i have been in guangdong for 4 years where the weather is quite hot through the whole year and the temperature difference is not obvious there.
people there prefer to take bath in warm water through the all year.but in my hometown,we do like to bath in cold water in hot summer.
what about you? which do you prefer to bath with in hot summer? warm water or cold water?

I love hot showers but durin the summer I take warm ones. I just don't like freezing cold water, especially to clean my hair. I feel like hot makes my hair feel better.
We do swim in a pool a lot during the summer.

i swam in the river when i was a child but now the river is too dirty to swim.
moreover,i'm never a child.
in hot summer,the sunshine is so strong that usually the pop line outside is warm as well as the water inside.so without the water heater,the water is warm.

Cool water does feel better when it is hot. I agree with that. But I do take hot showers. I feel cleaner when I do. I just don't stay in as long.

Haha, that is funny! I was just telling my kids that they cannot get into the refrigerator! It was a heat wave here the last three days, and I saw the door to the fridge being held open, so I had to say something! The cold air that comes out feels very good on a hot day! I like to put ice cubes out in bowls to cool the air.

I prefer to take a bath with warm water during summer, because it adopts the environment(your body) around you, especially as you get out from the bathroom where the environment is warm. and you won't sweat instantly as get out and change clothes

Warm water.It's feel better than the cold one,and it's suitable for us.To most of woman and girls ,I believe that we like the warm one.But ,some men will like cold water ,but I think it's bad for their bodies.So,you should choose warm water to have a bath.

warm water bath in summer? impossible! be it morning 5 or at 12 noon(if it a Sunday) i take cold water bath during summer especially in the months of March April and May. I usually don't even switch on the geyser during summer which ends up in quite a lot of savings on the electricity bill during those 3 months at least!

I prefer to bath with warm water in hot summer.As a girl,i think the warm warter
is much better than cold water for our health.
In additional,the warm water can bath much more clean than the cold water.
And i think the warm water can enhance our body.

hi sophialin! 
i prefer to take a cold bath during the hot weather. i don't deal that well with the hot weather and i get so uncomfortable with the high temperature. but the water here in our place is always warm because it comes from hot springs underground. so what i do is either i set a side water and cool it first before i use it, or i take a bath early in the morning when the temperature isn't that high yet. i just love taking a cold splash in a hot weather. it helps me cool off.

I prefer bathing with warm water and in summer I like cold water so that I can get freshen and make myself healthy.
In summer we need to wash our sweat and they make favourable conditon for bacteria . That will make bad smell and may hamper to your health so we need to wash the body with cold water .
