It is definitely not bad. Rumors might say that you would have muscle spasms or something like that but that is truly mistaken because muscle spasms occur when a muscle is overused and tired, particularly if it is overstretched or if it has been held in the same position for a prolonged period of time. In effect, the muscle cell runs out of energy and fluid and becomes hyper-excitable and then develops a forceful contraction. That said, it is not bad to take a bath after working out. Watch the movie "Wanted." After they assassinate, they go for the ice bath. See? It's actually a positive thing. :)

Is taking a cold shower bad for your skin?

No. Taking a cold shower is part of hydrotherapy. This stimulates the skin's microcurculation for improved skin tone and is also useful for circulation. However you must be careful not to make the shower too cold, as the body might go into shock and it will also be a strain on your heart, so it is advised not to do this if you have heart problems.
