Why You Should Take COLD Showers!
You don't realize how much damage you're doing to yourself when you take a warm or hot shower.
Great for Skin And Hair!
Cold Showers are surprisingly good for your skin and your hair!
Hot Water can dry your skin out! It also can dry out your hair.
When the cold water touches your skin it seals your pores; It causes them to contract. Which is great after shaving to prevent razor bumps! Although with shaving warm water is good to help open your pores so you can get a closer shave.
If you just colored your hair, Washing it in cold water can prevent the hair color from coming out.
Wakes You Up In The Morning!
If it's before bed, It's probably not a good idea to take a cold shower, But a cold shower can help you wake up in the morning!
It can give you an extra boost in energy to go about your day!
Improves Circulation
It can help keep you looking younger, Having good circulation is important for many reasons. It's great for cardiovascular health.
If you work out a lot and are sore, This can help you with that as well! It will speed up your recovery time.
How Do I Start!?
Many of us can't handle immediately going straight to cold water. So A great way to adjust, Is to alternate. Make the water warm, After a few minutes, Make the water cold! That way you'll gradually get used to it, Instead of being overwhelmed all at once.
This variation in temperature also helps with circulation! Your body will have to try and warm it's self up!
It Saves Money!
Unless you love the coldness of the water, The cold shower will encourage you to hurry up! You'll use less water by taking shorter showers!
Also, you'll save money on your heating bill Because you don't require heated water.
You don't have to take a cold shower every day to see the benefits! But it's worth a try! If you end up liking it, You may never go back!
and for when you are a little too excited but no one else is around, cold shower cures the urges right away lol.
There are more pleasant options.
It depends if you want the wonderful urges to be cured or if you want to be helped in the right way. Cold shower is great especially if you want to chill out stress and the weather is too hot for comfort...good post @kaylinart , keep it up

WOW! Thank you @cryplectibles!
I have tried for a month, it feels great. But harder during winter
Very true, cold shower is beneficial in many ways , in addition to that, cold showers also builds up massive will power. Doing something you are so resistant to, every single day, right when you wake up, takes a lot of mental strength. And overtime, this mental strength and discipline will become an automated habit that echo’s into every area of your life.
Hell no! I still remember the days when the shower went cold due to no hot water because I lived with 3 women! I'll just take your word for it.
Take one each day because of the heat :-)
Very true what you say in your post, but I am one of the many people who can not and should not shower with cold water, because I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and the pains become more intense with the cold and the muscles are contracted.
I was thinking the same thing. Pain is so bad with cold water and fibro. I tend to take very warm, borderline hot showers. I'll often finish with cold only on my hair.
Cold showers are good, but they suck compared to a nice warm shower.
I try to finish off a warm shower with a cold shower.
