I think we all hate getting out of the shower cold and butt freezing
during the winter and I was thinking of a steam shower
that could save water, Iet you turn off the water, scrub, and then
rinse without the air being freezing.
But I'm wondering how much could it cost, and I mean does it work
using a compressor??

Keep the shower door/curtain closed and dry off before opening. Zero cost
and much better.

*The steam showers that I have wired consist of a small boiler that heats
the water to generate the steam and releases it under pressure. They are a
little pricey and require a water line and a power line to be installed.
Whatever water you save you will make up for in electricity costs. I have
never heard of anyone using steam to rinse off, but I don't stick around to
see how they are used after the installation.

Here's a sample: http://www.steamsaunabath.com/catalo...hp/cPath/64_65

Do a search for steam generators and steam showers for more info.

Perhaps a heat lamp may help you feel warm while drying off. I have wall
heaters to warm the bathrooms before going in and when coming out of the
shower.

Yep, and a little heater in the bathroom helps too.

On my recent bathroom renovation, I was taking showers before I had put the
bathroom door back in. Despite the shower door and the heater being
installed, the lack of a bathroom door led to it being drafty during/after
my shower.

Once I rehung the bathroom door, all was well again. The lesson learned was
that even a small draft in the shower room is uncomfortable.

I used to open the shower door a couple inches
before my shower was finished. Let the hot air
warm the room.

A crude compromise would be one of the "Navy" shower heads.
They're small, use little water, but the spray is quite hard and
very fine. The result is that a lot of the heat in the water
dissipates before it hits the shower floor. We keep what most
would call a "cold" house year round, and I find that my Navy
shower head really heats things up in the whole bath when I'm
showering.

Luxury cars now offer a great seating option for politicians.
These seats blow heated air onto their backside in the winter and
cooled air in the summer. If sold to voters, though, the car
seats
are modified to just blow smoke up the voter’s rump year-round

Absolutely. With the door shut, shower or bath, the room warms up.
AFter I get out, I open it an inch or two, then a bit more each time,
to help me dry off but without getting the room uncomfortably cold.
While the bathroom cools off, the bedroom warms.
