Cleanse and exfoliate your skin like never before with our African Net Exfoliating Sponge! Here is where to buy authentic African net sponges. Ours are shipped directly from Dakar, where they are known as djampe (jom-pay). But you may also have heard them called sapo sponge in Ghana. No matter if you've heard of djampe, sapo sponge, african net rag, african bath net, african exfoliating net, or african net sponge, you've come to the right place.

Made with quality nylon fiber, this sponge dries quickly so it doesn't harbor microbes and stretches to fit your needs. Its fast-drying design makes it easy to maintain for years of use. 

How To Use An African Net Sponge

Wet and lather very well rubbing soap between the sponge. When it's sufficiently bubbly, start scrubbing head to toe. Go back and do it again in case you missed something! Hold each side in one hand and use to access those hard to reach areas on your back.

If you have sensitive skin, don't rub too hard. But, you do want some pressure to exfoliate the dead skin.

How to Clean African Net Sponges

It's very simple! Throw them in the washing machine. Any temp, any cycle. Tumble Dry. You can also handwash and hang dry.

What are African Net Sponges Made Of?

In the old days, they were made of natural fibers, today, nylon fibers are used. We are on a mission to find 100% cotton sponges. Stay tuned!

Are African Net Sponges Good?

They're more than good. They are great! As a woman who loves and lives for exfoliation, the first time I tried a djampe, I was in love. I live in a very humid climate and natural loofahs would always mildew or grow rancid. I loved the way the djampe was dry in minutes and it was so multipurpose. 

How Long Do African Net Sponges Last?

Nearly forever. But at some point, they grow a little limp, and you'll notice they're not making you as shiny as they used to and that's when you should cut them into smaller pieces for cleaning rags or face wash.

How Often Should I Wash My African Net Sponge?

When you are washing yourself, you are essentially washing your sponge. You can toss it in with your weekly laundry. ​

Why are they called Net Sponges?

African people have been using the fishing nets to exfoliate for centuries. 

What makes African Net sponges any better than Loofahs or Korean Exfoliating Cloth?

  • They dry quicker
  • They're not painful or irritating to the skin
  • They're helpful to reach anywhere by anyone, even people with mobility challenges
  • They don't harbor bacteria
  • They last longer
