Hot towel or cold towel after a skin fade, I side with cold now

I used to do the hot towel thing on every client finishing a skin fade. Thought it opened pores and made the shave look cleaner. Saw the difference side by side on two guys last month. Hot side looked red and puffy for an hour. Cold side looked tight and calm right off the chair. Switched my whole Saturday flow to cold towels on the back of the neck and the fade line. Any other barbers make that change after seeing it up close, or am I overthinking this?
