HAIR BREAKAGE DUE TO HARD WATER: PART 1

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Please check out Part 2 of my hard water hair restoration journey --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/epKUn4huhqeiqq8

[@Crystal_curls85]

Look into a water softener. I just got one because my water was really hard and my hair was dry and breaking off from the water in my new home. Eyes red after showers. Appliances had water stains, toilets with red rings. My hair behaves now, my skin is soft And no longer day etc. it’s worth The investment imo.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Thank you so much!! I am been taking all of your suggestions for softners and filters and I think I found a two n one! LOL!

[@antoinettemc4830]

Ms. Karen, I'm sorry to hear about your water situation, but SOOOO glad you made the connection. I'm excited to follow your journey to restoration and believe my time is coming too. 🙏Yes ma'am, count me in for the class. God bless you, sis💞

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Yay!!! That is awesome Ms. A! And guess what -- I WILL BE GOING LIVE NEXT WEEK!! STAY TUNED! I am working my hair restoration plan that I will be posting soon!

[@antoinettemc4830]

@@KarenofCurlHouse I really miss the Thursday LIVES... can't wait for the next one!!

[@CharTurner6928]

I have hard water too. it's the worst. I use a cheleting shampoo every once in a while to remove buildup. thanks for the additional tips. I'll look into a new showerhead.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Yes! A cheleting shampoo is great too and excellent to remove buildup. And you are very welcome!

[@brownskinbeauty.]

It's the same where I live too, except they refuse to change the pipes. I've never seen my hair fall out so much even being anemic.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Its so unfortunate! I'm sitting in the salon discussing with my stylist what can be done about this. I will keep you posted as I continue my research this month.

[@NewYorkNaturals]

Oh my, I can identify with what you're saying. I moved to Delaware 5-yrs ago and the water here is so hard and it's affecting my hair and skin and my toilet's , tub's and sinks also suffers for it. I always find myself explaining to guest about the stains around places where water runs. Thank you for all of the great advice and you are gorgeous❤️

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Thank you so much April! I forgot to mention that my skin has gotten itchy too! When I get that water filter I will let you know if it makes a difference in my hair and skin. I'm pretty certain it will. I couldn't imagine dealing with this for 5 years. I'm sorry you are going though that.

[@Crystal_curls85]

I live in Delaware too and the water is horrible. When I moved to my house two years ago my hair was breaking off like nobodies business. I got a water softener 4 weeks and the shedding has drastically decreased.

[@NewYorkNaturals]

@@Crystal_curls85 I've been doing a lot of research on solutions and I'm still undecided here. Because it's pretty pricey to soften the water. For now I'm taking the less expensive way around this and using water filters in the showers and kitchen. Because the water is so bad here I'm replacing the filters every four months or so well in my bathroom that is. In the guest baths not so much.... ugh and I'm replacing shower liners in the master bath every month. I have to do the math to see if it's cheaper. Sorry for such a long comment/vent lol

[@Crystal_curls85]

No problem, it’s quite alright lol I tried filters as well. It didn’t work for me but hopefully you have much more success. The front of my hair broke off way too much so I said forget these filters I’m getting the softener. I need my hair lol 😁

[@mforeman6598]

Chin up, Ms. Karen. So sorry this happened to you. Thank you for turning your terrible experience into a teaching moment.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Thank you so much! I appreciate it!!!! And you are welcome!

[@rerelat8242]

Oh no. Only a minor set back. I had to change my filter also. You look fabulous by the way.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Thank you so much!! Its a journey but I"m along for the ride!!

[@marriejames01]

Sorry to hear that Karen. I’ve seen you bounce back and know you can do it again. Thank you for sharing your journey and your transparency.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Hey I appreciate it so much! I’m gonna bounce back!!! I will get there! 🤗

[@dmanning750]

Definitely good advice and something I never thought about! Thank you!

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

You are welcome!!

[@EdwardSmart]

I was going to recommend a filtration system! It's amazing how many outside factors can affect Hair! Thanks for the info.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Hey Edward! Do you recommend one in particular?

[@EdwardSmart]

@@KarenofCurlHouse Karen, you might look into Shower with 'JOLIE' shower head. $165.00. Removes chlorine, heavy metals, and other contaminants. Or you can go with a whole house filtration system, by 'Simply Soft'!

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

@@EdwardSmart Fabulous! Thank you sooo much for the recommendations! Will look into them both

[@joylynne8]

I'm so sorry for your loss of hair. Thanks for the warning. They are replacing the sewer pipes on my street, and I made sure to shampoo my hair before they started. I will monitor the water before shampooing again. Thanks again for the warning. You are a God sent. By the way, I started using the hair growth drops 12/1/2022 and will be assessing the progress.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Hi JLJ! Yay! Document your progress! And yes -- please be mindful of the water. I figured it out too late -- but if I can help one woman avert what I am experiencing then my damaged hair won't be in vain.

[@silvercurlszelda]

Girl, where we live... An RV Campsite, is nothing but we'll water! Even with filters it's rough!

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

I can't even imagine well water...that's rough, but your hair is amazing so you are doing something right!

[@cfoster6804]

Filters don't soften water.

[@wannellalawson4001]

We know that you will get your hair togther. I mentioned to my doctor could it be hard water about my itch scalp. He said no. I did not take that for an answer. Looking forward you resolving your problem.

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

It absolutely could be the hard water. My skin itches as well -- scalp is skin so it makes sense to me! And thank you so much!!! Its a journey but its coming along!

[@Lucky-uz6jk]

These doctors are terrible- they be saying anything!! They Just dismissing anything you think or say - instead of saying I don’t know we never researched that or studied that in school - geez I used to work in a docs office I was a certified medical assistant. Ccchhiille they don’t even want to take the time to listen to you - only your $ rings & the insurance companies control them & make them see pts every 15 minutes for a 7 hour shift - so go with Ms. Karen’s advice - it can’t hurt nothing. Sorry 4 my negative rant

[@lache8322]

Wow who would have knew. Sorry for that Karen and thank you for sharing!!!

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Yep! Its happening -- but I am working out my plan for restoration! More followup videos coming soon.

[@lydiab1228]

Hi Miss Karen, I’m in your class,😊. I live in a 72 year old apartment building, of course these are old water pipes with plenty of nasty buildup, I don’t drink it or cook with it. My question is what shower filter do you use? I am using distilled water to rinse my hair, but the other class members might want to know as well. Thank you 😊

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Hey Ms Lydia! I will send out on the replay along with a number of resources. See you soon!

[@u_9599]

[@MsRenaissance]

Hello Miss Karen. I think my hair has been damaged by hard water as well. The thing I rent so I don't want to change the shower head. Can I boil the water before to remove the chemicals, will boiling water makenot softer?

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Hey there! Yes, it does remove bacteria from the water, but the water will still contain some contaminants like heavy metals. I understand you rent and don't want to spend alot of money (if any), but this is one I use and it works very and its reasonably priced -- and its just an attachment to that you can put over your existing faucet.

Ok thank so much

[@kritikohli5466]

I need help! I'm loosing enormous amount of hair all over a scalp after a salon based chemical straightening. Shedding since 6 months now. I suspect the chemical was really harsh and they didn't wash it out of my head properly. My hair were heat damaged. Please suggest something! Anyone you came accross suffered this much

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

Hi Kriti! I am so sorry you are dealing with extreme shedding. If it is in fact shedding due to chemical processing, then the first thing you need to do a PROTEIN TREATMENT. I recommend Aphogee 2 step treatment. So its a liquid first then a followup moisturizing conditioner. You can get it from any Sallys, beauty supply or online. Secondly, if its not due to a chemical process, you may want to consider your stress levels. Elevated stress can certainly cause telogen effluvium -- hair loss due to stress and other things, so please consider this. Hope this helps!

[@kritikohli5466]

@@KarenofCurlHouse thanks so much. Actually the hairfall startes immediately after the chemical straightening. They wash out the chemical properly out of my head and my hair got damaged. No scalp burn. My dermatologist said no to any treatment and recommend using minoxidil.

[@kritikohli5466]

@@KarenofCurlHouse it's hairfall. No breakage 😶that's y I'm wondering

[@KarenofCurlHouse]

@@kritikohli5466 I am not a big fan of minoxidil especially if chemical damage is the cause of hair. Once you start using minoxidil, you have to keep using it. Chemical damage is a breakdown of the protein structure of your hair. which is why protein treatments are most important for this type of hair fall. if the root cause is topical, then treat it topically. Also, are you using other products designed for hair strengthening? If Its easier, free feel to followup via email at [e-mail]

[@Lucky-uz6jk]

@ Karen of Curl house … thanks 4 this video I’m going to follow all of your directions- going to do a protein treatment tomorrow b4 I go to work already started using the acv rinse. Oh I don’t want to change shower head but I do have a Britta water filter can I just use that water to shampoo and condition my hair or either distilled water from Walmart? Thanks in advance for your answer
