You jumped straight into the point which is a rarity in Youtube nowadays, I must thank you for that

It's insane how much hard water can impact the health, look and feel of the hair. I was one google search away from cutting my hair off.

I’m a BIG victim of hard water. I used to have a really shiny, healthy, long, pretty and thick hair that everyone’d ask for my haircare routine. Then we moved on another city and without realizing, water ruined my hair and skin... I lost too much hair and now I have fine, unhealthy, frizzy hair. And if we collect water in a bottle, after a few hours we can see the dirts accumulate at the bottom. I used shower filter too but can’t say it made a huge difference. My hair type also changed, now it’s wavy-curly and I started to use Curly Girl Method. But I see it’s not enough, I’ll try to rinse my hair with apple vinegar+filtered water from now on. Edit: I also find a recommended chelating shampoo in my country, I’m gonna buy it as soon as possible!

I had super soft and long hair and when I moved to where I live now my hair went into a total freak out and adjusted and had NOT been able to grow or stay soft and shiny and it’s been driving me I just bought a water filter.

I use filtered water from my fridge and I have a filter on my kitchen faucet. I fill up a bucket and use ONLY that when I wash and rinse. It works!

I watched a lot of videos with so much fake content from big YouTube channels and here I am with some genuine information. Thankyou

[baileymathis]

I cant possibly compliment you enough for how great you are at delivering this content succinctly and clearly!!! You nail it every time

I'm stuck at college at the moment and even though I expressed to my school that I'm also dealing with skin issues using the hard water, there is not much I can do. I really like how informative this video was and it gave me a little relief because when I come home I use bentonite clay to detox my hair.

[jocartlidge]

Fantastic, informative post Jannelle thank you. I had no idea this was a thing but now I've just checked and found that I live in a very hard water area I'm ordering a chelating shampoo pronto and will hopefully see an improvement in my dry mop. 5 min Fridays is a great idea. Please keep them coming

Thanks so much for all the suggested products! It might sound strange but I was relieved that it was the hard water and not my thyroid or hormones messing up my hair. I’m still very angry that they would allow this crap in our water without warning but I’m grateful that it’s something I can fix. Thanks again for sharing this info!!

Hard water has had such a bad affect on my hair. It's caused thinning on my scalp where-as the rest of my hair is really thick. I only started to thin when I started living in an area that has hard water.

[fadingstarlight]

after I moved to the coast in Spain, , the hard water here has completely destroyed my hair. I lost half my length from it breaking off, my scalp is always itchy and it's thinner than ever before. My hair is now frizz not curly. i''ll check out your amazon and hope one day I can have my normal hair back hahaha (crying inside)

[cathyschmick]

Oh....my goodness!!! I am so happy I stumbled across your video! So I do have a shower head with filter and will try the distilled water rinse and going to the store NOW!

[tarotlondon]

I live in London, hard water. In Sweden my hair turned to full on waves so now I actually keep a rainwater spray for London and now my hair is super wavy and shiny again. Great video thanks!

[lilpett]

I live in Tampa! When I first moved here, my scalp freaked out like nothing I’ve experienced in my life. So thankful for your tips! Amazing!

[juliepomeroy]

Thanks Jannelle! I definitely have medium hard water! I'll have to look at the ingredients in my shampoo to see if it has chealating ingredients! Thanks for the info!

[michellemobakeng]

Thanks for the tips.
Hard water is not enough mentioned when it comes to lacklustre hair, breakage and hair loss. Thanks for pointing that out.
Should the club soda be used hot (rather than cold) and in the last rinse?

[longyarn]

You're way ahead of the curve Gurl! Just now seeing other YT'ers making videos on this. All the info Squished into 5ish minutes! Good job!

[Alexa-gwpm]

Twin cities here! I totally agree I looked up my city’s hard water level and we have very hard water. I get Chelating shampoo from Sally Beauty. .

I've been watching for awhile now and I'm kind of overwhelmed of where to start on my newest curly journey. I used to love my curls. I did co-washing for awhile while I was transitioning to washing my hair less and am now down to shampooing once a week. I cut out most heat styling, towels (I use an old cotton t-shirt now), sulfates, parabens, and silicones at that time (probably about 6 years ago). My issue is it doesn't seem to matter what I do, my hair ends up frizzy and the curls go wonky after it dries. I learned, from you 😍, I have low-porosity hair but I can't for the life of me find a moisturizer that actually works. They have lost most of their curl pattern and it causes me to wear my hair up more than down causing breakage. I tried a protein shampoo and that didn't help either. I just don't know where to start and I want my curls back. 😔
