From shower heads to shampoos there are products that’ll help you mitigate the harm of hard water on your body
Most of south-east England has hard water (containing higher levels of minerals, metals and other mostly harmless contaminants) which can impact hair and skin – including pre-existing conditions such as eczema, dandruff and dermatitis – negatively. You may need much more shampoo and bodywash to obtain a spreadable foam, and heaps of conditioner to make hair manageable. Even then, hard-watered hair and skin can be dryer, coarser and duller. It’s particularly brutal on textured hair.
