The real deal and more effective than carbon
Iโm 35 year old male and people always think I am a recent college grad, 10 years younger. My recent drivers license picture looks identical to the one I took in 2014. People ask me how, I always mention this product and Dr. Bronnerโs organic soap. I put nothing else on my body except shampoo and conditioner, and have for over 10 years.Chlorine in water is very bad for you. Itโs bad for your skin, your hair, and your lungs and heart and body as a whole. This is the real deal. It will filter much more chlorine than a standard activated carbon filter (think Brita but for your shower head), and will filter chloramines and other chlorinated compounds better, whereas activated carbon may not filter those at all.

Great product but expensive filters
I really liked this because it made my hair and skin feel softer. They did become more expensive and the actual head broke and was no longer usable. Ultimately we bought a different one and it's not as good. We actually had several filters leftover and nowhere to use them

Great easy product! Helps with Chlorine. May stain grout!
Great simple product here. We live in a condo and can't filter the incoming water source so we put this on our shower heads mainly to neutralize the chlorine, but also for the potential health benefits of vitamin c. Since we've been using it, we don't smell the strong chlorine smell.Alos, my girlfriends hair was turning green from the chlorine and now is not. The only thing that I would point out, is that when you turn the shower off, the remaining water in the shower head drips out to the floor and the vitamin c is not turning our grout a darker color in that spot.

The water quality in my apartment is very poor. Before I stared using these
The water quality in my apartment is very poor. Before I stared using these: i would have calcium stains over everything in the shower and my scalp would be dry and itchy. These have completely eliminated those problems. Now I don't have to constantly battle stains and buy new shower curtains every month. And it keeps my hair and scalp perfect. I would recommend these even for people without water quality issues; it's obviously doing a lot to keep out impurities.

Filter out toxic chloramine while making your hair and skin feel softer!
I was having the problem of feeling light-headed after taking hot showers so I decided to try and filter out the nasty chloramine my city puts in the water. Yes, this thing is made of plastic and isn't the strongest build quality, and yes you'll have to replace the filter every 2-4 weeks, but if you want to stop exposing yourself to toxic chloramine (which is at its worst when you inhale the hot steam in your shower) then this filter is a MUST. Buy it. Install it carefully. And you will not regret it!I also recommend doing as other reviewers have suggested and install a Captain Eco 5 Stage Shower Filter before the vitamin C filter. This two step setup is a little clunky and you might have to also install a shower arm extension, but your body will thank you for the extra effort.On a side note: my girlfriend immediately noticed that her hair and skin felt and looked better than it ever has and now always uses my shower instead of hers.

No fragrance
2 weeks into using the first one of these cartridges it was evident that they are fragrance free... as my wife pointed it out. I took the cartridge out of the shower head handle and tried to pop off the top but realized it was glued on at the seam. No problem, used a sharp knife to go in the groove all around, about 1 mm deep and the top separated. Then it popped off. (I did the same on an unused cartridge and it looked like pure white ascorbic acid powder inside) I added about 20 drops of orange essential oil and mixed it with a straw, water and all. Now it smells great in the shower again. And all 5 cartridges are now refillable ๐ค For fragrance d-limonene works even better, mix 1:1 with polysorbate 20. Chemistry is cool.

These work great
They work great. Much cheaper than my sonaki replacement ones but itโs the same thing. Def buy

chlorine/chloramine reduction
If you have chlorine/chloramine in your water, this will make showering less painful. It doesn't filter 100% of the chlorine/chloramine, but it definitely helps.
