Have you considered growing longer arms?

Have you considered manning up a little (in a completely gender neutral way).

Alternatively, use a shower umbrella.

How fucking massive is your shower that you can't simply reach into it and grab the handle?

The door is opposite to the actual unit

Turn it on in the sink, then it may only take like a second in the shower (if you're lucky with your plumbing layout)

I think I need a diagram of this plumbing layout

As a shameful normie whose sink is entirely separate from my shower, I'm having a hard time picturing this

If your hot water line comes from [wherever, in my case the basement] and passes by your shower before leading to a sink, it's likely that the water by your shower will also be hot once it comes out hot at the sink.

It might be! I'll try it, thanks!

Aim the shower at the wall, turn it on, get out
