You probably know that your daily shower plays a role in the wellbeing of your hair (and your skin, too) - and it’s not just due to the products you’re lathering up with. Smoother and healthier hair is also dependent on the water you shower with. Water is categorized as hard or soft depending on its mineral content, and that varies from location to location. In California, we have mostly hard water. 
The most common compounds found in hard water are calcium and magnesium, and even sometimes metallic elements, according to the Water Quality Association. Compared to “soft” water sources like fresh rainwater and filtered bottled water, hard water has a tendency to cause buildup in sinks, bathtubs, and faucets, leave mineral deposits on our dishes and glassware, and can even cause clothes to become stiff and faded after washing. 
Different hair types react differently to the two types of water: soft water will help tame and smooth coarse, damaged hair, while hard water will sometimes reduce oil buildup for those with fine, oily textures. 
If you are in the camp that wants to a long-term solution to hydration, shine, and smoothness, we recommend investing in a shower head filter that removes the offending minerals found in hard water. 
Hot tip: When selecting a filter, search your zip code in EWG’s tap-water database to see what substances have been found in your area’s water supply, and then look for a filter that is certified to remove or reduce those contaminants.
