NaturaWai Shower Filter NZ | Skin & Hair Health

Following the recommendation by Maryana Lishman (Raised on Real Food Founder, Eczema and Gut Health Specialist), since using the Hydrate Filter on our shower, bath time has completely transformed for my 2-year-old. He used to scratch and cry — now he’s happy, relaxed, and actually enjoys being in the water. He can comfortably do his full 10-minute Epsom/Dead Sea salt and vinegar soaks without any irritation. The difference in his skin has been amazing. No more smelling chlorine water. Highly recommend to any parent dealing with eczema — this filter is worth every cent! Thank you Hydrate Filters for your awesome product🙂

Customer photo review of Shower Filter NZ | NaturaWai - Chlorine Removal for Skin & Hair

My 21-year old daughter has a severe eczema condition she got a few years ago since moving to New Plymouth Taranaki. Her skin was always burning when taking a shower. After installing this filter on the shower, her first reaction when she saw me coming from work was: "Dad, my skin is not burning anymore while showering!" My wife also told me that her hair is softer after washing it. This filter definitely made a life-changing effect on our household.

Really happy with the shower filter! No strong smell and the water just feels gentler and I am starting to notice the difference with my hair especially, no longer dry. I highly recommend the product to reduce unnecessary exposer to the chemicals in our water supply.

Customer photo review of Shower Filter NZ | NaturaWai - Chlorine Removal for Skin & Hair

Couple weeks in and already seeing improvements. The tap water doesn’t cause my daughter’s eczema, but it does irritate it. Massively. Used a simple plumbing fitting to rig it up to the bath tap and added a hose + shower head. We only use the bath for our baby, so should get longevity out of the filter. Great product.

Shower Filter NZ | NaturaWai - Chlorine Removal for Skin & Hair

Have only just installed it so can’t say much about differences in hair / skin health. It might just be me but I would love if it came with a little instruction sheet e.g where to put the washers, how to properly use the swivel head adaptor (because I struggled to get it into position). Honestly I installed this by myself, am not well versed in this stuff and used it completely wrong for my first shower (which I knew because it was spitting water out of the joins). I know it’s supposed to be easy, but for a complete plumbing newbie it took longer than I expected to figure it out. Seems like a great product; just giving some constructive feedback :)

We're glad to hear you got the filter installed, although it sounds like it was a bit more of an adventure than expected!

Thanks again for your honest review, and we hope you start noticing the benefits of filtered shower water for your skin and hair very soon! Kind regards, Anna & Nick Hydrate Filters 💧

I love the water quality with this filter and the skin of my 1 year old definitely improved (he had eczema) BUT we are living in an old house with not the best hot water cylinder and hot water pressure and since having the water filter installed the warm water in our shower is constantly changing and we have rather a cold shower which is definitely not enjoyable. So not sure if this filter is ideal for every hot water cylinder.

The water in our new apartment was so chlorinated we were all coming out in rashes, hair felt dirty after washing, and skin was so dry. Literally first shower after installing the filter everything started clearing up. Amazing and essential for people with MCAS or similar sensitive bodies.

Why they made the switch

Why NZ Tap Water Affects Skin & Hair

New Zealand tap water is commonly treated with chlorine and chloramines, which can be harsh on skin and hair. Combined with heavy metals and sediment from pipework, this can be especially noticeable for those with sensitive skin. Filtering shower water helps reduce these irritants, creating a gentler, more comfortable shower experience for the whole family.

protects your hair

Simple to install

Compatible with all showers.

No tools required.

    Why should I filter my shower water?

    Across NZ tap water, chlorine is added to disinfect water and kill harmful bacteria, essential for drinking, but once that water reaches your shower, chlorine no longer serves a purpose and prolonged exposure can be harsh on your skin and hair.

    Here’s why filtering your shower water matters:

    • Strips natural oils from skin and hair, leaving them dry, tight, and irritated
    • Breaks down amino acids in hair, weakening its natural structure over time
    • Can irritate sensitive skin, potentially contributing to itchiness, dryness, rashes, or eczema flare-ups
    • Dissolves protective hair lipids, reducing shine, strength, and increasing split ends
    • May react with natural hair pigments, which can subtly affect hair colour over time
    • Heavy metals can contribute to oxidative stress, which may accelerate collagen breakdown in the skin
    • Hot showers can intensify this exposure, as chlorine becomes more volatile in warm water and comes into closer contact with your skin, scalp, and hair.
