bathing

Lets begin with undressing a Free. A slave does not undress a free unless commanded to do so, if you are so commanded by a Master you will begin with His boots then move to His tunic and then His trousers and socks. You will then fold them each neatly and place them aside, you then will prepare the bath. If it is a Mistress you are undressing you will begin with her veils, then her robes then her undergarments again fold them neatly and place them aside

Steps to preparing A bath

1. pour cool water into the tub.

2. add either perfume or scented salts to the water. (you may also add flower petals but enquire first)

3. taking the heated kettle that will be by the fireplace and warm the water till it is slightly warm to your skin.

4. Refill the kettle and place it back on the fireplace as you will need it to warm the bath water again.

Steps to Bathing A Free.

1. the free will most often sit in the tub, before you begin washing them make sure they are comfortable.

2. Take the wash cloth and lather it up, then begin with the feet, moving up the legs, be sure to get between the toes.

3. Then move to there stomach and chest, be sure to scrub every inch.

4. Move around the tub as needed as the tub is not against the wall in most places, now its time to do the arms and hands, make sure you get the arm pits well

5. Check the temperature of the water often as you don't want the Free catching a cold

6. The hair is a bit more tricky and a lot of free perfer to do there own hair washing if they do want you to do it. Take a small cup and wet there hair, I have never seen shampoo on Gor so You would have to lather your hands with the soap, then apply it to the hair, then again take the cup and rinse the soap very well out of there hair.

7. Ask them to now stand and wash there buttocks and genitile area, do not touch there genitile without first asking permission even in cleaning.

8. Get a towel and hold it open for them, drying them off from head to toe.

Other personal care things you will need to know is how to do there nails. There is nail polish on Gor and FW's like to paint there nails both toes and fingers. To do this you simply take the polish with the small brush and then carefully apply it to there digits.

You will also need to know how to tend to hair, On Masters you will need to know how to groom a beard and do a haircut. Some Masters like having there hair braided in a simple braid. You will be handed a small pair of scissors or you will find them in the Hair kits in most of the Kurtzal bath houses, you will also need a comb to trim a beard. You will take the comb and run it down the length of the beard, stopping where the Master has requests, IE a half inch off the beard. Then taking the scissors you will cut at the comb to ensure evenness. For Mistress's you will need to know how to comb out there hair, practicing on your sisters will help. Then you will need to know how to do fancy braids and buns, french braids, french rolls and many other types this can be left up to your creativity.
