I could practically write a novel about this subject (I am sure some will think that I did by the end of this post!)

Bathing a man is a very sensual, very intimate experience for me, in some ways more so than sex. I love the freedom that allows my hands to explore Him, caress Him, feel His muscles under the silkiness of His skin as my hands glide over Him. Every part of His body becomes sacred to me, and it is easy for me to slip into a mindset of worship in these moments....

Before offering such a service, I do my best to discreetly observe how He bathes/showers Himself. I learn the water temperature He prefers. I also note at what point a man shaves Himself, as I find shaving a man to be an exquisite honor.... His face, His neck, His head.....

As for showering before the bath, I do not care one way or the other, though I suppose if He were truly dirty, it would be a good idea. Still it would never be my place to suggest such a thing. He would need to be showered off gently at the end of the bath because of the additions to the water, but I am happy to offer this, with a hand held shower attatchment.

Music adds to the atmosphere of a relaxing bath. Outdoor sounds, such as ocean waves, or a babbling brook can also be very soothing. I prefer something to be playing, as it defines a space with it’s sound, and prevents outside noises from interfering with the mood. Even in a silent area I prefer some kind of sound to encompass us. Music or peaceful sound keeps the space sacred on another level.... that is difficult to explain.... but yes, I prefer soothing sounds to be part of the experience.

Candlelight is required if it is dark, unless of course there is a fireplace in the bathroom. I keep several candles in sconces on the walls in my bathroom, and import others from various areas of the house as needed. I try to purchase only unscented products for the bathroom, so that I am free to co ordinate the scents of each bath, according to my mood, and His need, without the possibility of clashing scents. I prefer them to be dripless, so that nothing causes me to take my attention from Him, even for a moment.

The absence of fragrance applies to the products I will use on His skin as well. I often scent the water with essential oils, or make a bath tea, depending on my mood, and what is going on with His body, so I am careful that any other scents I might use are harmonious with what is going into the water.

To offer varying experiences I have created milk and honey baths, using cans of condensed milk, and local, raw honey. I sometimes add a healthy splash of orange blossom water for an even more seductive scent, and a little massage oil, such as jojoba to float along the surface of the water, providing a sensual glide to all that I do.

I have always worn a sarong to bathe a Man, though sometimes it is tied in such a way as to leave me topless.

For the record, bubbles are totally my thing when I bathe myself, but are not at all when bathing Another. However a bubble bath built for two can be different story all together, but in my mind this changes the dynamic from bathing Another as a service.

I have been known to use a small amount of whatever scent He wears, to make scented soaps and bath products guarenteed to be found pleasing, for His everyday use, but I prefer to combine natural scents for the bath I am honored to offer. I prefer to design scents that have nothing to do with what He wears everyday, and in no way are affiliated with work, or mundane life.

When offering a bath, the addition of rock salt, epsom salt, and baking soda are my favorite combination to the water, as these create a softened, silky thickness that aids in the sensation of caressing Him. I like the way the water moves on my hands when it is thick and sensual, not to mention how it allows my hands to glide over Him as I rinse Him. (It is important to note that shaving must occur outside a bath of salt.... and you must be aware of any open skin areas, as the old "salt in a wound" addage definitely applies...)

With my hands I apply a gentle soap or bath gelee. I prefer glycerin bar soaps to lye based, but I prefer soft soaps over bar varieties. When using soft soaps I put some in a small, plastic dish that allows me to dab what I need onto my fingertips without the annoying pumping of a dispenser. The dish is placed on the far side of the tub from me, because I am all over my side, and do not want to spill it.... but also because I love to lean myself over Him in the tub.... bodies never quite touching....

I wash every area of His body with my hands, using different strokes, to create varying sensations. A sensual bath can easily have as many sensations introduced to the skin as a good massage can offer, though while bathing I concentrate on sensations for the skin, as opposed to deeper body tissue and muscles. A man’s skin in an of itself is such a wonderful thing.....

I prefer a soft, thick sea sponge, or a thick, thirsty wash cloth, but never to bathe Him.... only to absorb water, which is then squeezed over Him, in a water fall effect, to rinse away the soap I have massaged into a lather, one area at a time. I will squeeze a second and third application of rinse water, knowing that it feels remarkable for Him, but also simply to watch the water cascade down His body. It is easy to worship a man this way.

When I am done rinsing I run my hands over his skin again, under the guise of checking for soap....but it just as likely to be because I can not keep my hands off Him at this point.

If it were to be my call, I do not prefer a happy ending while in the tub. There are places better suited, in my humble opinion.... however, if I were to be pulled into the tub with Him, that might change my mind. But being a girl who aims to please, I have of course obliged with a happy ending, whenever it was desired.

As the weather dictates I heat the towels in the dryer as I bathe Him. This way the towel offers only comfort as I pat Him dry, rubbing where He prefers... I am mindful that not everyOne feels dry when patted, even with a complete absence of water on the skin, there are Those who prefer to be rubbed dry. 

I sometimes apply light oil before following Him into the bedroom, but if a massage is in His near future, I am happy just to dry Him.

The mood from this point on is completely up to the Dominant. I consider it a job well done if He falls asleep during a massage, or later while cuddling with me. I am equally pleased when He has His way with me instead. I have no agenda whatsoever beyond having received the honor of bathing Him.
