    Shower Stick aka lifesaver stick

    Jeff K. (verified owner)

    I have had the stick installed for a few months now, and I can’t praise it enough. I was having so much trouble with itchy skin and scalp I was scratching myself to death. This thing has made my skin and scalp at least 90% better. It’s not going to cure skin problems that need medical attention but it’s not advertised to do such. It is easy to install, although you need to make sure you use enough Teflon tape on the threads so you don’t get leaks and drips. They supply a tiny roll of tape, but I suggest you get the thick tape by Jaco. Just make sure you put the tape on clockwise. I think the person in one part of their video is putting it on wrong, while another person is putting it on right. I would also suggest, if you need it, to buy at least 1 extra chlorine filter so you don’t have to pay for shipping for 1 filter when you reorder. Recharging is easy, instructions are given with the order, and they are also online. Watersticks also supplies test strips for hard water, but you will need to get your own strips for chlorine. Strips are relatively cheap and you can get strips that will test for hard water and chlorine on one strip. According to Watersticks, if the unit is properly maintained it will last about 10 years, so it is relatively cheap. You have to keep an eye on the chlorine level, because that is what will kill the beads inside the unit. When your chlorine readings go up enough, change the filter. The Mfg. states that the filter should last about a year, but that really depends how much chlorine is in the water. I’m from NJ, and sometimes when you run the water in the sink, you can smell the chlorine. Other time, nothing, meaning that they needed to increase the chlorine content at the water plant to combat bacteria.

    I also like the fact that this is a family business, and their customer service is exceptional. I highly recommend the Showerstick to anyone that is not able to install a whole house water softener.

    I highly recommend

    Amazing product!

    A R

    Since moving to an area with extremely hard well water, I noticed that my hair became dull looking and dry. A whole house softener is not an option where we live so I purchased the shower stick. I’ve been using it for a few week and since then my hair became so healthy looking!
    I can’t remember the last time it looked this nice. It’s soft and shiny, with less tangles. I have hardly any fly aways or frizz. It’s just smooth and glossy.
    The only downside is that I need to regenerate the resin very frequently due to the hardness of our water. But that’s something I’m fine with doing since the results are well worth it!
    Thank you for creating such a wonderful product!

    Please, please don’t go out of business! I have been using your product for 11 years, since moving out of a house and into an apartment , and replaced it once because of damage during moving. I really need soft water due to my curly, frizzy hair. It works beautifully 💖

    It Works in London

    Michelle (verified owner)

    I purchased the Shower Stick because I was fed up with having dry hair. I was resorting to filling a bucket of water from my drinking water filter to rinse my hair. Took ages. It helped a little, but it was still not the same as a water softener. I even had a normal shower head filter. Again helpful, but not as effective as a water softener. We have very hard water in London.

    In terms of delivery, it arrived very quickly, within two days even though I live in England.

    Because I have a different shower set up I opted to use a sturdy PVC rainwater pipe, a tension rod and zip ties. The pipe holds the weight of the shower stick on the side of the bath, and I used the zip ties around the shower stick and tension rod for stability. I’ve used it for a few weeks now and it works well in that position.

    I live in a building built in the 1930’s so I experience low water pressure in my flat preventing me from using the extra water filter attachment, as the water pressure is not strong enough to use the the filter and the shower stick at the same time. But I’ll save it for when I move. This might be a consideration if your water pressure is very low where you live. Other than that, the shower stick has been brilliant and my hair loves it.

    Also, the team have been very helpful with my order and any queries I’ve had, so thanks to them all and Lisa!

    Amazed!!! Must Have for your hair & skin

    Rachelle (verified owner)

    I’ve lived most of my life on well water and also city water, all of these sources of water in varying degrees has really taken a toll on my hair & skin. I am so glad I stumbled upon the Showerstick. I’d never even heard of your product and was completely intrigued. Yes, I had contemplated buying one of those shower filters that cost about $150 and then the subscription on top of that for replacement filters. I had no idea they do NOTHING for hard water! I figured what did I have to lose by purchasing/investing in the Showerstick, so I took the plunge! I’m so glad I did! This is more cost effective then a whole home system and I don’t mind regenerating the stick every couple of days to have that soft hair, clean skin feeling. Yes, I’m guilty of long hot showers and so is my husband, so regenerating more often is better then not having this amazing system! Thank you for this product Its worth every penny in my book!!

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

    Samantha

    This is the first and probably only review I will ever leave. Let me tell you this product has SAVED my hair and skin from hard water! I moved from jersey(soft water) to michigan(hard water) and have tried every “water filter” device on Amazon for the past year trying to help my hair! Obviously not understanding that none of these help with hard water until I found this through someone on TikTok! My hair was super dry and brittle and was falling up in clumps along with turning orange I was desperate at this point. As soon as I took my first shower with this I felt a HUGE difference in hair skin and even my nails weren’t chilling as much. If you’re thinking about getting this just get it!! It’s 1000% worth investing in if you’re dealing with hard water. Life changing!!!

    Sarah Oh (verified owner)

    I never leave reviews and I just have to share how thankful I am to have found this product/company. All the information they put on this site is so helpful and I was skeptical at first but all the thorough explanations made sense and convinced me to try this.

    Filters don’t work when you have hard water like he mentions. This is a true portable water softener that does wonders for my hair and scalp.

    I grew up in a house with water softener and then move to a nashville apt. The water is hard here and my hair felt so different and scalp was itchy. This is the best solution that makes water feel the same as the home I used to live.

    I’m so so grateful and cannot recommend this enough.

    the ShowerStick is amazing

    Alana (verified owner)

    i live in las vegas where majority of the water is hard, so finding a renter-friendly shower softener was very important to me because of hard water’s negative effects on my skin. (i have eczema, which only flares when i’ve been using fragrances or hard water.)

    after buying this ShowerStick, i wanted to regenerate at least once before writing my honest review and i just did. my water is soft again! the little effort that went into regenerating makes this product WELL worth it. the instructions were so clear—i just needed to buy some salt! so glad i found you, ShowerStick!!!

    To be honest, I was very skeptical about this product working. I have tried multiple water filters, various clarifying shampoos, etc. and it always felt like there was still some residue left no matter what I did. I got the softener and the KDF filter and tried them out. I can’t describe the massive difference it has made for my hair. It feels like my hair is truly clean for the first time in years. You do have to refresh it once every 7-10 days for the best results, but I think it’s very much worth it. I highly recommend this product.

    Saved my life!

    Eric

    I found out about the Waterstick in 2006 from a friend that was helping me research different water filter solutions. I started having severe problems with my skin from the water I was showering in. I didn’t know this until a dermatologist said that my cystic acne on my arms, chest, back, butt, and even my upper legs was caused from the irritation from hard water and the chlorine in the water. I live in the Chicagoland suburbs. The water smells like minerals when hot, and over time, everything turns white from the amount of calcium, magnesium, and scale build up. I was in my mid 20s and always had to wear a long sleeve shirt when my arms would break out. Even on the top of my forearms. It was embarrassing and I felt like crawling in a hole. I am a flight attendant, and noticed in certain cities, my skin would clear up quickly just after one or 2 showers. But when I came home, the dry, irritated, and acne prone skin came back. It actually caused severe depression. Through the years they have made the water stick even better by making it larger with more resin in it. If it wasn’t for the waterstick, I don’t know what I would have done. The water is so hard here that I have to replace my waterstick ever 2-3 years. However, it is so worth the cost. If you live in a condo or townhome, that doesn’t have the capability of putting a full water softener in your home, this is going to be the best solution by far. I beg and pleaded with Watersticks, please DON’T EVER STOP MAKING THIS PRODUCT! I rely on it! I would literally have to move out of my condo if it wasn’t for this product. There’s no way I could go through that again. Thank you for making an awesome product. I will be buying a new one prob around March of next year, if not sooner!❤️

    Lindsey Rosser (verified owner)

    This has seriously been a life changer for my hair and skin. I feel like the film I used to have that was left on my body and hair is completely gone. Before I’d wash my hair and it felt like so much shampoo was left in my hair. It would literally crunch. But after using this twice, I see a world of a difference. You won’t regret this purchase. Very easy install as well with all that you need. Hardness level where I live is 204 PPM and I live in a very old house. Life saver.

    Actually Amazing

    Roman Tate Mark Minks

    I’ve had to research and hundreds of dollars to find out the truth about water filters at the store and how they claim to soften hard water I live in San Diego CA and the water is extremely hard I hear second to that of India I went from getting thick scales of soap scum on my feet and itchy skin hair falling out nails looking horrible to actually amazingly soft water this product is amazing!!
    I also believe that frequency of cleaning it has to do with duration of showers as well as how hot water preferences are at least at my home more cleaning when hot showers are taken allot thank you for this revolutionary product thank you for selling the replacement parts as well we Applaud

    Great product

    Elizabeth (verified owner)

    I have hard-hard-hard water, 13+ using the tester from WaterStick. Finally installed the WaterStick softener and this is life-changing! My hair is less frizzy after showering, in fact, it isn’t frizzy at all after showering now! Installation was straight forward. The filter also does not impact the water flow/pressure. (if you experience a decrease in flow, remove the restrictor in the shower head) I installed a different shower head as well (not the wand shipped with the softener unit)

    So glad I found this! We live in Vegas part time and can’t live without a water softener for showering. The building our condo is in does not have individual hot water heaters so there is no way to install a water softener (boiler on the roof for all units) and we were about to move before I came across this. It saved us from moving! Thank you so much. Please don’t ever stop making these!

    This thing actually works

    Henry (verified owner)

    You do need to regenerate every few days more or less depending on how hard your water is, how long your showers are, and how many people are using the shower. Regeneration is very quick and simple. I got it down to about 1-2 minutes of work each time. There are probably ways to make this even faster or completely automated.

    I’ve had the shower softener for over a month now. I deliberately waited till I do the regeneration to see and compare the results before posting a review. It’s an amazing product that softens the water unlike others. Even after the first regeneration, I still got soft water and it was as good as new! The only downside to it is that it does weaken the water flow, but I’m satisfied as long as I’m getting soft water. You just have to follow the installation and regeneration instructions and you should be fine. Tip: make sure the salt is dissolved before you pour the water & salt into the softener during the regeneration process.

    A game-changer

    Reg (verified owner)

    I’ve been using the ShowerStick for about 6 months now and, and it has—without exaggeration—changed my life. IT WORKS!! Highly recommended for anyone struggling with hard water (especially those with low-porosity hair and/or sensitive skin). I recently moved to the midwest and struggled with hard water for a couple years—my head and hair always felt gross, dirty, and uncomfortable no matter what I tried (by the time I finally ordered a ShowerStick, I was washing my hair with distilled water in a pot); it was frustrating and demoralizing. Thanks to some Reddit research, I learned about and ordered the ShowerStick. I was delighted and downright emotional the first time I showered, felt the back of my head, and found that my hair actually moved! (And as a bonus, my skin is less dry and itchy too.)

    The ShowerStick is well worth the investment. Many thanks to the WaterSticks team!

    Unique amazing product!

    Judy (verified owner)

    I wish I had found this product years ago! Well worth investing in this product for amazing soft water you can enjoy immediately. My hair and skin were dry from showering with the hard water from my well. I tried other “water filters” that did nothing to improve it. The first time I showered after installing the showerstick I immediately noticed how soft the water felt and how much lather was created with my shampoo and soap. I find I don’t need anywhere near the amount of product I used to use because my hair was so dry nor do I need my flat iron anymore. My skin was very dry and now has noticeably improved. I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase. There is a regeneration process you need to do regularly to keep softening the water but it is extremely easy to do and only takes about 5 minutes. I highly recommend this product!!! Thank you WaterSticks!!

    Wish I’d found sooner

    Shay (verified owner)

    Moved to a new house in July of 2020 and never really thought much about my water. The new house was on a well, but it wasn’t something I thought would be an issue. I started noticing how dry and frizzy and limp my hair was getting, even just days after cutting off dead ends! Thought I was crazy, until I researched what else could be causing it, since I have been doing my hair the same for 10+ years – all that had changed was the water. I’ll say this, after one wash with the shower stick, I can already feel a difference in my hair. Less frizz, my curls are already springing back and it’s noticeably softer. Even my husband commented that my skin felt soft to touch prior to my slathering on body lotion. I wish I had found this solution sooner, I could have saved myself inches and inches of hair…. Will most likely be buying another unit or two, since it’s not in our budget for the near future to put in a whole house system. Love it, 10/10, would recommend.

    Worked so well I bought a 2nd one. Worth the investment.

    Spencer (verified owner)

    I’ve been living with Arizona water for about 13 years now, but I never really put much thought into water quality, or how it affected my skin and long hair. After visiting Boston, I quickly learned that my hair was looking better with east coast water than west coast. After some research, I learned of water hardness/softness, and everything clicked. AZ water left my hair feeling like dry straw, making it hard to get results with my leave-in conditioner. I tried one of those $35 shower head filters, but saw no results.
    I then heard of this water stick, and how it uses the same tech as the full-sized softeners used for entire houses. Going from $35 to $240 was a bit of a leap, but I saw results with my hair that made the purchase worth every penny. I look forward to showers, knowing that my hair will be healthy and soft. I can’t believe I waited so long to get something like this, it makes me think of all the years my hair could’ve looked better, but was instead ruined by hard water. It’s a little pricey, but it’s one of those investments you’ve got to make, because damn, this thing works, and works well. Thank you for making such a quality product. I’ll be sure to tell more people about you guys.

    Essential

    Nicole

    I’ve been using my waterstick for nearly 20 years, if you can believe! Everytime I move to a new home I make the mistake of thinking I don’t need a this anymore, and within a few months, out of storage it comes. I have curly hair. Everywhere I go people comment on the texture of my hair and ask what products I use. I explain that this water filter is the most important part of my hair routine. You can even taste the difference in your shower water – crazy, but try it. The water coming out of this tastes clean and practically like it came from a stream.

    Want more proof? I had only been using the KDF portion of this filter for the last year. While using just that my hairdresser told me that my hair was so dry that I needed to do a deep conditioning mask at least once a week. One day it dawned on me – I went back to using the full Waterstick (regenerating with salt water). Just saw my hairdresser and it was like completely different hair to her. I also noticed I was having a lot of hair come out in the drain after showering – after resuming full application of my waterstick – that has stopped.

    This thing is absolutely essential and no other shower filter can match it.

    Installation was easy. I appreciate the detailed instructions and videos on the website.

    Our shower arm is apparently at a non-standard angle, so I had to reach out to customer support for assistance and they offered a solution very promptly!

    As for the product itself, my hair and skin definitely feel softer after showering in soft water. I love it!

    LIFE-CHANGING

    Andrea (verified owner)

    Dear Lisa,

    Thank you for your outstanding customer service. I just wanted to let you know that my Showerstick finally arrived! And now, well this is A LIFE CHANGER.

    I have to say I wasn’t expecting this to work this well. Oh my God! I used your water hardness testing kit and figured my water was 11-12 grains of hardness. After I tested the water from Showerstick it took only a tiny bit of liquid to form a nice lather. Well I said, now let’s see. The most significant difference for me is in how my hair felt. It was finally SO CLEAN, I actually got chills down my spine as I was straightening my hair from how soft and with a nice natural smell it was. I haven’t felt like this in years. I totally think your product deserves so much more awareness and especially here in Europe, it took me a lot of research to finally stumble upon you. From now on, I will be recommending your product to everyone I meet. I actually wish I could turn back time and all those wasted “bad hair days” when I was staying at home just because my hair was a total mess and I was feeling so ugly…you know what I mean. This for me is the start of a new life, and I mean it. Thank you Watersticks!

    I will be spreading a word here in Europe and everywhere I go because I bet there are so many girls out there fighting their own “hard water battle” the same as I was for so many years.

    Thank you again and I wish you many many happy customers.

    My warm regards from Slovakia,
    Andrea

    Works well

    Installation was easy. Make sure you wrap the the threads 7x in order to prevent leaks. I use their provided drops to check softness as well as test strips from another company to compare. I receive different results at times around the time regeneration is needed. Though their test kit indicates it’s slightly soft or hard, the test strips indicates relatively hard water. I may need to buy another test strip kit.

    I’ve timed my showers to see when I need to regenerate. I don’t know the water flow rate but mine is relatively strong. I can shower for about an hour before I need to regenerate.

    Relief finally!

    Jason (verified owner)

    For the past 4 years I have been living with Eczema with no help in sight. I was told to use moisturizing soaps and lotions/creams but nothing seemed to help with the dry skin or itching. I would put lotion on and within minutes my skin was dry again. My hair was also feeling brittle and my nails broke easily (even though I’m a guy and kept them short). I found that hard water might be the cause of my situation. After finding out that our newly built home was in no way able to have a whole home water softener installed due to the plumbing designs I searched and searched and searched. I finally found WaterSticks and saw it’s rave reviews on YouTube. After the first shower I felt immediate relief! While reversing my dry/itchy/eczema skin isn’t an overnight process I was quite shocked at the initial relief. Since then things have only gotten better. Simple to install, easy to maintain with nothing but benefits to hair/skin/nails. The only drawback is water pressure. We have high water pressure in our home and having the WaterStick and filter installed does greatly reduce it. Not to the point the shower is unusable but you can notice it. This should be a given thought to anyone installing something like this. The water does have to pass through the filter and the WaterStick so a reduction in some water pressure is a given. Will that stop making me use it? Absolutely not. At this point I cannot shower without my WaterStick. I don’t know what I will do when I travel. I cannot praise nor thank the creators of WaterStick enough for what they have done. If you’re on the fence on purchasing, understand you will not be disappointed. Oh and shipping was fast and communication was great (just check your SPAM folder as your email my filter it there). Thank you WaterSticks!

    A MUST for curly hair, and all hair!

    Andre (verified owner)

    This has been the single most effective product purchase I made in terms of making my curly hair look good and my skin healthier. I spent so much time and research into the right shampoos and conditioners, but now I hardly have to use that much product at all. In fact, I dont have the buy specialty curly hair products because the natural hydration from soft water does it for me.

    The way my skin looks and feels after a shower is amazing. It really sucks going back to hard water showers, it feels like taking a hard water shower purposely destroys my hair and skin. I step out just to have a frizzed up nappy bedhead when I take “regular” water showers.

    I really wish I had bought one of these many years ago and saved all the time, money, and effort I put in trying to maintain my hair. Had I known soft water made such a huge difference, my life wouldn’t have had to revolve around my hair the way it did before.

    For the record, I’m a dude, so I can only imagine that this would be a lifesaver for women with much longer hair. Do not hesitate to get this seriously I wish I had started with a water softener in my beauty journey, as it has made a lot of other products much less necessary. Don’t even need moisturizer because it leaves my skin naturally moist! This one purchase had made the biggest difference out of everything I’ve done to improve my natural beauty (other than eating better and exercise). I look forward to installing a whole-home filter someday, or moving somewhere with soft water.

    The only con is having to regenerate it, but the amount of time saved not fussing with my hair is worth it. I just buy a big bulk bag of salt and pour the salt water in it about once every week or 2.

    I have been battling with hard water for 10 years it has wreaked havoc on my already fine hair. I decided what do I have to lose and gave this a try. Install was incredibly easy I just watched the video and it was in within 5 minutes. My hair felt softer and my skin was not dry when I got out of the shower. I would 10/10 recommend.

    We were introduced to the Showerstick for my kids eczema and we just love it. I have a whole home salt free water system already and didn’t want to invest in an entire new whole home solution so the Showerstick was our best option.

    Also, customer service is highly responsive, super friendly and professional. They are a pleasure to work with and I have recommended their products to all my family and friends.

    Hair Finally Healthy Again

    Claudia (verified owner)

    Moved from Indiana (relatively soft water) to New Mexico (hard water) in 2019. Hair went from bouncy, full curls to limp, dull, and tons of split ends. Hair felt dirty even after shampooing and my curls totally deflated. Hair stylist thought I was a swimmer because my hair was so brittle and gross.

    Finally pulled the trigger on the WaterStick I’d been eyeing for a couple years. Now my hair stays clean much longer, my curls are bouncy again, and I have much less breakage. I don’t enjoy the oily feeling extremely soft water gives me, so I just use less salt than recommended and keep my water at a ‘pretty soft’ level.

    As a bonus, my shower is cleaner and I can use the water in my humidifier, preventing buildup there.

    Finally cleared up my skin

    Elizabeth Bittner (verified owner)

    I lived in Arkansas for several years where the water is naturally soft. When I returned to Texas my lower arms broke out into a pimple like rash that I never could totally get rid of. After spending a few days at my parents with their whole house water softening system I finally figured out the problem is the water. After a few weeks of using the ShowerStick my arms have totally cleared up and as an added bonus my permed hair is staying nice and curly. My water tested at 16 grains before the ShowerStick. Very easy to install and maintain. Will easily pay for itself over time because I won’t have to waste money on skin products that didn’t work to clear up the rash.

    Moderately hard water in Austin, TX was flaring up my eczema pretty bad. I was skeptical in ordering this since there’s not many reviews of this product other than their website.
    But their explanation of ion exchange checked out – this is what I was looking for.
    After one shower, my hair is softer, my scalp and skin isn’t itchy anymore. Water softened by this product and distilled water both test 0 on their hard water testing kit, whereas Austin tap water tested a 5.
    Order this product if you’re facing dry skin and hair!

    So worth the price!

    Charissa (verified owner)

    I’ve been dealing with hard water for a couple of years since moving to an area with harder water than I was used to, and my hair and skin were always dry and just not doing well overall. I kept seeing research that simple water filters don’t work to truly soften water, but I didn’t see an alternative that wasn’t way too expensive for my budget (besides the fact that apartment living means I can’t filter all the water to my home). I couldn’t find a ton of information on this product elsewhere so honestly I was a little suspicious because it seemed too good to be true and there were no negative reviews. Finally I just bought it really hoping it would work! Easy installation and the results were instant and amazing. So relieved to have an affordable and practical solution to the hard water in my apartment, I felt a difference after the very first use! I really liked that it came with a water hardness test kit so that you could check the difference after installation.

    After long suffering with scalp itching and hair loss, a solution!

    Leona (verified owner)

    Our water is very hard at an average of 350ppm (20 grains). When I did the water test, it took 13 drops to get a good suds up to the blue line. I have been suffering with itchy scalp, resulting in hair thinning and loss of hair. It was too late when I realised that the water was the problem. We’d moved to this new area from an area with soft water and during the two years by hair was slowy suffering and our recent move to our current hosue in the area highlighted the issue because the landlord had not flushed the heater and there was sooo much buidup on top of already super hard water. My scalp was so irritated to the point of bleeding. I was at the end of my rope and wanted to install a whole house system, but this quickly became complicated as I rent and I didn’t want to shell out thousands to upgrade our garage (we need a dedicated electric outlet). So I searched and found this and I cannot be happier that I did. IT REALLY WORKS and I cannot wait for my hair to flourish and go back to normal. Thank you for making this and really solving my problem!

    My hard well water was destroying my hair, skin, and self confidence. I spent months searching for a solution. Spending thousands of dollars on a water softener was out of the question for me. A filter wouldn’t work since it doesn’t soften water. That’s when I came across this product in a Reddit form. It literally was exactly what I needed. I noticed a different in my hair I’m skin just in the first week. This really is a life saver and has lifted a lot of stress out of my life.

    I don’t usually write reviews but I have to for this one. There is no other water softener available that truly softens the water without buying a full in house system – that’s not only expensive – but that you can’t install if you live in an apartment or most condos. Don’t be fooled by “shower filters” because they do NOT soften the water. Waterstick… filters AND softens the water and differentiates this one from any other on the market (make sure to purchase the very inexpensive KDF filter with it for filtering).

    I’ve had mine for 7 years and just purchased another for a 2nd bthrm. Once you use the Waterstick you’ll never go back to wanting to shower in unsoftened hard water. The regeneration process is so simple (pouring water and salt mixture in the port) and you’ll notice a difference in your hair and skin immediately, use much less shampoo and soap, in addition to your shower staying cleaner. I can’t say enough good things about this product. Well well well worth the money even if it was double the price.

    I always sound like I work for the company because I feel so strongly about a product that does what it says and is a TRUE water softener and not just a filter.

    You won’t be disappointed and their customer service is so helpful and responsive.

    Wow! What a difference! This is the product I've been looking for!

    Susan (verified owner)

    Today I installed my Watersticks water softening unit. I included the KDF accessory. It was easy to install – I referred to both the videos in your library and the written instructions. The written instructions alone were all I really needed – they were very clear. I tested the water before I installed and it tested as very hard, requiring 10 or 11 drops. After a successful and easy installation I took my first shower. WOW! I could FEEL the difference. The water felt silky. My skin feels softer. With ONE shower! After my shower, I tested the water and it required just one drop – so it went from very hard to the softest level of soft. I’m overjoyed. This has made my day. I have been losing a lot of hair and I suspect that showering in very hard water for 15 years has played a role. I can’t wait to see if the hair fall lessens over time now. I expect it will, though to be fair there are a lot of reasons that hair fall can increase. Out of the gate I will say this purchase was so worth it and I am grateful that WaterSticks products exist. I had been looking for several years for something to soften my shower water. Because I live in a large apartment building, whole home systems are simply not an option. Other in-shower systems filter but don’t soften. I feel like I hit the jackpot!

    After doing quite a bit of research on hard water areas, I realized northwest Indiana was one of these areas. Makes sense because my wavy-curly hair always seemed to be dry and I had scalp build-up no matter what products I used. It’s only been a few weeks, and already my hair is noticeably softer and so much easier to style. I can FEEL the softness in the water. Everything rinses easily. Using a lot less product overall which is a huge plus too! I highly recommend this product!!!

    I just have to say I’ve been searching for two years for a product to save my hair from hard water.
    I’ve tried every other filter on the market, and even submitted to washing my hair with bottled water.
    I have tested the water of many different whole house systems. Many of which had a $6,000 price tag.
    As a Hairstylist, I have to say this is one of the BEST things that has ever happened to my hair! This is the only thing I’ve ever found that actually WORKS! It’s a night and day noticeable difference after ONE shower. I can’t thank you guys enough for this wonderful product. I will be recommending this product to every single one of my clients!
    Not only is it going to save our hair but it is saving us THOUSANDS of dollars on a whole house water softener.
    BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO!! I am SO PLEASED!!!!!

    Thank you WaterSticks

    Ayela Faruqui

    I can’t believe this product exists. Because I live in a rented apartment in Madison, WI (worst hard water ever!) I had lost all hope before coming across WaterSticks. I used to live in Pakistan where the water is nowhere as hard as it is in the US. When I moved here for college, I started dealing with dandruff, super dry split ends, hair getting oily within a day or two of washing, and red patches/bumps on my face. I no longer have to fill bottles of water from the office cooler to bring home and wash my face with. People are really sleeping on this product, how is it not in every household?? it’s a miracle when the only other option is spending thousands to buy and run a large system.
    Also – it’s been a week since installation and even though I share a bathroom with my partner, the water is still super soft. We take short ish showers but still!! Just did the hard water test and it took one drop for the water to bubble after a week of running the system.. When I tested the water in my tap, a dozen drops and vigorous shaking did nothing. so its a big plus that we won’t have to spend much on regeneration either.

    I’ve been having hair issues for a couple of years now, which I have tried pretty much everything to help, but my hair was super dry and never felt soft enough. This came in the mail and I’ll admit it was a little hard for me to install only because my shower head was hard to take off, but once my dad helped with that the rest was easy peasy. Regeneration also only takes five minutes (I was worried that would be a hassle but it’s really quick and easy). I’m soooo happy with the results, my hair feels amazingly soft and my skin feels so hydrated. I’m interested to see if this will help my hair grow back (it was thinning, maybe my city’s “very hard” water was apart of the problem?) I HIGHLY reccommend water stick!!! Even my brother who was super skeptical and didnt want to try it, tried it and said it completely changed his mind and his skin/hair felt fantastic. So thankful I got this, best purchase I’ve made in a long time. Thank you Waterstick!

    Holy Moly. I am the happiest gal on the earth. I have never suffered from excema. In fact I thought it was something you just had to be born with. NOPE. I moved into my new house, and about 30 days in, my skin all over my body was in complete shock. I have an excema flare under my arms that is just terrible!! It’s unsightly. I itch EVERYWHERE! Especially all the crevices. The water stick is such an inexpensive solution to a HUGE water softener system. It’s so easy to install and it’s able to be used right away and lasts for up to 10 years??? It’s incredible. You can’t put a price on incredible healthy skin and hair. Hard water can do terrible damage. As I have learned. I took my first shower tonight and I can’t praise this device enough. The water feels amazing and my skin will be repaired in 30 days. My hair has never felt so good. In fact, I’ll come back here and update you with the results. Even with a before and after photo of my terrible temporary excema due to the hard water and high alkalinity in my home. Please never stop making the Waterstick. I hope you have a patent on this because you should be making millions. Everyone should buy one! I should have bought this when I lived in an apartment! What a solution!

I grew up with hard water so am well aware of the issues – the flat, brassy, weighted-down-with-gunk hair and the dry skin. I am now in a home with the same hard water and tried everything – lemon juice and vinegar rinses, hard-water stripping treatments at the salon, having to get special twice-monthly shampoos at the salon just to have decent-looking hair and was getting so discouraged. My skin was suffering and my hair was beginning to shed much more than it should have. I was so thrilled the day I installed the Showerstick – it was easy to install and my first shower was heavenly. My hair was soft and more full and my skin felt wonderful. Lisa in customer service was an absolute gem and I just so deeply grateful for this amazing product – again, thank you!

    Life changing!

    Lebby

    I grew up with soft water from a well that had sulfur in it. As a result of that, my sister, mother and I had always had soft, manageable, fast-growing hair while living at home, but I always thought it was good genes and not our soft water. I recently moved into town with my boyfriend and something changed. My dirty blond hair got darker, dry, stiff, and no matter how much I washed it, it felt coated with heavy residue with an itchy, scaly buildup on my scalp. It also started breaking and thinning out at the root. It took me months to figure out hard water was the culprit. My mother had always said to beware of “city water”, but I didn’t know it was this bad. We tried various filters, hard water/chelating shampoos/treatments (which dried my hair out more), and even rinsing my hair with store-bought spring water. All to no avail.

    I was on the brink of tears over the state of my hair and skin when my boyfriend found this site. We ordered one right away and the kit told us our water very hard! Which I knew because of the state of my hair and skin and the white buildup on our shampoo bottles.

    After the install, the change was like night and day. I no longer fear taking a shower. I can relax under the water because it doesn’t feel like it’s assaulting me. My skin and hair feel soft and clean. No more dulling, drying mineral buildup or that “sticky-dry” sensation on the skin. My scalp doesn’t feel tender to the touch and shampoo actually lathers! I am an anxious person with sensory issues and showers calm me down so this means the world to me. And it’s only been a few washes! I can’t thank the folks at Watersticks enough for this fantastic product. Maybe now I can grow my hair out.

    For the last year I was pulling out handfuls of hair, and had a burning hot scalp and dry itchy skin. Not to mention a steamy shower irritated my lungs also. I’ve used this water stick with the kdf filter twice and literally my hair stopped shedding overnight. We rent and buying a large system isn’t an option. By the way my test didn’t bubble till I used 19 drops of soap-yikes!!!!!!! Utah water- ughh (Prior to installation) Anyways thank you!-I hope it continues to be so wonderful!

    My husband and I moved from Torrance, CA to Las Vegas and didn’t realize how bad and hard the water quality was. My husband’s skin began to breakout, it was always dry, and his scalp was becoming more flakey. My skin was also very dry and no matter how much lotion I put on, my face was constantly peeling/flaking. I also started to develop red itchy patches of skin and could NOT for the life of me, get rid of it. I had sooo much build up on my scalp and no amount of washing and scrubbing could remove it. I would look in the mirror after my shower and see what I thought was dandruff. It was driving me nuts! Before I realized it was the dang water I was showering in, I purchased a ton of very expensive creams, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, and shower filters to try and remedy our problem. Nothing worked and I was at my wit’s end until I did more digging and discovered it might be the VERY hard water. I then began to research more and realized that I needed a water softener. Unfortunately, we’re living in an apt and water softeners were always for under the sink or the whole house. I tried my luck by searching on Amazon and actually saw someone recommend this company under their review of a shower filter that didn’t help them. Lol. The price was significantly more than anything I saw on Amazon and there weren’t a ton of reviews, but the ones that were there are fantastic! I decided to take the plunge and purchased the shower filter and mini stick and I’m soooooooo glad I did it. Within a few days, our issues began to disappear. Literally…DAYS. Because the water is extremely hard, we have to regenerate every 2-3 days otherwise our issues begin to return. Fortunately, the regeneration process is super easy. All you do is pour some salt water into the body! I loveeeeee this product and really glad they invented it.

    Side note: the customer service is also fantastic. We installed and began using the shower stick right away. However, we didn’t use the mini stick until 1-2 months later, so we never noticed we were missing the caps and fittings. I emailed customer service and they replied promptly, apologized, and are sending the missing components out to me. Great experience all around! I’ve literally recommended them to friends AND strangers. You’d think I was a company saleswoman. LOL.

    The showerstick has been a godsend!! I signed a lease on a house that has well water. I thought, “no big deal, I’ve lived in well water before”. Not well water like this! It comes out brown/reddish colored, and smells like pennies. I’d tried a couple shower head filters from Amazon.. and noticed the water still smelled, my nails were now becoming stained brown, and hands/feet/hair super dry.. Yuck!! How am I going to live the next few months like this?! It’s only been 2 weeks and it’s only going to get worse. Thankfully, I read an Amazon review under a showerhead filter that said they don’t work- the only thing that works are showersticks. So I checked out the showerstick website and gave a call to ask some questions. I was met with a wonderful conversation, and a wealth of knowledge/tips to help me in my rusty water situation. I ordered the showerstick along with the add on filter- I was *serious* about doing it the right way, and getting out all the contaminants. I was counting down the days of my delivery and installed my showerstick right when it got dropped off! Set up was super easy- I just had to make a few adjustments, as there was a slight leak at the top part at first. All good after that! And let me tell you.. that first shower was GLORIOUS!!! Clean, clear, amazing feeling water (and no more funny smell!) My skin felt so soft, and truly clean after! I used the test kit that was included, to see the difference between my regular water, and water that went through the showerstick filter. It took 13 (!!!) drops of the solution to get sudsing with my untreated water.. only 1 drop of the solution that went through the showerstick! Massive difference!
    So grateful that I’ll be able to enjoy my shower time from here on out.. I appreciate the wonderful service, time spent chatting, and phenomenal product! Yay showerstick :D

    Truly one of a kind product. My home is in San Diego County and I have a water softener system but I am living in Thailand for 4 months. The water here is quite hard and I have very sensitive acne prone skin. I ordered the shower-stick and am so thankful for it. Finally a product I can have soft water during my travels.

    At this time I have had the shower stick for 3 months or so and am extremely grateful for this product. Previously in my house I had a water softening and RO system, but after moving into my apartment I noticed all sorts of ailments with my skin and hair (hair being gunky/slimy and skin scaly and dry). After much research, many different hair and skin products, I have a cabinet full now, I decided to purchase a filter for the shower which helped a lot (the gunk was mostly gone), but did not eliminate all issues.

    Someone reviewing the water filter I purchased on Amazon mentioned “water sticks” and using a “shower stick” – wow – what a difference. The reason I went back to the product reviews for the filter, was to find out what others were encountering since my issues were not solved. Well, the moment I saw this mentioned in the reviews I went after it – and what a great customer service. Now my hair is soft and feels like hair and my skin has been clearing up feeling so much better. I added my review for that particular water filter as well – also mentioning “shower stick” and “water sticks” after having purchased the shower stick and used it for a little while.

    And as someone else noted in the review section of the shower stick – I don’t know why this site or product did not come up throughout my searches other than the customer review on Amazon. Thank you again!!!

    I must have forgotten to review when I first got one – I cannot think of a single purchase that has made a bigger difference in my life, with the possible exception of a good quality mattress. I have had eczema since I was a baby, but I didn’t know how bad it could get until I moved to a city with hard water. I would wake up with finger shaped bruises from itching myself in my sleep. I also had a gross build up in my hair, even when using no product beyond shampoo and conditioner and had to use clarifying shampoos and vinegar rinses almost every time I showered. The gentle shampoos recommended for people with sensitive skin wouldn’t get rid of the build up, but the tougher shampoos made my skin irritated.

    I had already tried water filters, but they hadn’t made much of a difference. This was an expensive product for me to accept, but I’m so glad I did. As long as I regenerate often, the build up in my hair was gone. Now I only need to use clarifying shampoos if I’ve been using a lot of hairspray and dry shampoo – like a normal person! The itchiness I was finally responsive to normal moisturizers as well.

    Thank you so much. This was worth every penny.

    Well I am here to buy number 2. The first one I bought for college and left it there when I moved into my friends house as they had a whole home unit. Minnesota has a special type of water we like to call “liquid rock”. I grew up with a kinetico softner. The Showerstick is a real water softener. The crew at watersticks have done their homework and made a wonderful product so we apartment dwellers can enjoy soft water too.
    With our water quality and the fact that there was three of us, I would re-gen twice a week, probably unesessary for most people but, as a psoriasis sufferer I didnt want to risk it. I kept a 1 liter water bottle full with saltwater under the counter in the bathroom I would re-gen 1 hour before a shower. I would unscrew the wand and fill the bottle with water after that first fresh shower.
    If you do not have a well, like me, I cant recommend highly enough to add a KDF filter to your order you wont regret it.

    I cannot begin to explain how passionate I am about this product. In short, no single product has improved the quality of my skin and hair the way the Shower Stick Water Softener has. My journey to discovering this product began about a year and a half ago when I moved to Central Illinois. After living here a few months I noticed my sensitive skin had become dry and irritated and my eczema had never been worse. But what was more frustrating was the fact that my hair had become a frizzy, coated disaster and I had become truly embarrassed by how bad it looked. I soon discovered this was all due to the horrible water quality in my area. I spent close to a year purchasing different filters with reasonably good reviews on amazon and was constantly disappointed. It wasn’t until I was given the Shower Stick as a gift that these issues were FINALLY resolved. The only reason I didn’t purchase this product sooner is simply because I didn’t know it existed! It was just night and day. My hair now looks better than it ever has and my skin is back to its baseline and I attribute this to Shower Sticks. I know anyone can write whatever they want on the internet, but I just really want to express that I am a real person who had these real issue and want to communicate that this product sincerely does everything it advertises, softens water by removing heavy metals, and IT DOES WORK! Like many others, I’m a very busy person who frankly doesn’t have time to leave product reviews but the Shower Stick has honestly made such a positive impact on my life that believe it’s the least I can do.

    I have been using the ShowerStick for about 3 months now and completely love it! I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis and recently moved to an area with hard water that was causing my skin to flare-up. I tried multiple different shower filters but none of them worked because they didn’t actually soften the water. The ShowerStick has completely solved this though! The water is soft and you can feel it because of the slippery feeling you get in your hands when using soap or shampoo. The flare-ups completely disappeared and my skin is back to being healthy! The other reason I would highly recommend this product is because of the service you receive. Since purchasing, I’ve contacted Lisa at least 5-6 or times by phone/email to ask questions I had about the product. In each instance, she replied promptly and gave such a thorough and honest answer that it felt like I was talking to a close friend who was genuinely concerned about what was best for me. I never expected to receive this level of customer service and am so happy to have come across this company. Thanks for everything Watersticks, you’ve earned my loyalty!

    Hello, I think this is the first time I’ve written an email expressing my love for a product. Words can not express how grateful I am to have found the ShowerStick. I moved to central Florida three years ago and had issues with my previously healthy skin since day one. Constant breakouts, dry, itchy patches, and redness. On top of that, my hair was dry and brittle, color wouldn’t keep, and there was always build up on my scalp. I’m only 27, but attributed it all to getting old. I thought this was it! I moved to a different city two years ago (still in central Florida) and my problems only became worse. I was in constant discomfort, extremely frustrated, and was losing hope. I saw multiple dermatologists, and spent hundreds (honestly, possibly thousands) on skincare products. I was diagnosed with multiple types of acne, dermatitis, and possibly rosacea. I was put on antibiotics, given handfuls of creams, and was told to follow ridiculous routines that only irritated my skin further. I tried water filters with little to no luck, but had never thought that hard water may be the culprit. I started looking into water softeners, but currently rent so am unable to install my own. I came across the ShowerStick on Reddit. I started reading about hard water symptoms, finding myself relating to every single one. Without second thought, I placed my order. Here I am, only 2 weeks later with skin that is almost completely clear, hair that has life again, and so much more confidence and happiness. (By the way, our shower water tested at 17 grains before our ShowerStick!) I cannot thank you enough for creating such a wonderful product. I tell everyone about it every chance that I get. I’ve even converted my boyfriend who didn’t think we would benefit from a filter (nonetheless a softener!) into a soft water fan for life — his beard and skin are “super soft” now.
    Thank you, thank you, thank you. Truly.

    I moved into a rental with heavy iron in the water during the summer of 2014. My hair became dry, brittle, and discolored. My hairdresser told me that I would need to stop washing my hair with the well water, or I would need to look for a wig to wear, as it was breaking and falling out. In October, I purchased the ShowerStick Shower Water Softener with iron control. This is a great product, and easy to use. I have no regrets with the purchase, and after 2 years, the ShowerStick is still working well. Thank you for a great product!

    Just wanted to send a quick THANK YOU from Orlando, FL! I bought my showerstick in January and have loved it from day one. Ever since moving here I’ve had a big problem with seborrheic dermatitis and struggled with a very temperamental and painful scalp. Soft water from the showerstick has improved this dramatically, I am no longer in constant discomfort from harsh water and an inability to remove product from my hair. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest this to anyone with similar issues, it has truly made my life much more simple and comfortable. Thank you so much!

    I just wanted to thank you and your company for this incredible and unique piece of equipment. It has completely changed my shower (and my life, to be honest). I no longer fear my shower! My skin and hair aren’t just back to normal when I get out of the shower, but better than a regular shower! I only wish I had a showerstick installed in EVERY shower I use Thank you all so much for working with me. I am so, so happy that I bought this. Everything has been great and simple through the install and the regenerating.

    I cannot say thank you enough! Our ShowerStick arrived the other day and after setting it up and taking my first shower – I couldn’t be happier. Thank you for taking the time to answer my million questions, and even giving me extra information on top of all that. It took all of about 10 seconds to notice the difference in the water. As soon as I got my hair wet, I could tell the water was actually rinsing it instead of depositing more stuff in it. My skin did not have that gross sticky clean feeling and it was not tight and itchy when I got out. My only regret is that I didn’t know about this sooner. I think the ShowerStick will probably pay for itself in the first year with all the shampoo and soap I’ll save by not having to put more and more on trying to achieve a lather. I truly thought it was the heat and humidity that affected my skin so badly when I moved here. Then I was sure it was something in one of the products I was using. Then I bought too many lotions to count with every essential oil you can think of. I could not get my skin to go back to normal. It would be red and inflamed as soon as I got out of the shower. When it was really bad I would avoid showers (and subsequently everyone else) but it never occurred to me that it could be the water itself. You are a lifesaver. I could never afford a big system and we rent anyway. This really is the perfect solution. Thank you. Please feel free to use any portion of my email in your reviews on your site. Thanks again!

    Thank you Watersticks for solving a problem that has plagued me for years. I had tight red burning skin with eye discharge, indicating an allergy. I also developed psoriasis. It was painful and visibly upsetting. I visited many doctors, who prescribed steroids and topical creams, but nothing worked. Finally, one doctor had me tested for common allergens found in hard water. Turns out, I was positive. I quickly realized it was the hard water that I was showering in that was the culprit. Because I live in an apartment, a permanent water softener was not viable. Fortunately I found the portable Waterstick. It was easy to install and simple regeneration maintains the product like new. Within a few days my skin irritation resolved and I have had no problems ever since. I highly recommend the Waterstick if you have skin irritation and have had no resolution with doctors.

    I just want to say a massive THANK YOU! I would probably not be able to continue living in the UK if it wasn’t for your shower water softener. I am a Swede who is used to soft water who now lives in the UK with very hard water. My skin cannot handle the hard water and living in a flat with hard water I was getting more and more devastated and worried…until I found your website. First I thought it was too good to be true but I read more about the shower water softener on your website and ordered it. I had nothing to lose. It arrived and I was a bit worried that the shower fittings would be a problem as it is an American product and I live in the UK. I had no problems at all with this. It all fit perfectly. I have now used it for 3 weeks and it really has saved me and my skin. You are amazing and I would recommend this to anyone who lives in a flat. I could not be happier. Thank you so much!

    I wanted to let you know that I am so happy with this purchase. I’ve been using the Waterstick for 2 months and it is saving my hair! I have lived in the Northern Virginia/DC metro area for over a decade. I have always had difficulty with my hair drying out, breaking, and looking dull. After several years in this area of horribly damaged hair, I realized that the culprit was the water. It is so hard and chemically treated, and it was ruining my hair. I had always had long, soft, shiny hair growing up and into young adulthood, and I craved to have that back. A few months ago I started researching for a solution to the area’s hard water problem. I know that houses can have water softeners, but living in the city means that I am confined to small apartment living, which means no water softener for me. And then I came across Watersticks – the portable water softener that is perfect for apartment living. I immediately ordered it and have been so happy ever since installing it. The directions for assembling and installing the Waterstick are very easy. I am not handy at all, but was able to do it in about 15-20 minutes. From the first usage I could feel a difference on my hair and skin. Regenerating is easy, and I tend to do it frequently (every 4 showers) because I try to maintain a zero hard water flow. I take long showers (15 or so minutes), and I have very strong water pressure (so a lot of soft water is pushed through rapidly). I am now ordering the flow control valve to help the soft water last longer. But even still, this is the best purchase for my hair. Thank you, Watersticks!

    I don’t even know where to begin. A year ago, I was consistently complaining about my eyes being dry. They were constantly itchy and I could hardly get any work done on my computer because I could hardly keep my eyes open. First I thought it was my eyes. Then I though it was the weather. Then things got worse. I noticed my hair never looked clean despite showering every single morning. It would look dirty immediately after drying. In addition to my eyes being always dried out and my hair looking nasty, my leg skin looked like an albino alligator and my forehead/eyebrows were so dry even after putting lotion on throughout the day. One day, I had a mental breakdown. I was crying and flipping out about the issues I was facing. I was doing research when someone mentioned similar symptoms as I was having and it was all caused by their hard water. I knew my water was hard because the white grime left all over EVERYTHING. I read a million reviews online for different products that try and mimic water softener systems but none of them did anything about the calcium. FINALLY I came across the waterstick. At first, I was worried about the price. After another bout of crying, I decided to take my chances. I’m so grateful I did. My husband and I could immediately tell the difference and now when the stick needs to be regenerated we can immediately tell. Unfortunately, we have to regenerate pretty often but it’s two minutes of my time that I am totally willing to spare to never feel the way I did a year ago. Since then, we have moved into a new apartment that also has hard water. I’m so grateful to have the waterstick. We didn’t install the stick in the new apartment for a month to determine how bad the water was. What a terrible decision. It took less than a month for my eyes to itch and skin to ache without the waterstick. I can never ever be able to explain how thankful I am to have the waterstick. Thank you so much for making this amazing product and having all the parts needed to keep this product running strong for a very very very long time. This is an investment I’ll never forget.

    I had my shower stick sitting around my living room for a couple weeks dreading the installation. Silly me. All parts present and in perfect condition. Instructions simple to follow and written in layman’s English. Fifteen minutes to assemble (five of which were finding a wrench in the dark to take off the old shower head). Ran the water through to flush while testing for hardness. At twenty minutes I was in the shower enjoying the nicest shower I’ve had in years! Used half the shampoo I normally do and didn’t need lotion. Bought the giant box of salt from the warehouse club – recharge will cost about 15 cents per week. Sturdy, well built product, fast service, reduced the hardness of my shower from 20 grains to none (I live in the PA mountains). Thanks and regards!

    Dear Watersticks, I am writing to you because I want to thank you for offering such an outstanding product, the Showerstick water softener! Last summer I relocated from Virginia to Southern California where my husband is serving in the US Navy. Shortly after moving here I noticed that after showering my skin would feel very tight and dry and that even after washing, my hair never felt very clean (and my guests experienced these same issues). It was extremely frustrating for me having never experienced either one of these problems before. Originally I thought I needed a filter for my shower head, until I did further research and discovered my problem was most likely hard water and that a shower head filter would not correct this issue. Sure enough I did a test and found out that our water registered as “very hard”. I was familiar with whole home water softeners, but living in an apartment, this was not an option. I cannot tell you how excited I was to discover your Showerstick water softener! I’ve been using my Showerstick for about six months now and it continues to be a lifesaver for me! I regenerate it with ease when necessary and recommend it to all of my friends! Thank you so very much for offering such a wonderful, wonderful product. I wish your company nothing but the best!

    Dear WaterSticks, I just wanted to write a quick email to sincerely thank you for a great product! After installing the portable water softener in my shower, I am so happy to say that my hair finally feels 100% back to normal after 2 years of dealing with the effects of hard water in my house. When I purchased your product, I was skeptical that anything could solve this problem. Within 2 showers, my hair and skin feel great again! Thank you!!! In addition, I was very impressed with how easy it was to install the water softener – thank you for providing clear instructions. I have already recommended your product to a number of friends who also deal with hard water. Keep up the great work!

    Dear Rick & Lisa, Wanted you both to know that I had my first shower with my new Showerstick and I LOVE it. We had to deal with a little glitch but my husband glitch-fixed it and we’re good to go. The shower pipe in the master BR is about 12+ inches higher than in our other bathroom (where our old showerstick is installed) so the water spray was too high (hitting hair and over head). My husband took the nozzle off, got an adaptor at the hardware store and attached our old shower-head, that had an adjustable neck on the shower head and it works perfectly. I love the flow control knob and felt very “green” and conservative :>) using it. I tested both my ShowerSticks with the tester-kit and really like that I don’t have to guess when regeneration is necessary. I really loved doing business with you and appreciated your almost instant replies to my concerns. Let me know if you would like a “happy customer” note. Best and blessings.

    Dear WaterSticks, We have been fighting dry skin every winter, we live in Michigan and the winters are dry and the water is very hard; I later confirmed that with your handy hard water test kit. I knew that our apartment had hard water from the beginning because when I drank it, it made me even more thirsty! Every winter I get dry patches on my shoulders and my hands and face become so dry it hurts. I even purchased a high output humidifier and we still have dry skin. Thank you for a great product that actually softens the water! I put the Waterstick to the ultimate test, I took a shower and did not use any of the in-shower lotion or use any face lotion after my shower. On the very first shower, not only was my face and body not dried out as it usually does, but I noticed while I was reading in bed that the dry patches on the side of my shoulders are now completely gone; I no longer smell like a girl after I shower from all the lotion! I also noticed that my wife’s hair is not everywhere anymore, it used to be in the drain after every shower and all over the bathroom floor after she brushed her hair, the softened water has made it stronger so it doesn’t break or fall out anymore. You should sell these things at a mall kiosk or something, the results are that of an infomercial! Thank you again!

    My experience with the Stick was wonderful. Its a lot better than the expensive brands you can buy for $3000.00 or more. I also find it helps with certain health problems, like skin Yeast infections, and Psoriasis. The little price you pay for your ShowerStick will be the best investment you can ever make for you or your family, plus, not to mention will save you tons of money on soap n shampoo cause you will use a lot less with soft water than you do with hard water. Also it will cut your water bill in half, cause with soft water you use less water than you would with hard water. It’s the best money I ever spent…..I will never regret it.

    I moved into a great apartment that has extremely hard water (high calcium, hydrogen sulphide, high rust, etc) and despite the damage it will eventually cause to the plumbing and fixtures in the entire building, I was unable to convince the landlord to install a whole-building water softener. So I ordered a Waterstick with rust remover for my shower. I’ve been using it for a week, now, and I can’t believe what a difference it makes! It might sound weird, but showering is such a pleasant experience now, I like to imagine angels singing as I wash my hair! My skin glows and my long hair has the same natural softness it used to have when I was a kid. I no longer need all the additional products I used to use to make my hair look/feel better. The amount of shampoo and conditioner I need to use has been cut in half, so I’m saving a TON of money on hair care products. Not only that, but I’ve noticed that I’m losing a lot less hair while blow-drying and styling, and my scalp feels great not dry or tight. Additionally, the soft, ph-balanced water allows me to feel cleaner, longer. Usually, a few hours into my day, that freshly-showered feeling would be gone, but not anymore! I still feel fresh and my hair smells great even after a long day at the office. The only drawback with this wonderful product: You’ll be spoiled for anything less when you stay somewhere else! The installation instructions were complete and easy to follow, and shipping was prompt. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product.

    Dear Rick & Lisa, We spoke on the phone earlier today and I thought I should leave a comment you can use on your website. I live in an older building in downtown Chicago and the water here is incredibly bad. The first time I showered here it literally burned my skin. I searched high and low for shower head water softeners and WaterSticks was my only hope. IT DID THE TRICK!!! My water is now “normal.” Before I had a waterstick there was BRIGHT RED residue in my shower from the minerals. After the waterstick there is no colored residue. I was worried it would be a pain to regenerate the thing but it is a piece of cake. Just unscrew the nozzle and dump some salt water in! Great engineering at a great price and SO HELPFUL!!! I spent 15 minutes on the phone with Rick at WaterSticks and he patiently answered all my questions. GOOD PEOPLE!!! One happy customer here. THANK YOU!!!

    Dear Rick, I have recently purchased one of your watersticks and am very impressed by the results, which were instant. I have a skin condition and have not had to use medicated cream since using this product which is amazing on so many levels.

    Hello Rick, I’ve only had your product (ShowerStick) working for a week and I just wanted to tell you that I’m impressed. It’s an excellent compromise for condominium living. I can use conditioners for the washer and the dishwasher, but I have missed the soft water in the shower. Ahhh…nice to have it back! We travel a lot and my experiences in the past with traditional water softener systems is that they eventually leak and and of course, need service. Your system doesn’t require seals, o-rings, etc. And, if this leaks, it’s already in the shower! (-
    Best of luck with your product.

    Hello Rick, I am impressed with the Shower WaterStick. After I ordered the product, I was planning on what I was going to have to purchase at the local hardware store to install it. I was very surprised to find everything was included. I feel like I ordered bread and was served cake. Thank you very much!

    Hi Rick, I’m actually buying a shower water softener for my daughter, she is in the Air Force stationed in England. I retired from the Air Force in 2003 and she went into the Air Force 2 months later. I have bought 3 water softeners from you so far, 1 for my motorhome and 2 small ones that I use on misters to keep the back patio cool. I spent 6 months looking for a water softener for my motorhome (1986 Winnebago), but they were all expensive. I spend 4 nights a week living in motorhome at my work location and the water is hard as a rock, your water softener works great and is easy to recharge. Thanks for a great, easy to use product.

    Thank you so much. The ShowerStick was exactly what we needed for our shower. We’ve been renting a home in Europe for a year and we haven’t installed a water softener because it’s very, very expensive here. We were hesitant about the ShowerStick, but thought we would give it a try. Immediately, after we installed it and showered the difference was night and day. It was just like being back home in the States with our whole-house filter. Thank you so much. Now, we just need to figure out how to attach one to the washer and the kitchen sink.

    Probably don’t send many ShowerSticks here (Australia) because I’m in Melbourne most of our city water is pretty good. Country water may be a problem so most people would get an installation for the whole house. I bought mine for medical purposes (mild psoriasis) and the feedback on them is pretty good as I need to use a salt based softener but do not wish to get anything installed in the house – it’s also very difficult to find them here if you’re in a city. I have attended to the extra postage cost and await delivery. Regards,

    Hello, my shower waterstick arrived on Monday and I can’t say enough about what it has done for our water quality. Our toenails and fingernails had turned orange from showering in our rust filled water. Now, the water is clear, smells good and the shampoo foams up like an eggbeater was used. We are planning on buying three more as we can afford it … a wonderful product, thanks.

    Hi Rick, By the way, I absolutely LOVE the WaterStick. The water in our area is so bad that we have to regenerate several times a week but it’s really worth it. I have been battling eczema issues for the last 10 years – my doctor even had me try experimental treatments. But I finally figured out it was the water when I went to visit my parents in another city and my skin cleared up. They have a regular water softener at their house. When I came back home, my skin got bad again. The first time I used the WaterStick, there was an immediate improvement in my skin.. Anyway, I’m going to be telling my doctor about it the next time I see him. Thanks for your awesome invention!
