Daily Protection for your Hair and Skin

Hair Care: Natural oils produced by the scalp protect hair from daily wear and damage. Showering in chlorinated water can strip the oil from your hair causing it to become frizzy and brittle. Washing your hair in filtered water helps to protect and restore its natural lustre resulting in improved body and shine.

• Prevents dry and brittle hair.
• Fights dandruff.
• Protects colour-treated hair.
• Restores body and shine.

Skin Care: Chlorine can also strip away your skin’s protective oils, causing it to dry and crack, leading to premature signs of ageing. Shower Pure Filter Head protects your skin and feel refreshed by showering unfiltered water.

What is Chlorgon?

Patented Chlorgon is a type of Redox filtration media. Researched, developed and patented by David Farley, CEO of Sprite Industries, Inc., Chlorgon converts free chlorine and some combined chlorines to a harmless chloride salt. A proprietary blend of Copper, Zinc and Calcium Sulfide, Chlorgon works well in a variety of temperatures from hot to cold.

All Sprite filtered shower products contain Chlorgon.

While free chlorine is converted to a harmless chloride, the filters handle iron oxide filtration slightly differently. Iron oxide in a shower setting is often described as “brown or rust water” and deposits onto the filtration media, where it will remain until the next shower. We recommend flushing the filter in warm water for a minute or two at the beginning of each shower to “reset” the media. If there is a high concentration of iron oxide in your water, a whole-house filtration system designed specifically for iron removal may best suit your needs.

Inhalation and skin absorption of chloroform and chlorine by-products are greatest in the shower, where these gases are vaporised.

Chlorine removes natural oils covering hair resulting in loss of hair shine and flexibility, as well as making them more susceptible to mechanical damage. Reaction of chlorine with keratin results in creation of water-soluble chemicals and weakens chemical bonds between fibres forming hair shafts. Also chlorine can get between the hair fibres. As the crystallization process develops inside the hair, the chlorine crystals can separate the hair fibres disrupting structural integrity of hair shaft. Once the bonds are broken, the hair becomes weak and ends of the hairs split.

Chlorine reduction may bring unexpected benefits such as:

• Healthier and younger-looking skin and softer hair.
• Eases suffering from dry skin.
• Hair color will last longer.
• More energy during the day, chlorine exposure might cause fatigue.
• Improved air quality throughout the house.
• Skin becomes softer, healthier and younger look, without the drying effects of chlorine.
• Removing chlorine from shower might reduce the appearance of wrinkles and skin rashes.
• Hair is able to maintain it’s natural oils, and it will look softer and healthier.
• Save money: your skin is able to retain its natural moisture, you can reduce the use of your moisturizer creams.

For most people, it will be a shock – how much stronger, thicker and beautiful their hair looks when their own natural oils is not destroyed by chlorine. (No more brittle and breaking hair). In addition, you will save money when you dont need to use different types of shampoos and moisturizer creams. And also if you use hair colors, they will last longer which will also save you more money.

Why chlorine is more harmful in a shower? Here is the answer:

First, people use much more water during their shower time (up to 60 liters per day) than drinking. Second, chlorine evaporates at a much lower temperature than water, so its inevitably that you inhale chlorine fumes during a shower. Third, in a shower your chlorine exposure comes to a significantly larger area than drinking (skin is the largest human organ that absorbs nutrients and toxins). In addition a warm shower opens up your skin pores, providing an easier way to get chlorine in your body.
