Forgive me for starting yet another thread regarding hot or cold water shaving.

It is just that I have noticed an angle that hasn't been mentioned yet and thought it was worthy to reflect upon.

All of us here have generalised (and theorised) on which temperature of water best. And we were all talking from a personal perspective.

Could it be that it all depends on our 'starting' temperature so to speak?

I mean, when I was living in Egypt I could only shave with cold water because hot water / after shower prep etc used to give me red spots all over. Now that I live in London, I can do with warm water without too much damage. And once I was in Boston in the winter and could use even hotter temperatures..

So what I am saying, is that it is NOT necessarily one temperature better than the other and neither is it that each person is different, but rather depends on our outside environment's variance with a human body's status quo.. if that makes any sense lol
