What are the side effects of constantly using warm/hot water to bath?

I've been doing this for over ten years... I hear it wrinkles the skin.
How true is this?

Linda, I have been doing it for over 15 myself and I have smooth skin. It probably wrinkles Oyibo skin hence their theory. Remember, blacks don't crack!

Linda, how could you shower with hot water? You no be old woman! Put those boxing gloves away, I'm kidding! Whenever I'm in Naija, I put ice blocks in the bath and sit there. I'm not joking. Regardless the weather in Nigeria, I could never bath with hot / warm water. It will be too hot for me. 

I don't know about your theory though. I'm young, fresh, smooth skinned and extremely handsome, .. [...knock, knock, knock....wooing Linda with a CraigsList Advert!] .... In about 55 years from now, I'd be 80, then I'd know if the hot water / wrinkle theory is true or not. 80? With the rate at which I'm pissing Linda off, it'd be a miracle if I make 80. 

Here you bath with hot / warm water cos of cold weather. Like now, the weather has gone awry.  If the theory was true, we here in London and other cold climates would have wrinkled up.

You probably meant "to show" in that case....NO SIDE EFFECT. Beside water that is hot enough for your body to handle is good for blood circulation, and gets rid of bacteria on he surface of your skin among other benefit.

Found this on the web Linda and I believe it should help:

WARNING: LONG POST


1. Pores enlarge
To clean the face of dirt and oil, warm bath can indeed help. But if you do not close the activities of a warm bath with cold water, then your pores will open and getting wider, leading to easy formation of acne.

2. Lowered sperm quality
Bath or shower with warm water is not good for the testes. Based on research in 2007, soak for 30 minutes in warm or hot tub water can reduce sperm production. But this negative effect is reversible (can change).

Exposure warm or hot water can negatively affect sperm because it makes the sperm takes a long time to mature. The best known of sperm development in cold environments, this is why the testes are located outside the human body, namely in the scrotum.

3. Fetal harm
Warm water bath is actually not a problem for mothers who are pregnant, but keep in mind is the temperature. When the water temperature is too high then the activity could harm the baby shower. High temperatures, especially in the early days of pregnancy can cause birth defects in offspring born.

In contrast with cold water, especially in the morning it gives benefits to the skin and blood vessels such as:

1. Creating a better blood circulation
If the warm water makes the blood flow moves toward the skin, the cold water makes blood flow to the organs of the body. Cold water bath further improve blood circulation system. Good blood circulation can prevent many serious diseases such as hypertension, hardening of the arteries and the appearance of varicose veins. This can be practiced with a warm water bath is preceded and ended with cold water.

2. Luminous skin and a youthful
Shrink and close the pores with cold water to prevent entry of dirt and oil that can clog pores and cause skin imperfections such as acne. Another benefit, a cold water bath to reduce the swelling of blood vessels that cause the emergence of dark circles under the eyes. By doing so, take a cold shower can make skin radiant, healthy and youthful.

3. Create a healthy hair
Cold water can make hair healthy and shiny as it can close the cuticle, making hair stronger and prevent dirt accumulate on the scalp. By closing the pores will make the hair stronger when combed, thus preventing the loss and also slows the growth of gray hair.

4. Giving spirit in the morning
At the time of the ancient samurai, warriors always pour cold water on the head every morning by practicing Misogi. It is a ritual purification at the spiritual level. According to the soldier, a cold water bath to give encouragement, to help start the day fresh and new adventures. Cold water certainly helped to wake people who still feel sleepy in the morning.

Doctor told me so too, he recommended cold water.

Chilling said...

I bath with hot water and even when i’m in Nigeria it must be at least tepid water. If i bath with cold water i’ll get very chesty. What i do is after cleaning the bath, i run the cold water in the sink and use it just on my face. For my hair as well, i use tepid to cold water except when i’m doing a touch up and getting the relaxer out.

Linda Ikeji said...

@Chilling u are female? ghhhhhhaaa..hear that sound? that's me falling to the ground in shock! tot u were male

Anonymous said...

linda have u thanked rare poster for his/her advice???,courtesy demands that u do so ok???

Chilling said...

Really Linda? I’m soooooo female and a very ladylike female for that matter. Lol. Are my posts chauvinistic or is my writing/typing style male-centric? Now that you know i’m a woman, i hope i don’t sound gay in my posts! I like sports and i know i comment on all things sports here.
If i were male i’ll try to hit on you like Surprise and that’s if Surprise is really a “he!”
Maybe one day, you should ask us to send you our pictures and you can do a collage of them without any names. That will be fun!
BTW, why do you have 2 FB accounts & do you use them? You are such a star to have 2 FB accounts!!!

Linda I rarely post here but I prefer to read your blog Something that has come across to me is your ability to beg for people to remain in your blog bu yet, you never seem to be grateful when someone leaves comments. Linda you should try and thank some of the people who post in your blog from time to time. I am not saying that you should thank everyone of them but at least say hi once in a while to those who come into your blog on the regular and post comments.That is how you get to maintain your followers. Anyways you are too fragile to post this but this a message directed to you only.

Continue posting my dear.

Anon March 14, 2011 4:10 PM - she does all; she begs, she pleads, she thanks, she pulls our legs, she jokes, she also answers back and she’s fun. Thanking some people and not thanking some will look like she’s appealing to just a group. Maybe on the next anniversary of the blog, she can just say a general thank-you. Just my opinion

Anon March 14, 2011 4:10 PM said...

Linda that message was directed to you and not for everyone to read

Shakara, i have heard you

Mariaah said...

Good information from rare poster. I like very warm water for bathing even when I was in Naija but I think I unconsciously pour cold water or lukewarm water on my face..

Linda Ikeji said...

Due to having an autoimmune disease I find soaking ,sometimes many times a day, in very warm/hot water. I now have discolourazion on my calves and the back of my thighs but no doctor can tell me what it is! It is not Reynaud's as i also have that and biopsies just showed discoloured, irritated skin. Does anyone have any ideas????

I believe everything said was very logical. But, consider this,
suppose you wrote a catchier title? I ain't saying your information isn't solid, but suppose you added a post title that grabbed a person's attention? I mean "What are the side effects of constantly using warm/hot water to bath?"
is a little plain. You should look at Yahoo's home page and watch how they create article headlines to get people to click.
You might try adding a video or a pic or two to get
people interested about everything've written. Just my opinion, it could
bring your posts a little livelier.
