A back scrubber for use with a variety of different washcloths includes an elongate shaft, a frame attached to a distal end of the shaft and a set of flexible teeth extending from the frame toward the center of the frame. The frame defines an inner area over which the washcloth wraps to define a back scrubbing surface. The tips of the teeth form an opening through which an excess portion of the washcloth that wraps over the inner area and the frame enters to be in contact with an under side of the back scrubbing surface of the washcloth.
