    I started to do so about 3 months ago and I love it. Haven't taken a hot shower since.

    I always do it the last 2 minutes of my shower to close up my pours and prevent ache. It works!

    cold showers is life out here. one of my roomates complains about the f---in heat out here... literally will go outside and smoke a cigarette, and takes a smoldering shower afterward every f---in time. it blows my mind, like hey i just sat still outside for 7 minutes in 113 degree heat, lemme take a dip in this boiling hot pasta water to wash all this heat off of me. #dUFk

    Always do besides a few winter mornings.
    Cold showers are better for your skin and your body

    I had a cold shower like two days ago for the first time in ages because it was hot as h--- and was lying in the sun at the beach. Nothing beats a cold shower after catching the sun all day. I normally mix it up and make the water hot every now and again tho... I feel like you clean yourself a lot better when the water is hot?

    I've been doing it pretty much all summer, and then even when it's not summer I usually do it the last couple minutes at least. It definitely feels better when you're out of the shower after too, although in the winter it's not as good even if you got the heat in your home cranked up.

    Lots of times I'll keep it cold on the body, warm on the face/hair lol.

    I've never taken a cold shower in my entire life until this year because of the 120 degree f---ing weather and even with the shower turned as cold as it can get the water is still warm because the pipes are so g.d. hot

    How'd it go? By the time I'm ready to get out, I turn the water to as cold as it can get and stand there for about a minute, all you gotta do is control your breathing and you can handle it. It's like an energy high when you get out.

    When I turned the water from hot to cold it was cold as f--- but I got used to it after like 20 seconds :jordan:

    I could have made the water even colder but I didn't think of doing it. My body feels better after taking a cold shower rather than a hot shower to be honest. Might try it again tomorrow

    Yeah that's what I'm saying, you feel a lot better when you get out. Plus, the cold water is good for your skin.
