HARD WATER... DUBAI
 
Is there a way to soften the water ? My girlfriends work colleague has started to lose her hair, at 31 years of age !!!! According to her doctor it COULD be due to the chemicals used in sea-water purification, he recomended a water softener which should reverse her problem, has anyone else heard of this ???? If so can you buy a system that connects to the mains ?
