| Yes it can!! Water makes a huge difference! Even in your skin. I used to wash with poland spring water bottles because the water is too hard where I live and then when I would visit friends and shower at their place, my skin had such a difference and hair was softer because the water is different. I currently have a shower head but I think it is for purifying the water, I didn't know there were shower heads designed for making softer water? Do you mind posting a few products on here so I can look into getting a soft water shower head? Thanks!! |

Yes!! Hard water can wreak havoc. My hair is like brassy straw and my hairline is wrecked if I don't have a shower filter.I use the Sprite filter, available at Home Depot and very inexpensive. I couldn't live without it. You may need to rinse your hair more (my sister says her hair doesn't feel rinsed with the filter),but in my opinion it's worth it.
There are also hard water clarifying shampoos & treatments. There is a good one by Ion (at Sally's Beauty Supply) that helps to clarify all that hard water buildup off of your hair.
I also think hard water can thin your hair, mine is generally thicker when I have the filter. |
Yes!! I live in an area with hard water. My hair can look dull and I will need to clarify. Usually after that, my hair behaves better and my colour (blond highlights) is brighter.
In addition the Ion shampoo; the Malibu line is recommended. I buy mine at Cosmo Prof but it can be hard to find retail. Both are recommended on MUA hair forum in addition to using a water filter. |

Hi Ollie,
I don't own the sprint filter, but have the oxygenator filter from showerfilterstore. I found out about it via an NCN newsletter. It really makes my hair feel silky soft and very shiny and my hair is highlighted. Just love it! I would look for a brand that states that it filters out chlorine and other toxins. Of course, its wonderful for the skin as well and helps keep it moisturized in the winter when the heat is on and skin gets dried out! Sometimes you need to pay a little bit more to get rid of all toxins, fluoride included but it's so worth it!! Best, Aprile |

We have been living with a brand new dug well since Oct.
Yes, hard water wreaks havoc on your skin, hair, laundry, pipes, etc. The 1st sign was the white residue that was left in the dishwasher & on the faucets. My husband fluffed it off saying we'll get to it later.
One day he was wondering what happened to his hair 
We are getting a whole house water filtration system installed next week.
I can't wait! |
