Hard water can leave hair feeling coated or dry. Use a gentle routine, rinse well and treat the cause before buying a cupboard full of products.
Start with the simple checks
Check the water's hardness information, clean affected fixtures gently and follow the instructions for any filter or treatment equipment. Small maintenance habits often prevent bigger problems.
When to investigate further
If the issue affects several appliances or the water's taste, colour or odour changes suddenly, contact your water supplier or a qualified professional. Product labels and manufacturer guidance matter.
