Stepping into the shower to rinse off the sweat, grime, and dirt of the day sounds like the perfect way to end the night. But do you really know what is in that water? Depending on where you live it might be chlorine. Thought it's not really harmful in small amounts, you might be exposed to it everyday and not even realize it. Some water companies will add chlorine to kill any harmful bacteria. It's great for killing all those dangerous pollutants, but it could also cause some significant damage to your skin and hair.

​

This might be the reason why your skin might feel tight or flaky after a shower, or why your blonde hair turns brassy when you haven't gone swimming since summer. Chlorine can make your skin dry or sensitive, irritate your eyes, make your hair frizzy and change colors, and may even aggravate athmatics.

​

This chemical strips the skin and scalp of its natural oils. That's why you'll notice some cracking or dryness on your skin, wich can lead to premature wrinkles. And because your scalp is also losing tose oils, your hair is losing vitamins tht would keep it shiny and healthy.

​

The best way to get rid of that chlorine s to install a shower filter. Not everyone drinks water straight fromthe sink, and you'll often see a filter for your drinking water-so why not for your skn and body?

​

You can find inxpensive shower filter at your local hardware store.

​

Remember. No more brassy locks, just luxurious healthy skin and hair.
