the story here in Atlanta is that there are so many chemicals and minerals being dumped on my hair by that water (which isn't as much as some cities I'm sure, water tastes fine) that even a top notch water filter in my shower STILL isn't enough.

I have spray bottles of purified water handy, and most days don't even dunk my head under the showerhead, i'll just use the spray bottles. Also, use the purified water to clean/shampoo when you're changing it out.

A jug of purified water is less than a $1 in the store.
