your tap water’s been lying to you. most sa municipalities treat it with chlorine or chloramine, add minerals like calcium and magnesium, and sometimes carry heavy metals from old pipes. all of which can mess with your hair, skin, and scalp.

our filter layers are designed for sa water, removing:

  • chlorine & chloramine → strips natural oils, causes dryness & irritation
  • hard-water minerals → leave buildup, dullness & frizz
  • heavy metals → linked to breakouts, inflammation & long-term damage
  • bacteria & grit → sneak in from ageing infrastructure
  • 1 × flex. 4-stage replacement cartridge

everything you need to start filtering, right out of the box.
