Soft Water Benefits for Hair and Skin

Water is essential for the human body to stay healthy and function the way it should, but did you ever consider how it may alter the way you look?

While you may be used to hard water in your bath, shower and sink, soft water may have a surprisingly positive effect on your skin and hair. Do hydrated hair and clear skin sound appealing? Read on to discover how they can be achieved as a result of soft water. Let’s start with your hair!

The benefits of soft water on hair

Hair is made from 5% water and 95% protein. With so much protein to protect, it’s important to ensure it is not being damaged or broken down by impurities – a known trait of chemicals found in unfiltered hard water such as chlorine.

By ensuring you have a soft, filtered water supply to enjoy in your bath or shower, you’ll start to notice an enhancement in the strength and quality of your hair, leaving it shiny, soft and smooth.

So now you have a glossy, healthy head of hair. But what can soft water do for your skin?

The benefits of soft water on skin

Firstly – whether soft or hard, water is essential to the skin. When you’re not taking the steps to meet the recommended daily intake (around 1.5 – 2 litres), your skin may start to feel dried out and tired or even appear cracked or broken.

To keep your skin supple, smooth and hydrated, it’s important to understand that the skin itself is an organ and consists mostly of water. It’s, therefore, clear why it needs to stay hydrated.

Drinking any water will help your skin keep its natural, healthy glow, but soft water can do even more!

Soft water is filtered, meaning it will contain less toxic elements as found in unfiltered water such as contaminants, pesticides, lead from old pipes or even acid rain.

Softened, filtered water may remove up to 99% of these impurities!
