Cold Showers, Yay! or N-n-neigh!

[Guest]

I cannot go straight into a cold shower without feeling a shock to the system, so I usually start showers with warm water, go hot for a bit, then go cold.

I take a cold shower every morning and sometimes in the evening. I started doing this 8 years ago. About once a year I take an ice bath, I stay in the tub for 1 minute, then dive for 3 seconds and then I get out of the bath. One day I wanted to check how long I could stand under a cold shower, I managed to stand for 5 minutes. I like the cold.

No way, cold showers aren't my remedy

It's difficult to force yourself to take them, but I did indeed notice that my skin was quite glowing for the time when I was taking cold showers. The nice part is that it does not need to be frigid per se; it just needs to not be particularly hot. Tepid water will not hurt your skin; it is specifically hot water that can inflame or dehydrate your skin and hair.

I like warm showers normally but if it’s a really hot day then i might.

Depends on what situation I'm in.

If I want a cold shower, I'll just step outside when it's raining. Ireland will give you a cold shower real quick.

I do this when I’ve barely slept to try and help wake up.

No way, I don't like the cold would rather have warm or hot showers. Unless I've been sweating then a little cold would be nice.

Only in summer if it’s a hot day or I sweat a lot

My showers have to be hot enough that when I get out there is visible steam coming off my body.

Definitely a neigh to cold showers.

I see every need to avoid cold showers.
