How I Sproos!-ed Up My Shower for Cleaner Water, Glowing Skin & Hair

If you’ve ever stepped out of the shower with tight skin, frizzy hair, or noticed stubborn mineral buildup, your water might be working against you. I didn’t realize how much my shower water was affecting my beauty and skincare routine until I decided to Sproos!-ed up my shower—and the difference has been a total glow-up.

In this post, I’m sharing how Sproos! helped upgrade my shower water, why cleaner water matters for skin and hair, and how this simple switch became one of my favorite self-care upgrades plus a Sproos! discount!

Pink Sproos Shower Head + Filter

I chose pink, but Sproos! comes in other colors

The Inspiration

I’ve used shower filters for years. After spending 4 months during a hurricane evacuation to my in-laws in Indiana, their hard water helped me introduced them to filters too! My mother-in-law loves her hair now that the hard water buildup is no longer weighing it down.

Clean water matters to your hair and skin. No matter how many clarifying shampoos I’ve tried, nothing quite gets your hair bouncy again like a shower filter. When I saw a cute yellow shower head and filter pop up in my Pinterest feed, I got curious and did some research on it and it led me to Sproos! and all their colorful bath products. I reached out to them and I got to test a pink Sproos! shower and filter (pink was my choice, but it comes in red, green, blue, gold and more!) and fell in love with one shower.

Colorful Bathrooms

I see color coming back into our homes and I started with a fun black toilet seat and black mini-blinds. See them here in my Amazon Shop. I love a black and white bathroom, but the pop of pink hidden behind my macramé shower curtain gives me sheer joy every time I look at it. Not only is it cute, but Sproos! makes an incredibly great product that actually works to improve my health.

The Skin Benefits I Noticed

Within the first time of using Sproos!, my skin felt noticeably different.

  • Less dryness and itching after showering (I’ve had super itchy skin since starting perimenopause, and this truly helped!)

  • Skin felt softer and more hydrated

  • Fewer tight, uncomfortable moments post-shower

  • It feels good….it has three settings (Cloudburst is my fav, then there is Monsoon and Jet)

What it Did for My Hair

My hair was the biggest surprise. After I Sproos!-ed my shower:

  • Hair felt smoother and shinier as no water deposits live on my strands now

  • Less frizz and dryness

  • Curls looked more defined…seriously…I noticed this with the first time I washed my hair with Sproos!

  • Hair color stayed vibrant longer and is bouncier (because it’s truly clean!)

Why Shower Water Quality Matters

Tap water can contain chlorine, heavy metals, and other impurities that strip moisture from your skin and hair. Over time, this can lead to:

  • Dry, itchy, or irritated skin

  • Dull, brittle, or frizzy hair

  • Faded hair color

  • Product buildup that’s hard to rinse away

I was doing all the right things—using good skincare and hair products—but my water quality was quietly undoing all that effort.

How I Sproos!-ed Up My Shower

Installing Sproos! was quick, easy, and required zero tools or plumbing stress. In just a few minutes, my shower was upgraded to deliver cleaner, better-quality water. They have helpful videos on their website that helped me (not my husband) install the shower head and filter myself.

It was very simple and I had no issues or leaking. If you have any trouble, they do have a chat that can help you troubleshoot. You can even adjust the flow as needed. They also have super cute matching accessories like a fogless mirror, phone mounts, and shelves! They recommend changing your filters every 90 days….you use my discount link or code CAROLYNB for that too!

What I love about Sproos!

  • Helps reduce chlorine and impurities

  • Improves overall water quality

  • Easy, renter-friendly installation- if you are a renter and cannot make permanent changes to your bathroom, this is a super great way to SPROOS! up your rental!

  • Sleek design that blends into any bathroom

It’s one of those changes that feels small—but delivers big results.

A Simple Self-Care Glow-Up

We often think self-care means adding more products, but sometimes it’s about improving the basics. Sproos! elevated my daily shower into a beauty ritual that supports glowing skin and healthy hair from the start. My husband said he felt his skin was softer too, so it’s a great product for all genders and ages!

If you’re dealing with hard water, dryness, or just want an effortless beauty upgrade, I can’t recommend Sproos! enough. Cleaner water really does make a difference—and once you try it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t Sproos!-ed your shower sooner.
