how are you going to turn on the water without entering the shower cabin
put your hand in and turn it on from the outside
My arms arent that long
Have you considered growing longer arms?
Have you considered manning up a little (in a completely gender neutral way).
Alternatively, use a shower umbrella.
Thanks im cured
How fucking massive is your shower that you can't simply reach into it and grab the handle?
The door is opposite to the actual unit
Aim the shower at the wall, turn it on, get out
Turn it on in the sink, then it may only take like a second in the shower (if you're lucky with your plumbing layout)
I think I need a diagram of this plumbing layout
As a shameful normie whose sink is entirely separate from my shower, I'm having a hard time picturing this
If your hot water line comes from [wherever, in my case the basement] and passes by your shower before leading to a sink, it's likely that the water by your shower will also be hot once it comes out hot at the sink.
It might be! I'll try it, thanks!
With a rope.
Why would I be inside the shower before the hot water shows up
I turn on the shower at maximum hot, undress, THEN introduce cold back to a comfy temperature and step inside.
Sometimes I take my pants off before my shoes...we are not all the same

Pro tip:
Always max hot water (or hot water only if separate) to warm up shower fastest and save water. It's a win win.
Turning it 3/4 or something to desired temperature takes longer to heat up and wastes both hot and cold water.
Alex Honnold?
Yes, on the Thank God Ledge, on Half Dome.
That's gonna be a no from me dawg
The photo is somewhat deceptive. It's actually angled away from vertical slightly. He's resting on the wall behind him.
I used to only have cold water up until a month ago and I'd get confused when those cold shower body builder trent went online but yeah now that i'm getting used to it i can see the difference.
Edit : To avoid confusion i used to live in a place with noderate climate and only recently moved .
Where do you live where they just got hot water?
Who just got ? I was just talking about me specifically i ised to live somewhere with moderate climate sure in the winter it was cold but not that cold . Now i have moved states and it is kinda really cold here so .
In Iceland, it depends on the volcanos.
When you build toilet on the side of a cliff so that you can have privy ledges
Why wait even? Cold water is still water.
