Hard Water, Chlorine, Dry Skin? The Real Problem Might Be Your Shower Head

It’s a Problem Nearly 85% of U.S. households have hard water. That means your water contains high levels of calcium and magnesium. While these minerals aren’t harmful to drink, they can wreak havoc on your skin and hair. Add in chlorine, and you’ve got the perfect storm for dryness, irritation, and even scalp issues.

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, hard water can lead to soap scum buildup and clogged pores—two things your morning shower should not cause.

Could Your Shower Head Be Making It Worse?

If you're using a basic shower head, chances are it's doing nothing to protect you. In fact, over time, mineral buildup inside the shower head can make your water flow uneven, harbor bacteria, and even reduce water pressure.

Instead of a daily refresh, you may be getting a blast of harsh water filled with irritants.
