I've decided to get a pH-lowering shower filter for my flat this summer. The plan is to wish it for my birthday in June when my dad asks if I want anything.
I just came back to my flat from spending over 2 weeks at my mom's with her much better water (used to be even better but neighbour destroyed the well and she had to switch to communal water), and I'm sort of dreading washing my hair here again. The water at my flat is exceptionally alkaline (pH above 8.5) and it really shows in my hair. It's so much drier, I need much more conditioner, and it's more difficult to brush out. I find myself wanting to do a big chop when I deal with my hair at my flat, especially if I'm using subpar products - and using up those is my project for this year.
