living.\n\nAncient Egyptian concerns with beauty and body care transcended gender lines. Women and men both used cosmetics and body oils. The need for skin protection and moisturizers in a hot, arid climate was perceived as necessary for both genders. Both sexes, of all classes, oiled their bodies regularly. Many of their ancient formulae remain to us: while some were obviously targeted towards women (there are several suggestions for the removal of stretch marks following pregnancy), the many suggestions for stimulating hair-growth and eliminating bald-spots were probably directed largely towards men.\n\nAncient Egyptian concerns with beauty and body care transcend their distance from us. The past may sometimes seem very remote to us- oh, it's interesting all right, even intellectually stimulating, yet we often feel removed from the past, all too aware of the distance of years and history and perceptions. It is hard to envision an area where history and people come alive more than in the study of ancient body care and beauty. No where is the bridge between humans more firm and sure. Egyptian concerns mirror our own. They, too, worried about weight gain and hair loss. An ancient manuscript is entitled The Beginning of the Book on How to Make the Old Young. A title like that could be a best-seller today. If we could time travel and speak to the individuals of long ago, the subject of body care would be easy common ground.\n\nOur extensive knowledge of the Egyptians' beauty regime can be credited to their burial customs and also to the arid climate which preserves artifacts so well. The earliest graves contain cosmetic impleme

Use shampoo, conditioner, and just chill.  Don't go metrosexual and use every little thing out there, that's just gay.

Most women are very particular with hygeine and personal care than most men do and most of them have daily rituals for their bodies. Such as using body wash/cream, lotions, mousturizers and body oils that make it supple and just like a baby!!! :-)

They use wet wipes for their bodies.  They use rinseless shampoos that hospitals use for people who can't bathe.

I have a tidy up so to speak.\nThis is personal preference, some people like to leave it totally natural, while others go the full hog and bald as a babys bum !!!  Some people trim and style it like an upside down triangle and hearts(even colour it).\nThere is a few ways off removing the hair, the easiest is waxing but not to every bodys taste.  Another favourite is shaving - be sure not to go over the same area to often as this will irritate the skin.  Trim the hair down to a short length before shaving with a pair of scissors, then have a warm bath, this will make the hairs softer.  Try and use a fragrant free female shaving foam, never dry shave. Use a new ravor every time, this will prevent infection. Hold the skin taught and go once in the direction the hair goes and then once in the opposite direction.  Rinse well when complete.  You may finish off with a very fine dusting of baby powder for a smooth finish. You may notice that the more you carry on shaving the less irritation you will have and less ingrowing hairs, and the itching will ease but unfortunately will never truley go away.\nTo make it fun or even part of foreplay, you could always get your partner to carefully do it for you, and this way there won't be any missed bits.

Hand them a bar of soap when they walk into the joint.  Put a background picture of a pile of dog crap on their computer Desktops.  As a last resort, you can wait until they sit down and drop one of those green car air freshners shaped like a tree around their necks.\n\nThere's no excuse for fat lazy slobs not bathing.\n\nFor the nerds: Don't let them in.  You don't need those repulsive people in your place - they'll drop your "cool points" quite a bit.

Style. Who knows. They can also wipe themselves by brushing their head on their arm.
