Do you like cold showers?

[MrDawn]

Do you ever take cold showers? If no, why?

 

[Cedric]

No! I despise them. Really. If there's anything I hate it's cold water.

 

[Toni]

Nope, I hate having a cold shower. I've tried it once and hated it.
I'm going to stick to my warm showers, lol.

When I was a teenager I took cold showers. I wanted to get in and out of the shower fast since I was lazy most of the time and didn't really want to take a shower, but my mom forced me to lol.

 

[Paul]

On a hot day, they're nice.

 

[Empire]

Maybe on a nice hot day, but UK doesn't get hot days that last more then two days

 

[Liam]

Only after a big gym session or run. I find it cools me down and helps to stop the sweating.

 

[Cory]

I feel like I'm a popsicle in cold showers, so I never take them. I like my water to be warm.

 

[Empire]

Right now it's 2c in my bedroom and heating is off

 

[Ladyvamptress]

No! I like showering in water that is as hot as I can stand it... even on hot days, I still like my shower to be warm.

 

[Empire]

In winter I take a hot shower, well, warm shower, not having it way to hot as that's no good. As soon as you step out of an very hot shoawer you get cold right away

I prefer scalding hot to where my skin is red from the heat. Not quite a burn, but quite close lol. I tried colder showers to help my hair, but I just did not enjoy it!

Prefer hot showers but I had my water heater go out right before summer started and delayed fixing it until the end of summer. Cold showers really aren't that bad and are apparently good for the skin but honestly a hot shower feels so much better instead of trying to rush.

I read somewhere that cold water soothes your muscles after a hard weight training session. But this comes with the caveat that you’ll gain less muscle than you would without the cold shower.

When our water heater was getting swapped out for a new one, I had to draw an ice cold bath and then heat water up repeatedly on the stove to warm it up. That wasn't fun. I almost spilled it on myself on my way to the bedroom bathroom. And then when I was done, the water was still chilly but it was tolerable enough for me to get in there and get washed up.

How was it chilly? Why didn’t you just boil water in a kettle and mix that with cold water to get the right temperature?

I was heating up 4 pots of water, and they were boiling hot. I think the water was so cold that it was just cooling it off as soon as I was dumping it in.

Maybe try it the other way round? Pour cold water into hot water? I’ve done this when the shower wasn’t working and didn’t have issues.

Hmm, I'll have to do that next time.
