- Asian loofah is the most common and hardiest of the three loofah types. Very dense, keeps its shape even when wet.
- Mayan loofah is native to Mexico and Central America. It is a great balance between Asian and Egyptian loofah. Not too hard and not too loose. They are usually smaller.
- Egyptian Loofah Queen lasts longer, has more even distribution of fibers, has no sharp edges and is fluffier, softer and more resilient.
- Since it is whiter in color than Asian and South American loofah, it needs no bleaching, which erodes the fibers.
- The Egyptian climate and the genetic characteristics of the spiece yields a loofah that is almost free from the longitudinal ridges that cause a loofah to split after few uses.
- Unlike harshly abrasive scrubbers and artificial sponges, a loofah's firm but elastic fibers are round in cross section and are less likely to scratch skin.
