Reply to comment by SirDuke6 in ELI5: Why does putting one foot out from under the blankets bring so much relief of heat while laying in bed? by SirDuke6
No.
You have 2 types of skin.
Cutaneous - Thick, harry, pigmented, less pores, Doesn't transfer heat in or out of your body well.
Glabrous skin - Hairless, pigment less, Lots of pores. Transfers heat well.
​
Glabrous skin is located on your palms/soles and forehead.
