Many of us don’t realise the negative effects hard water has on our skin and hair. We simply apply a whole host of expensive creams and hair masks that provide a quick fix for the symptom instead of tackling the underlying cause of our dryness.
The minerals present in hard water combined with soaps, shampoos and shower gels create a grey scum instead of a proper lather that leaves you feeling clean and fresh. This sticky, pasty substance can leave a residue and even sap moisture from your hair and skin.
In order to achieve any kind of lather around 75% more product is required, and even then you’ll rarely feel properly clean afterwards. Not only are you forced to buy toiletries more often than you should, countless people in hard water areas end up spending hard earned cash on expensive moisturisers that may not be necessary.
