Benefits of taking a cold shower
I have been taking cold showers for a while now and now have one every morning. I find it energises me and I feel awake instead of drowsy and I need this as I do research in the morning for the articles I write. I have not got used to jumping into a cold shower. I tend to take a normal shower and do my hair and body etc and then for around 5-10 minutes I adjust the temperature setting until it gets to the coldest setting and I stay under for about 5 minutes.
Electric Shaver
I remember, when I was younger, going on holiday and I was hung-over from the night before (you know the type of holiday the 18-30 type and every night is just drinking) I always dove into the pool in the morning, which was cold, it cured my hangover after 10 minutes swimming and my headaches would disappear. I did this a few times in the course of the morning.

Philips Norelco's best shave yet, the SensoTouch 3D gives you the ultimate shaving experience. Its GyroFlex 3D system has three dynamic parts that move independently, flexing outward, pivoting around, and tilting inward, following the natural contours of your face.
Also, the UltraTrack shaving heads catch every hair in just a few strokes with three specialized shaving tracks: slots for the long hairs, channels for the longer hairs, and holes for the shortest stubble. And the Patented Super Lift&Cut dual blade system lifts hairs to cut comfortably below skin level. This razor gets the job done without leaving any stray hairs or stubble behind.

There may be one drawback, if you are not religious like me you might find god very quickly when the cold water first hits me I tend shout some expletive or 'Jesus Christ!', 'oh my God!' Don't worry I am not getting all religious here it's just an expression for me.
I have since found out there are many benefits to having a cold shower or a cold bath, I haven't really done the latter, which I hadn't realised until I did some research on the subject.
I found an article on CNN about a centenarian who attributes his long, healthy life to having a cold shower every morning read it here
How it helps the body
In an article from http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/showers.html the following benefits of cold water were noted
Brings blood to the capillaries, therefore increasing circulation throughout the body. Cleans the circulatory system. Reduces blood pressure on internal organs. Provides flushing for the organs and provides a new supply of blood. Strengthens the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems. Contracts the muscles to eliminate toxins and poisonous wastes. Strengthens the mucous membranes, which help resist hay fever, allergies, colds, coughs.
Some evidence
A lot of people have reported that it helps panic attacks, although I haven't seen any scientific backing for this it is purely anecdotal. However panic attacks bring blood rushing from areas of your body to those that need it most to get you ready for the flight or fight syndrome. Normally you would start to calm down after a while however if you suffer from panic attacks your adrenaline is still floating about in the body and your para-sympathetic nervous system does not shut down properly. It may be that a cold shower helps to shut down the system and readies it for heating your body up and getting blood to your vital organs.
Again some more anecdotal evidence, taking a cold shower every day helps to ward off colds. This is probably something to do with it strengthening the mucous membranes which, as mentioned above, helps to reduce fever, allergies and colds.
Try it for 21 days and see if you notice a difference.
