Scary hair? This hard water-filtering showerhead is $17 — 55% off — at Amazon

Ideally, the idea of showering is one that conjures up thoughts of relaxation and revitalization. But having hard water can put a damper on things. Not only can it dry out your hair and leave a film on your skin, it can also result in stains on your shower door. That said, many Amazon shoppers say the Feelso Filtered Shower Head is an effective solution to this common problem. Even better? It's currently down to just $17 (from $40).

This showerhead contains 15 different layers of filtration to purge extra minerals from your water.

Why is it a good deal? 💰

Right now, this water-filtering wonder is more than 55% off its normal price for Amazon Prime members who apply the on-page coupon. If you're looking to upgrade your shower (or perhaps avoid buying an expensive water softener), now's a great opportunity — and for less than the price of a dinner out. In fact, this is the lowest price we've ever seen it on sale for.

Why do I need this? 🤔

A lot of people don't even realize they have hard water, especially if they live where it's always been an issue. For example, in Florida, a lot of dissolved limestone in the tap water can create hard water. To combat its effects, this showerhead utilizes layers of calcium sulfite, activated carbon, vitamin C, ceramic balls and more to filter out these materials so that you actually feel clean after bathing. All of these work together to remove these minerals from your shower water before they reach your skin.

If hard water has never bothered you, why should you care? Easy: your health. There are quite a few scientific studies linking eczema outbreaks to prolonged exposure to hard water. If you want to keep your skin nice and healthy, you should avoid exposing it to hard water whenever possible. Sure, you can install a filter at your home (which is a good idea if you live in an area where hard water is prevalent), but an easy fix is this screw-on showerhead.

What reviewers say 💬

Amazon customers love this showerhead; over 4,400 excited shoppers give it a perfect five-star rating.

Pros 👍

"It's worth way more than what they charge," wrote one impressed shopper. "Everything about how this showerhead feels is everything I could ever want from it. I'm impressed with the water pressure, texture, simplicity, versatility and ease-of-install associated with this product. Makes me excited to shower!"

If you have skin problems, this can help, fans say. Shared a rave reviewer, "I've been struggling with hair loss and skin irritations, which led me to purchase this showerhead, and what a difference it has been on my hair and skin. My hair has been noticeably fuller and my skin is not as dry and itchy as it was before."

"This showerhead is amazing," raved a five-star fan about the power behind the water. "The pressure is amazing, all three settings are a dream. It's got a lot of power but somehow remains soft and doesn't hurt your head or skin. After a single shower, my skin feels softer and so does my hair. It's not tangled like it was with the hard city water."

Cons 👎

Fans were mostly satisfied with this showerhead, but one did wish "the showerhead had a wider pattern."

One other thing to note: The plastic clip that holds the showerhead is a bit fragile, some reviewers caution. "The one thing I would change is the plastic piece that holds the head in place. It's of poor quality and broke twice in less than a month just from general use."

Say goodbye to hard water — and maybe even to skin and hair irritation.

As for another B-room upgrade:

A shower floor that isn't littered with bottles? Yes, please! Imagine how much more pleasant washing your hair will be when you're not constantly tripping over toiletries. This No. 1 bestselling set claims to hold up to 40 pounds (that's a lot of conditioner) and comes with five storage racks in different sizes to neatly corral all your bathtime essentials. All you need to do is apply the included adhesives to stick 'em on the wall.

"I hated the containers that hung from your shower head," said a shopper. "They were often clunky and not very spacious, so I looked into this alternative. So glad I made the purchase. Completely transforms the showering dynamic. Everything is organized and there's plenty of space to spare. It looks very minimalistic but gives the shower a really nice modern look."
