Which do you prefer, and why? I've heard that cold ones are better for acne; are there any (acne related or not) health benefits to either kind?

I don't know anything about health benefits..I start off semi-hot to get clean and cool down with cool water.

Acne is caused by the staph bacteria. A warm shower though will open your pores up more so that when you wash your face you will be able to scub the dirt and oil off your face better. Follow with a cold rinse to close your pores. Other than that there is no benefit one over the other,

i take warm/hot showers due to the fact that 1) it's a lot better than cold, 2) the steam from the hot water opens your pores, thus helping your acne problem. opening your pore will bring out your oils nd after you can just wash the steam nd oil away. when you're done pat your face, smearing with a towel, spreads existing oil that you have on your face to other areas. that's why you break out

I prefer hot or warm because I can't stand the cold.

i think its good to have a hot shower but turn it to cool when you're nearly about to get out. cold water makes your hair shinier and smoother, and its good for circulation, it closes your pores and the cuticles on your hair.
