Your skincare stopped working. Your hair keeps thinning.
Your products are fine โ your water isn't.
The Unchemed 5-Stage Handheld Kit removes chlorine, heavy metals, PFAS, and sediment across 5 filtration stages โ with 3 spa-inspired spray modes and a 5-foot hose that reaches everywhere you need it.
After 45, your body's natural defenses decline. But there's a daily assault you never considered.
You used to have thick hair. Now you're watching the drain.
Estrogen drops mean thinner, more fragile hair. Chlorine and hard water minerals strip what little natural oil remains โ making thinning look 2โ3x worse.
You're out of the shower and reaching for lotion before you've even dried off.
Shower water at pH 8.5+ attacks your skin's acid mantle (pH 4.5). With the moisture loss that comes with age already underway, it adds up fast.
You open the cabinet and see $2,000 worth of products that didn't deliver.
A lot of us spend thousands on skincare over the years. If your shower water undoes it every morning, none of it sticks.
Most American homes have hard water to some degree. Every hot shower opens your pores, turns chlorine into gas you inhale, and drives heavy metals into skin that's already lost some of its natural barrier. A hot shower opens your pores and turns chlorine into something you breathe in, which is a whole different thing than drinking it.
Each stage targets a specific class of threat in the exact order your water needs it. Tap any stage to see what it removes.
Catches rust, sand, particulate matter, and pipe debris before they reach your skin. Reduces micro-barrier disruption and scalp irritation.
Rapid chlorine neutralization โ converts free chlorine into harmless chloride salts. Works instantly in hot water, preventing cuticle damage and barrier stripping.
Neutralizes chloramines and provides antioxidant buffering. Reduces oxidative load before it contacts skin, minimizing the free radical cascade.
Electrochemical oxidation-reduction reactions convert soluble heavy metals (lead, mercury, nickel) into insoluble forms and reduce residual chlorine before they reach your skin and hair. KDF-55 also suppresses microbial biofilm growth inside the filter.
Enhanced carbon with increased surface area breaks down chloramines, VOCs, PFAS traces, and organic contaminants that other stages cannot catch.
Left: your water now. Right: the same water through Unchemed's 5 stages.
Not a one-size-fits-all showerhead. A complete system built for your body's changing needs.
Rainfall for rinsing shampoo without pulling fragile strands. Jetting for a strong, concentrated rinse that clears thick conditioner fast. Mixed for coverage and pressure together.
Finally reach your scalp properly. Critical for women with mobility concerns or shorter stalls.
A proprietary machined steel plate boosts pressure by 200% while using 30% less water. No trickle, no compromise.
No plumber. No tools. Unscrew, twist on, done. Everything included โ even the plumber's tape. Perfect for renters.
One twist of the dial switches the feel of your shower.

Wide, gentle coverage. Perfect for rinsing shampoo without pulling fragile hair.

High-pressure concentrated stream. Rinses thick conditioner and product in half the time.

Rainfall coverage plus jetting pressure in one stream. Twist off the top for a hyper-concentrated power-wash stream โ great for cleaning the shower.
Unchemed was founded by Dr. Lena Hale, a board-certified dermatologist. When her young daughter's eczema wouldn't settle, she tried everything she knew and prescribed, with no lasting result. Then she realized the problem was the water.
She tested 11 shower filters and sent samples to a lab; most filtered almost nothing. Working with her brother, who designs hospital water systems, she spent six months testing more than 30 materials to find ones that survive hot water and pressure โ then validated the finished system with about 1,000 families.
"Within the first shower I could feel the difference. My skin wasn't tight and screaming for lotion the moment I stepped out. By week three, my hairdresser noticed less breakage. I've spent thousands on serums that did nothing compared to just changing my water."
"I moved from Seattle to Houston and my skin aged 10 years overnight. Dry, flaky, itchy. A friend suggested it might be the water. One week with Unchemed and the itching stopped. The handheld hose lets me rinse my scalp properly โ something my old fixed head never could."
"I wish I'd bought this years ago. My shower drain isn't full of hair anymore. I'm 54 and for the first time in three years, I took a photo of myself and liked it."
"The jetting mode on my scalp is incredible โ I can feel the circulation. And the hose is long enough to actually reach where I need it. My arthritis makes a fixed showerhead impossible."
Real customers, real water. Swipe through the difference a few weeks of filtered water makes.
You've already tried the serums. The collagen supplements. The expensive shampoos. You may have even seen a dermatologist.
None of it worked as well as it should have โ not because you picked the wrong products, but because unfiltered water was undoing them every single morning.
What you're about to change isn't a product.
It's the environment your skin and hair live in.

No miracle claims. Just what our customers consistently report.
Water feels softer. Skin doesn't feel tight or dry after showering. The itching many women experience โ arms, back, scalp โ is noticeably reduced. No more chlorine smell. You may notice less shedding in the shower within the first week.
"I didn't need to slather lotion within 30 seconds of getting out."
Makeup sits better. Moisturizers absorb instead of sitting on top. Redness around your cheeks and neck starts calming. Products you already own start working the way they're supposed to.
"My serums are actually absorbing now. Same products โ completely different results."
Less hair in the drain. Strands feel stronger between fingers. Color holds longer between salon visits. Your hairdresser might be the first to mention it.
"My hairdresser asked what I changed. I told her I changed my water."
This is where long-term protection shows. Skin texture improves. Hair has noticeably more body. The crepey look on your neck and dรฉcolletage softens. Friends start asking what you're doing differently.
"I look in the mirror and see myself again."
We know you've tried things that didn't deliver. That's why we made this guarantee easy. If you don't feel a difference in your skin and hair, we'll refund every penny. You get a full 90 days โ and cover return shipping. You won't have to fight for it. You won't have to explain yourself. Just let us know.
No. This is the #1 concern with filtered showerheads โ and the #1 reason women love Unchemed. Our machined steel plate boosts pressure by 200%, so you get strong flow even while filtering. Cheap Amazon filters clog in weeks and turn your shower into a trickle. Unchemed's 5-stage design maintains full flow for 3+ months.
Three things: filtration depth (5 stages vs. 1), build quality (stainless steel not plastic), and pressure. The handheld kit includes Calcium Sulfite for chlorine neutralization, Vitamin C for antioxidant defense, KDF-55 for heavy metals, and Catalytic Carbon for PFAS and chloramines โ none of which the $30 options have. Plus, it's a complete handheld system with 3 spray modes and a 5-foot hose โ not just a filter cartridge.
Yes. It fits any standard ยฝ" shower pipe โ which is 99% of homes and apartments in the US. No permanent modifications. Perfect for renters. Install takes 3 minutes and can be removed just as easily when you move.
Every 3 months for a 2-person household. We'll remind you when it's time, and replacement is a 30-second twist-off, twist-on process. No tools, no stuck caps.
Unchemed can't reverse hormonal changes. What it does is remove the chlorine, heavy metals, and hard water minerals that compound the dryness, thinning, and itchiness you're already experiencing. Menopause started the problem, but your shower water makes it measurably worse every single day.
The 5-Stage Handheld Kit comes with the full 5-stage built-in filtration system. The 20-Stage Elite Bundle adds a 15-stage inline filter that extends each stage with deeper media beds and longer contact time, plus adds ceramic balls and mineral stones for pH rebalancing. If you're in a hard water area or want maximum protection, the upgrade is worth every penny.
Absolutely โ and your color will last longer. Chlorine is notorious for stripping hair color, especially on processed or highlighted hair. By removing chlorine before it touches your hair, Unchemed helps color stay vibrant weeks longer between salon visits.
Yes. Unchemed isn't a treatment for any skin condition, but chlorine and hard-water minerals are common irritants, and many customers with sensitive, eczema-prone skin tell us their skin felt calmer once those were filtered out. If you have a diagnosed condition, check with your dermatologist. Susan K. (age 52) shared that her skin "calmed down dramatically" within a couple of weeks on the 20-Stage Elite Bundle.
"I'm 67 and my granddaughters used to get rashes after bath time at my house. That stopped completely after installing Unchemed. The handheld hose is also so much easier for me โ I can shower sitting down now and still reach everything."
"Went with the 20-Stage Elite Bundle and within 2 weeks my eczema-prone skin calmed down dramatically. Best money I've spent in years."
"I've tried Jolie and two Amazon filters. Unchemed is the only one that didn't kill my water pressure."
"The jetting mode on the handheld is my favorite thing. My shoulders feel so much better. And the hose is long enough to actually use properly."
"I got the upgrade for the vitamin C. My skin has never felt this hydrated. I actually skip moisturizer some days now."
Six months from now, you could still be spending $200/month on products that aren't absorbing properly. Or you could have been filtering your water since today. Every hot shower between now and when you start is one more round of chlorine stripping what's left of your skin barrier. This isn't a problem that stays where it is.
A $49 upgrade to your daily routine that protects everything else you're already doing for your skin and hair. You've more than earned it.
