Hot/Cold Shower Facts:

Hot/Cold baths and showers date back thousands of years, starting off in the Roman and Greek civilizations.
The contrast between hot water stimulating blood flow & cold water creating vasoconstriction increases circulation and lymph movement. This helps improve the immune system.
Hot water soothes sore muscles, while a cold rinse aids in recovery after exercise.
Hot/Cold bathing therapies and saunas are popular, luxury spa & wellness treatments.

Hot/Cold Shower Method:

Start your shower with warm/hot water as you usually do.
Suds yourself with your favorite soap for a couple minutes.
Dial your faucet to cold water, think ice cold! Start off with a 15 second rinse and work your way up to 30+seconds.
Turn the faucet back to warm/hot water. (sweet relief!) Shampoo your hair during this time or just enjoy the warmth for 1.5- 2 minutes.
Time for an icy rinse again! 15-30 seconds.
Dial your faucet to warm again and condition your hair or use a hydrating hair mask. If you wash your face in the shower this is a good time to do it. This should last about 1-2min.
Another cool rinse! Just remember, your body is totally loving this. Try to get in a full 30 seconds.
Turn the water to warm/hot one last time and make sure any product is fully rinsed off hair and skin.
Always end your shower with a cold rinse to make your hair shiny and skin healthy! This rinse we usually keep shorter, about 15 seconds.
