Hard water, while seemingly innocuous, can pose significant dangers to the health and appearance of your hair. Laden with high concentrations of minerals like calcium and magnesium, hard water can leave behind mineral deposits that build up on the scalp and hair strands over time. These deposits create a barrier that blocks moisture from penetrating the hair shaft, leading to dry, brittle strands that are prone to breakage and split ends. Additionally, the alkaline nature of hard water can disrupt the natural pH balance of the scalp, causing irritation, inflammation, and even exacerbating conditions like dandruff and eczema.
