I think they're just a bit late with that first stage, the hard bit isn't once you're about to go in the shower, it's stopping whatever you're doing or getting off the couch/bed that's the hard part.

I take my showers before bed. Much nicer to get into bed clean. And you're cleaning off the gunk of the day and not rolling around in it during the night. Easier to fall asleep after a hot shower or a hot bath. Oh yeah.

Yeah I love that feeling too and indulge it now and then but unfortunately there's no way I can get my hair any kind of decent for the day unless I fully wet/wash them so I have to mostly stick with morning showers because fuck washing just my head and two showers a day is wasteful :(

I read somewhere that going to bed with moist hair promoted mildew and other lovely things to grow in your pillow.

Yeah, need to take a shower early enough before bed that it has time to dry. Or just dry it thoroughly with a towel, or sleep with a towel over the pillow.

Agreed. If I could shower for 15 hours per day without dying, I'd be pushing for 15.1 hours. Heated pools are my favorite places. Not sure how people can dislike showers, aside from being exasperated at the time sink.

For me there's also a bit of an environmental concern, heating water takes a lot of energy and water is starting to get scarce here in summer, even without data centers around.

Easy solution: Put a space heater in your bathroom!

Seriously, it's life changing. Not the giant radiator ones or the dish ones, something with a fan that blows hot air. You don't want to heat some little place, you want to heat the volume of air in the bathroom.

Turn that on 15mins before you shower and getting out becomes totally painless.

If you do a ten second cold shower at the end, the last moment of agony is shortened. Because the diver reflex kicks in all the heat gets locked into your center mass and you don't feel the cold anymore. I love it now.

Plus it apparently healthy.

Being dry is fine. Being wet is fine. Being damp sucks.
