“What Was Killing Her Skin” – A Filtered Shower Head Short Story
At first, Clara thought it was just stress.
The move to the city, the new job, the long hours — it made sense. But something didn’t sit right.
Her skin had become a battlefield — dry patches, flare-ups, constant itching. No matter how much lotion she used, the redness spread. Her scalp flaked like winter snow. Her confidence began to crack.
Dermatologists offered creams. Friends suggested “natural” shampoo. Nothing worked.
Until one afternoon, while visiting her grandmother in the countryside, Clara took a shower in the old clawfoot tub.
The water felt different — softer, almost soothing. Her skin didn’t itch afterward. Her scalp didn’t scream.
It was just one shower.
“Grandma,” Clara asked, toweling her hair, “why does your water feel… nicer?”
Her grandmother chuckled. “Oh, it’s the filtered shower head. Been using it for years. Takes the chemicals out. You city folks forget what real water feels like.”
Clara blinked. “Filtered?”
That night, she couldn’t sleep. She dove into articles:
“Tap water may contain chlorine, rust, heavy metals, bacteria.”
“Unfiltered shower water can worsen eczema, dryness, and allergies.”
“A filtered shower head helps protect skin and hair.”
Her eyes widened. Had her shower been poisoning her this whole time?
She ordered a premium filtered shower head that same night.
The Change Was Immediate
The first shower felt… pure.
No chlorine smell. No skin tightness afterward.
In a week, the flare-ups stopped. In two, her scalp calmed. By the third week, Clara wore her hair down again — something she hadn’t done in months.
The mirror reflected something new:
Not just healthier skin — but peace.
