WHAT IS HARD WATER and DOES The UK HAVE IT?
Hard water is water that contains high amounts of minerals like calcium and magnesium. These minerals offer great nutritional value to a healthy diet, but they can be very problematic for your hair and skin.
Additionally, increased lead failures are detected in the UK’s water supply as well as increased iron and chlorine by-products which are all harmful, according to The British Drinking Water Inspectorate. The DWI website also publishes regular reports about failed disinfection practices.
HOW IS HARD WATER LINKED WITH HAIR LOSS and SKIN PROBLEMS?
Hard water can lead to hair loss when calcium components make foaming agents in your shampoo more difficult to rinse off, leaving behind soap scum (leftover shampoo and calcium) that coats your scalp and clog hair follicles. The clogged hair follicles, as a result, reduces healthy nutrients from reaching your scalp and may contribute to hair loss.
Residue also clings to your skin and dehydrates. Even after your face is washed and dried, the impurities still linger on your skin. It becomes dry, acne and eczema prone and more sensitive.
SO, HOW CAN I HAVE BETTER HAIR AND SKIN?
EASY!
Your shower water affects your hair and skin just as much as the products you use. Instead of spending $$$ on cosmetic products later to fix hard water damages, why not prevent them from occurring in the first place?
The first step is to purchase a shower filter to help you remove impurities from your water. KLEAN uses a filter medium called KDF (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) to stimulate the Redox Process. KDF utilizes a combination of copper and zinc to create an electrochemical reaction.
During this reaction, electrons are transferred between molecules, and therefore new elements are created. This process also helps change harmful contaminants into harmless components. Free chlorine, for instance, is changed into benign, water-soluble chloride.
With the same reaction, some heavy metals such as copper, lead, mercury, and others, react to plate out onto the medium's surface as well.
The first step of every shower routine should start with quality water that prevents damage to your hair.
