It really doesnt matter i dont think but i know if you wash your hair with colder water it makes it shineyer and softer - so try both ways next time when you take a shower and see what you think is better

I think its better in hot water because the hot water can kill any germs or bacteria in your hair that can lead to lice. Plus, Who would want to take a cold shower??

its better to wash your hair in hot water becasue the dirt washes out better and the bacteria that is in ur hair dies easier, the grease also washes out better. well i hope that this helps!

Well cold can dry out your scalp causing dandruff, and hot can irritate and sometimes even scorch your scalp. Use warm water.. perfect temperature.

hot water wares your hair out and ruines it faster with split ends and such. Cold water makes your hair all tangly and not so clean. Warm water is the best. And it cleans it better too. So i would wash it with warm. :)

not hot. not cold. warm. hot water is bad because it takes the color out (if you dont have dye it makes your normal hair lighter) and cold water makes your hair tangle, and break. so wash your hair with warm water.

I heard that it is better to wash your hair in warm water, and when you are done rinsing out all of the shampoo and conditioner, to re-rinse your hair in cold water. Cold water is said to seal in your hairs natural moisture.

Daisy answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 12:34 pm:
Washing your hair in hot water is better. You get the circulation going which increases hair growth and also gets the shampoo and conditioner out of your hair better than cold water. If you run cold water over your hair at the end after you've washed it then it will make it shinier.

FunnyCide answered Tuesday April 26 2005, 12:17 pm:
Hot water is damaging to your hair. It can cause split ends and encourages dull, frizzy hair. Washing your hair in cold water helps your hair to be shiny and more controllable, but cold water is... well, cold! But it's better than having damaged hair.

I have heard that it should be warm but not hot. I also have heard (don't know if its true) That the colder water rinsing will make your hair shine.

It depends. But if you'll use conditioner then it's better to use hot water in washing your hair. Hope I helped.

It's better to condition your hair in cold or lukewarm water. It's just healthier and better for your hair that way.
