The Summer has turned out to be hot and sticky most days so far. Although I usually like my showers to be steaming hot, I find myself taking mostly cool showers in the morning, just to get some relief from the heat.
I was wondering how many other people do this during the Summer months or do you still like to take a hot shower not matter what the weather is like?

I like to take a warm shower. However, in the summer as hot as it has been, I find myself taking a cooler one at night just to cool off from the day from sweating.
It has been quite humid lately. Sometimes I also take a cool shower in the morning to start the day. It does help a little in the long run.

I'm the same way wachit. My showers tend to be somewhat cooler in the summertime than in cool weather. I have taken a steaming hot shower during the summer and I felt all sweaty after I got out, like I needed to jump back in the shower just so I could cool off. Talk about gross. LOL

Yea, that's quite me!
I much rather have a nice warm shower if possible.
Occasionally though, I would just go cold shower for variety lol.

It is very hot here where I live as well, but I just cant seem to get myself to take a cool or cold shower. I feel uncomfortable. I for some reason need the water to be almost scalding when I take a shower. I have beeen told though that the hot water on your skin could cause premature wrinkles so I am trying to add in a little cool water each day.

Cold showers are invigorating, hot are relaxing. If you're going to do something you need to be really alert for, take a cold shower. If you're going to bed or relaxing, take a hot one. I like to do a cold rinse at the end of my morning shower to get me going, it also makes my hair super sparkley. In the winter tho, hot showers cause it feels so good!

I take it warm it has a little cold chill to it. I just cant stand a super hot shower when it is burning up outside.

I like steamin hot showers unless i've just finished working out then i like cool showers. It cools you off faster if u take a cool shower after workouts. Showers are relaxing tho no matter what kind you take. I've always enjoy diff soaps too. i collect diff soaps.
