20 Best Filter For Shower Head (2023 Updated)

I moved into an area where even with a brand new water filtration system the well water is harsh. It took a week and a half to clean the shower of the red from iron. I have curly hair which is very porous and well water will wreak havoc on my hair.

I installed this shower head and filter myself (over 50 female) and that was as simple as changing a shower head. I am a very meticulous person and it’s clean and sleek looking. I also need to make mention it has been three weeks and my shower has not getting a iron buildup.

This product has made it easier to clean my shower. You deserve to start / end your day with a quality shower. If you have curly hair this is absolutely necessary to keep your curls healthy. I greatly appreciate this product that I had no idea existed until my salon recommended it to me.

If I was this company I would partner with salons because this is something I’ve never heard of before and it saved my hair, skin and minimized my cleaning routine.

I’ve used the shower filter for a year now, hoping it would help with our very hard water here in Santa Barbara, CA. I live in a condo that can’t accommodate a water softener, so this seemed like the best solution, especially for my hair.

I started using it over a year ago. It seemed OK, but after about 4 months’ I bought some water testing strips so I could check the hardness level, and it tested at the highest lever hardness. I just installed a new filter (as I do every 4 months) and tested it again…and it tested at the hardest water level – the same as the hardness level before I installed the filter! I’m disappointed.

I bought the filter and the shower head attachment. The filter is working fine I think. Noticed a slight improvement in skin and hair but I think it’ll be more noticeable in the long run. My biggest issue is the water pressure.

It’s so bad. I don’t know why. It takes me soo much longer to rinse out soap from body and shampoo & conditioner from hair. I might try to out my own shower head instead of Aquasana shower head and see if that makes a difference.

I live in an area of Texas where the water is so bad that you can’t drink it and it will kill your house plants. When it comes to taking showers it causes dry skin and skin rashes. And as far as trying to wash your hair, forget it.

I’ve tried other water filters and they were okay. The AquaBliss stands out above the rest. It was very easy to install. I could tell a huge difference the first time I used it. After 5 days skin rashes went away and I feel like I have clean hair again.

I am recommending the AquaBliss to all of my friends.

My husband was having alot of trouble with red spots and itching every time he showered. We called a water conditioner company and they came over and checked out our water softner and said that was working fine and he suggested that we try a carbon filter.

He did not give us any brand name or anything so we looked on the internet and found AquaBliss. What I really liked about it was that it is not only a carbon filter, but also has minerals that help your skin.

We have used it and my husband did not get the red spots and itching and I noticed that my skin feel softer. It was very easy to install also. Would highly recommend. I did order it directly from the company itself.

We just moved into a new home and after a couple of months I was noticing horrible dandruff. My scalp was basically covered in dead skin and my pillow would be covered in flakes. Kinda gross! Looking through possible causes I found hard water could be the culprit.

I bought 2 of these for our showers based on the amazing reviews. Well the reviews were not wrong! It took about a week or 2 before noticing a difference but I have no dandruff now! I have done nothing different other than add these filters to the showers.

I’m definitely happy with this purchase!.

I just receive the unit. Initially thought I got a dud since after I put on a couplw more round of the tape, the water was still coming out of the pipe and the filter. Decide to check out the website, and problem solve.

The old washer was pushed into the pipe, so pulled it out and out in the new one and no leak. Wish they have those details on the page. Water seems to have some difference. After taking a hot shower, the walls doesn’t seem to be dripping yellow for now.

I still have to do a major scrub down of the walls. I can’t remember if I had wanted to get the 100 or the 220 model to see which is better. For now , SF 220 seems to show enough of a difference in water difference.

I’d rate this shower head as just “okay”, especially for the price. First of all, it doesn’t have very good pressure, so it takes a long time to wet and rinse my hair. Second, there are a lot of different spray patterns, but none of them is very effective.

Third, on some of the settings, the outer ring of the sprayers will fling water in all directions randomly. It’s very strange. Lastly, I’ve had this for less than a month and the main seal blew out a couple of days ago, so I’m filing a warranty claim.

Hoping this company makes good on the warranty. I’m glad I registered it when I got it!!.

Not bad, but not great. I wish they would allow to use the middle and outside the same time. it’s either a hole in the middle with good pressure or a small middle spray with good pressure, not both. If they would just make it a tad smaller, eliminate the pulsing option no one really uses and focus on the hole positions that would hit your full head I would keep the product.

I own just about everything else T3 makes and this one disappointed me.

I should’ve gotten this a longgg time ago. In the part of Louisiana I’m from you can smell the chlorine and the dirt in the water. During the summer it’s so bad the chlorine will make your eyes burn.

This would’ve been great to have there. I moved to Georgia just a few months ago (for reasons unrelated to water) and the water here is well water and sometimes will have sediment in it. I came across the T3 beauty shower a while ago but had read some reviews (on Amazon) that made me doubt the efficacy of this product, but I didn’t hold out for long, my hair is top 3 greatest feature for me and the change in climate was definitely causing a change for the worse with my hair.

I ordered it (mounted, not hand held, it came in super fast, and after examining it I think the Amazon user may have purchased a counterfeit product from an unauthorized seller because the picture in their review didn’t look like the beauty shower I received.

It was easy to install. Maybe I have low water pressure already, or it just wasn’t an issue because I didn’t notice a change in pressure. I didn’t notice any difference in the water itself or a soft water vs hard water feel to it.

However, just as other reviewers have told you, there was a difference in my skin and definitely in my hair with the first use. My hair (frizzy, wavy, long, different textures in different sections: from fluffy, bushy, and coarse, seriously one head, natural hair, different textures, weird, I know) has never felt softer! Totally worth it, and once you’ve bought the unit the filters aren’t exceptionally expensive, especially if they do last 6 months.

Love this beauty shower.

The product is promising. I haven’t yet noticed results in my skin quality, but I’ve only been using the shower-water-purifier for a couple of weeks now, so it probably takes more time. The purifier unit itself seems solidly designed and well built.

The chrome shower-wand that I also bought with it as part of the package is pretty forgettable; I could have just kept my previous showerhead. There was an issue with instructions/ installation. The instructions warned me not to wrench-tighten more than a quarter turn or it would leak.

But it did leak anyways and I had to call customer service, get them to send a replacement part, try the replacement part, have the same problem, and finally on my own come to the (correct) conclusion that the leak needed to be addressed by wrench-tightening the unit by more than prescribed.

I live in CA where the water is hard. This seems to make the water softer and has resulted in softer hair and less itchy skin. Installation was a chore. What should’ve taken 15 minutes to install ended up being a 3 hour process trying to resolve issues with leaking due to poor design.

I reinstalled 3X, using plumber’s tape, tightening beyond the quarter turn recommendation in instructions, and when to the hardware store to purchase gaskets to better the seal. Nothing has worked to resolve the leak so I just left it as is.

I’m annoyed but the benefits outweigh the cons.

I purchased the white shower head filter. Installation was easy peasy. Water pressure still as good as before My hair, skin and nails are 100% happier. It took about 7-10 days but all of a sudden my hair was really shining and so much softer, I have middle of my back length hair and this shower head is only going to help with growth.

My skin looks moisturized without needing lotion. It’s just all around a good product! I also purchased the water for life so I know my product always has a good filter in it!.

My wife noticed that her skin rash disappeared when we stayed for more than a couple days at our son’s house, and it had disappeared when we spent a week on vacation at Westgate GSM Resort. She said it must be something caused by the water.

So, after searching the internet for the best filtration devices, I bought the AquaBliss Multi-stage Shower Filter (SF220) and installed it in the master bathroom shower. It seems she was right because her rash disappeared within a few days after I installed the filter device, and it hasn’t returned.

In fact, her skin is once again soft and smooth and radiant; and she is 71. Thank you for providing such a superb product. I highly recommend it for anyone on municipal water.

I’m so glad that I found your product through an IG ad. It had really changed the way how my family take showers now. Before my mom dread taking showers because she would feel so itchy afterwards. When we started using your product, it made a difference right away and I can see my mom feeling relieved after her showers.

Also, as a women, I feel great installing the product because it’s so easy and straight forward. I thought I would need my boyfriend for his help, but I didn’t need to rely on him. I will be supporting the business and purchase more filter after we are done with this one.

Thanks for reading my comment!.

I moved from a place with soft water to one with the hardest water I’ve ever felt. I couldn’t brush my hair after a shower while my hair was wet. It was torture to brush my hair if it was dry. My hair was tangled 24 hours, breaking, and frizzy.

I tried different conditioner, oil treatment, and detangler sprays. Aquabliss saved my hair after the 1st shower. I didn’t realize how dry my skin was from the hard water, I was using so much lotion and scrubs twice a week.

I thought my hair and dry skin was due to the dry air and no humidity. Thank u, thank u, thank u I can run my fingers through my hair again and not have to keep reapplying lotion on my body a few times a day.

I wish you made smaller filters for the bathroom and kitchen sinks. Please make a smaller filter to save my face and hands.

I have to admit, I was skeptical at first. This filter by far is great! I love the settings & the way it makes my hair & skin feel. We will be getting more.

great shower pressure,feels even hotter.Haven’t had it long enough to know about softening effects,but all in all a great shower head.

I purchased this filter a couple months ago and wanted to wait to write a review to see what kind of results it produced first. I wish now that I had this filter on my shower for years and would recommend it to anyone for their shower.

It is very easy to install (took appx. two minutes) noticeably cuts down on the tub grime I had before from the hard water and the number one reason I purchased it was to see if it helped with hair loss, which it actually does – I have noticed much less hair loss since I installed this filter.

It also leaves my skin feeling much better and cleaner after my shower. I will never not have one ever again!.

I have used a few different brands of shower filters in this style. My city has water that gives your tub a pink scum. This did not remove it at all, right from the beginning. The reason I buy these is for my hair.

This did not keep my hair as soft and damage free as other filters have. I will not buy this brand again.

I bought this yesterday, and my bf put it on. pretty easy to install. We both felt the difference after the shower, the skin is less itchy and less dry. The hair is much smoother. And it is not too big for a tiny space of showering.

really love it! I gave it 4 star just because this is a review based on my first time usage. I will keep posting after couple months.

I have a severe lung problem and if I get exposed to chlorine vapor in the shower, or even in other room with someone else in the shower. I get severe asthma attacks. Every single time. I also get hives in chlorinated water.

And I’m find with this. I have s a chlorine tester and it reads zero with this filter on. Can’t live without it. I don’t think it would really work for places where there’s ammonia in the water though, that’s much worse and harder to remove.

Eats up filters way faster and is so bad for everyone. People in those areas ha e more asthma, flu related deaths and respiratory problems. Look it up. Govt knows about it.

This is the 1st Pelican filter we have used. My wife has only used it about a week now. kinda early to give an accurate, valued review. Cost: average. installation: simple/easy. we use city/municipal cleaned and clear water to begin with so, it is still way too early to speak of “quality” “value”.

sorry but, give us a month. I’m sure she (wife) will have an opinion by then.

It arrived before the expected date, and we started to use it same day. I am very pleased, and will continue to use that product again and again.

I bought this after researching for a good shower filter, as our water is very hard and loaded with chlorine. After 3 months it was time to change the filter. No one could open the filter to replace the filter.

I even paid a handyman who also couldn’t take it apart. I suggest not using this product.

This is the best shower filter out there, made by the company that makes the only ten stage water filter for your kitchen. This prevents itchy skin, dry skin, buildup on your hair, back acne, and so many other issues that you might think are from your products but is actually From all the crap that is in our water.

This filter lasts me 4-6 months and I can tell the week it stops working that I need to order another replacement filter. You screw this on to your shower head and then put the filter attached to shower head back on the pipe, it is very easy.

To replace the filter you unscrew the filter housing and take out the old and plop the new one in and screw back together. The housing comes in silver or white, and the company is based in Colorado so you can feel good about supporting a small company.

You can find this on Thrive or Lucky Vitamin for the best prices.

This was an item I have wanted for so long! Our water is really hard and full of iron. In the winter my skin always dries out and becomes horribly itchy leaving me restless at night wanting to scratch my skin off! Within a week the winter rash I thought an inevitable nuisance cleared up and I stopped itching! I couldn’t hardly believe it! My skin and hair are noticeably healthier.

The unit was super easy to install too! It took me less than 15 minutes. My husband who wasn’t full convinced of the product at first is happy to not deal with me flopping around in bed at night scratching and has noticed his own hair has been softer and shinier and his chronic dandruff is healing as well.

I’d researched water filters for over 6 months before stumbling across this one by Kholer, which is surprising since I already use Kholer exclusively in our home, yet hadn’t seen this in their showroom.

I was initially drawn to this because I wanted something that was aesthetically pleasing and effective. This model has lived up to both. From the very first shower I could feel the difference in the way the soap both lathered and rinsed off on the skin.

My hair and skin now feel fresh and clean, not like before with a heavy film like there was a residue of product still lingering in my hair and on my skin. A positive by-product is the shower is also easier to clean with less soap residue on the shower walls.

A simple solution with magnificent results. You will notice the filtered water change the whole shower landscape and experience. Your walls and floor will thank you if you have hard water as we are in a rental home while building.

All of the build up of lime and deposits and soap scum are no more. Imagine what your hair could be without all of those chemicals etc in the water. Easy installation. Worth every moment of bringing it into your life.

I didn’t think my water was terrible, but this filter makes a huge difference. It did not noticeably change the water pressure at all either. Soap foams up so much easier and rinses off better. My skin doesn’t feel tight or irritated.

The biggest surprise for me is how soft and shiny it makes my hair. I literally can’t stop touching it! I totally recommend this product. This was also super easy to install. If you can unscrew your hand shower, you can install this.

It is solid feeling and well made and looks nice. The filter inside is supposed to last for 6 months before needing a replacement.

Pro:I ordered this inline shower filter because of the high chlorine content in my water. As soon as I would get in the shower and the water touched my body I would start itching. I had viewed a lot of inline shower filters online.

Some expensive and some less expensive like this one. I decided to take a chance since this was a Culligan and to see if it would do what the overview stated. But the name made the final decision to buy.

To sum this up it worked for me. The final test was washing my face in the shower which I stopped doing because the chlorine would burn my eyes really bad and made them really irritated. It didn’t with this inline shower filter and my skin felt really soft.

Con: It does leak at the arm where shower head screws onto the inline shower filter even when using the Teflon tape as instructed. But that’s no biggie. Love it.

There is a high amount of chlorine in the water and this filter is doing a great job of filtering it. It was so bad that I would end up with hives and itch after using the shower. No more! The instructions were simple and I was able to attach the unit within a few minutes.

The reason I did not give it a 5 star on the meets expectations bar was because I expected it to filter out other particles with the filter. Not too concerned about that as I said the chlorine is filtered out and that was the problem.

For the price and what is does, not too bad of a deal. Nice to have my hair NOT smell like chlorine for a change. The one thing that does bother me though is that the replacement filter is almost as much as the unit itself.

I believe Walmart on-line could adjust that so it would become more affordable for people to replace the filter without the angst of thinking one could just buy a whole new unit for a few bucks more.

That makes absoulutely no sense to have a replacement filter that expensive. I think the last time I checked the replacement filter was almost $12. 00. That is way too expensive. If they could make that happen, I’d give the whole unit a 5 star, you have to consider the cost of replacement filter into the whole picture though.

I bought this for my daughter who lives in Florida and was complaining about the water. She was looking for a shower system that will be good for hard water and this is what this filter is recommended for.

She told me that it was very easy to install and already after 2 days she felt her hairs more soft. She is very happy with the product. It came with a filter, but I bought her 2 extra filters, so if each of them are good for 6 months as it is mentioned, she will have for a year and a half without worry about it.

I am glad I did that for her.

Improved my shower experience. I dont have my house filtered for chlorine or anything and this really made the water softer and better. Only small issue is that when attaching to your shower it is difficult to hold the filter and twist the knob for it to tightly stay on the shower pipe.

Needed to use jaw pipe wrench.

Very easy to install. It does not lower the height of the shower head like many other filters. The first shower with this filter made a HUGE difference in my hair. My city water has a lot of chlorine and minerals that were turning my hair into straw.

I imagine that after a few months, my hair will be back to the way it was years ago. I couldn’t figure out why my hair was such a mess. I am very happy with this. It is simple and effective.

This unit has been installed for a few weeks and I have had no issues with leaks. Installed properly, it preforms just fine. The first thing I noticed was the smell of chlorine I had become accustomed to after having our Culligan water softener removed, was gone! My skin and hair (waist length) felt better as well.

I’m not saying that this little unit can replace a whole house system or work any miracles taking out all contaminants from our horribly hard and chemically treated water in my area, but it is better than having nothing for sure and an inexpensive alternative to harsh water that dries out our skin and hair.

It’s made a big difference for showers and baths. I’m very happy that Dr. Eric Berg had a recommendation for this shower filter. Directions for installing the shower filter were not complete for someone who didn’t know the red inserts both needed to be removed first.

Not certain if the extra plastic is necessary (I prefer to be greener). Also, there is a slight crack atop the filter casing which occurred while ******** it into place. We used the thread tape to keep it from leaking.

If this happens on occasion, it would be great to include a warning or tip in the directions. Not sure how to open the casing when it is time to replace the filter inside. No directions on that.

I have hard water at the apartment complex I live in. the water always smells kind of like chlorine and it’s just hard water. I purchased this 2 weeks ago and I have already noticed a difference in my hair! I had hard brittle hair even though I was eating a well balanced diet and have no vitamin deficiencies.

I started using this filter and BOOM! my hair looks so much more shiny and my skin feels a lot better. I am so excited that i finally am looking like I have healthier skin and hair again!!.

Quick and easy to install! I loved the difference I felt on my hair and skin after showering. Ladies, if you you trying to figure out why your hair is feeling rough, try this out! I struggled a few years here in Toronto with this rough feeling hair, and this shower head filter changed it all!.

We have very hard water here, poor quality water with a high chlorine smell. plus my hair has always turned brassy. This filter definitely has improved the steam in the shower, it’s now odorless and I feel less buildup in my hair.

Plus the replaceable cartridge and reasonable price are great!.

Before the filter my hair was dry and brittle. My skin felt like all the moisture had been sucked out. The filter has changed all of this. I would never be with out one. I even went and bought a special filter for my bath tub.

As little concerned that some people claimed it leaked. I used dope pipe tape and installed as in the instructions saw leak then realized the filter was loose hand tightened and no leak. Carbon black water removed as per instructions everything worked well.

Spm was 134 before then it reduced it to 120. I expected 80-100 i know drinking water filter sb about 50 but at least it did something because my frizzy hair felt noticeably softer and even my wife positively commented.

I felt more rejuvenated than a shower without the filter so the result is positive and noticible. I feel that it was a worthwhile purchase i have to see how much replacement filters will cost when im ready.

Good to go for now.

Very Effective Shower Filter and lasts a long time, much better than most of the cheaper ones out there. I have been using these for almost 14 years and love them. I can always feel the difference in the water when I change to a new one.

However, it does hang down a lot from the shower outlet pipe and is quite large but it needs to be large to really filter out all the bad stuff. I tried those smaller ones and they do nothing.

May need 2 inch extension pipe to use your type of shower head/shower wand set that I use. Good time to install extra long shower wand hose, my choice 96 or 70 inch. Good for those who need to sit or to wash your pets.

The first shower there was a difference in my hair, it was much softer with way less tangles. After about a week I noticed my skin was much smoother and softer too. It was a breeze to install, I am very pleased with my purchase.

I do not smell the chlorine anymore at all, and I really love that because CQ 1000 is really doing its job well.

We love our Rainshow’r filter. It is easy to install and we feel so much healthier having our water filtered.

Works well, i only wish it was meant to prevent fluoride from coming through also.

I’ve used this shower filter in the past and I like the way my hair and skin feel and look after showering.

larger rubber sealing washers make this an improved model over the one we bought several years ago.

This is a great product at a fair price. I’m very pleased with this filter and bought a second one for the guest bath.

Bought this on a whim. My wife is living the chemotherapy life and I try and do all I can to give her any enjoyment. This was a super fast install, including removing the flow restrictor and inserting the filter.

We had a ‘worlds best hotel-style showerhead’ and after years of high-iron well water, it wasn’t working worth a darn anymore. This showerhead easily quadruples the physical water path, and I believe without losing any water pressure from the filter etc.

We’re all quite happy with it and the fact it came with a spare filter is great.

I’ve been on the hunt for a filtered showerhead that didn’t break the bank for months, this VivaSpring showerhead was worth the wait! The water pressure is great and I found it so easy to install which was great too! One of my children experiences mild eczema and the filtered showerhead it making an improvement to his breakouts!.

My shower smelled like a pool before. With this, now it’s normal,and the water is soft feeling! Yay! It’s less powerful than my old one, but I need to save water anyways – the prices are insane here! The shower head is extra wide so the lower pressure doesn’t bother me as much because it covers a lot of area.

This is a good deal with the extra filter, very pleased!.
