Troubleshooting:
Some people have an issue with the water not being as hot as they would like, this can be due to the mixer or the pipes. If this is the case, it is important to let the water run for a few minutes before you take your shower, this will help the water to be warm enough before you take it.
For those with long hair it can be challenging to wash under cold water but it is possible, just put your hair under the water for a few seconds to wet it and then rinse it under the same amount of hot water. Ultimately, if you can make it through the battle of the showers without putting your health at risk, it will give you a boost to your self-discipline which will be helpful in other aspects of your life.
