We\u2019ve researched and tested dozens of filtered shower heads \u2014 these are our top picks that are effective, easy to use, and help us save water.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve ever suffered from dry skin or scalp, eczema, or brittle strands, hard water may be to blame. Most of the US water supply<\/a> is considered \u201chard water,\u201d aka water with extra minerals. While not all <\/em>minerals in hard water are dangerous, there is <\/em>the potential for contaminants like heavy metals. You\u2019ll often see those same effects of hard water in our skin, hair, and even build-up in the shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the benefits of a filtered shower head? <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

One easy way to reduce hard water is by shifting to a filtered shower head. Filtered shower heads use Kinetic Degradation Fluxion (KDF) \u2014 otherwise known as a zinc or copper filter\u2014to get rid of contaminants and only pass through clear, clean water instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some studies suggest that minerals<\/a> in shower water might contribute to dryness and irritation, and shower head filters can help remove these and other chemicals that are harsh on your skin and hair. Filtering these elements out can leave your skin feeling smoother and your hair looking shinier. Plus, if you live in an area with hard water<\/a> (that’s water with a high mineral content), a filtered shower head that softens water can help reduce hard water damage to your hair and skin. While research on the effectiveness of filtered shower heads is still ongoing, many users swear by them for improving their overall shower experience and water quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re looking to make the switch, we\u2019ve rounded up seven great options worth trying. Some are full shower heads while others are filters you can add onto your existing shower head \u2014 and some even reduce our daily water use or improve water pressure. Reap both the wellness and <\/em>sustainability benefits \u2014 and enjoy softer, more nourished, and shinier skin and hair along the way. \ud83d\udebf<\/p>\n\n\n\n
