Showering on a regular basis gives way to many benefits. A nice warm shower is not only essential for good body hygiene, but it can be so relaxing. However, there are a few things that may be happening in your shower that can be damaging to your skin and hair.
There may be more than just water coming from your shower-head. Harmful elements such as chlorine, yes the same chemical found in swimming pools can dry out your skin and hair. For protection let your shower run for a little before you step in and consider buying a shower-head system designed to purify the water.
People enjoy being in the shower because it is warm and comfortable. However, high water temperatures can zap moisture from your skin leaving it drier than the Sahara desert. It is wise to shower in water that is warm, not piping hot. After showering apply lotion to your body and face to seal in hydration.
