So I have been doing cold showers every single night for a week straight and I hate to say it, but it is terrible, I literally hate it. I thought it would get better the more I do it, but it is actually the opposite for me. I hate the feeling of cold water on me and I don't know how long I can keep doing them. I always loved the shower at night before when I did steaming hot showers because it was a good place to relax and reflect on the day and my thoughts, but now this comfort is gone and I hate it. My skin and hair do look a lot better tho I admit that, but idk I think I will go back to hot showers sooner or later.

Mix hot and cold showers for ultimate benefit.

The beneifts for the skin from cold showers may be legitimate, but instead of taking cold showers you could just take warm showers or lukewarm showers for a really short time and that would do the same thing. It seems like cold showers are just a mental thing, people like it because it gets them going with the extreme temperature change and shock to the body. But if you dont like them there is no point

Just increase the temperature a little bit. It should be cold, but you don't have to freeze your ass off either.

I take a hot shower then do the wim hoff then take a cold one then a hot one again to finish it off.
Water here hurts in winter, it's close to 0 degrees C, so i skip most days in winter.
In summer months (roughly 6 months a year) i take cold showers only.
I don't do it for any specific purpose, but when i go to the atlantic beaches or the mountain rivers, im the only one who can swim there without complaining all the time about the water temperature.

Cold showers are legit as fuck, cures depression and reduces anxiety like crazy. You gotta make sure to turn the shower knob all the way to COLD to get the most of it, don't gradually bring the temperature down like a bitch, ice cold always. I've found that it's also very effective at reducing symptoms of opioid withdrawal for a few hours after a cold shower. Glad someone is bringing this up because it should be an obvious giga halo for your well being and developing courage. Makes my hair and skin look better too.

The longest cold shower i've taken was 20 minutes, and somehow that's easier to do than asking out a girl.

Ofcourse it temporary removes depression because body enters in survival mode.

I like warm shower because it stimulates the warmth of hugging a girl i will never get

I get it in a form of swimming for 10-20 seconds before I get used to the cold + I swim like crazy
feels great, but I hate cold showers, many of my good ideas that I had in life originate from swimming
or showering

Just do this bhai, use my method and get benefits of both

Start with a hot/lukewarm shower, wet your body and apply soap/gel/shit to your body and massage until lather. Then wash it all off with a ICE COLD shower for both the benefits

FYI :-

Hot water - start by wetting feet first, moving up to knees, waist, chest and then lastly the head

Next step

Cold water - start by wetting the head first, moving down and continue to waist, legs, and feet

I've heard dermatologists say you should only wash your face with cold water. Anyways, you should go back to taking hot showers. I really like relaxing in the shower as well. If it really makes your hair better just wash your head and face with cold water before washing the rest of your body in hot water. Wash your head and body separately. You shouldn't wash your hair every day anyways.
