I'd be willing to pay the plumber to put in a couple extra hours and put in a couple more pipe bends, if it meant not getting splashed with cold water every day.

You would need a circulation pump and a bypass valve on the sink in the bathroom or on the water heater. There still would be a very short period(time depends on pipe layout) of cold water unless you tear out the shower and put the bypass valve at the shower supply.
You wouldn't even need a plumber if you feel comfortable screwing lines together, but you might need an electrician if you can't add an outlet.
They cost under $400 to add, parts only.

Or you could spend $20 and get one of those shower head extensions so you could hold the shower head way from you until it gets warm.
