If you’re a self-proclaimed hair girlie who absolutely babies your hair and still can’t seem to get it to lay flat/shine/curl/cooperate the way you’d like, have you considered the water you’re washing your hair with?

Gasp! Fear! What?! Yep—I don’t mean to scare ya, but not all water is created equal. Just because it feels ~cleansing~ doesn’t mean there aren’t tons of sneaky dissolved minerals, irritants, and even chlorine hanging around in your pipes.

This is where filtered showerheads come in—they’re the fancy switch that tons of TikTokers and ~internet folks~ have made in the name of protecting their hair and scalp from drying, stripping water. Canopy’s Filtered Showerhead ($150) is a fan favorite, with reviewers writing things like “Seriously, why did I wait so long to buy this??” and “The water smells so clean and your skin and hair are healthier right away.”

And now, Canopy is launching a highly-requested, brand-new version of their bestseller for all of you—a handheld version!

This fancy, schmancy new handheld showerhead has the same proprietary filter you know and love—I’m talkin’ filtering out all those unwanted minerals that cause product build-up, leave residue on your skin that might be leading to acne, and dry out your strands and skin barrier. It won’t run you any more than the fixed Canopy Filtered Showerhead (both are currently priced at $150) and comes in four finishes—Polished Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Matte Black, and Brushed Brass.

In addition to that, their new handheld version is renter-friendly and compatible with your current shower set-up—v important for anyone who’s, like, “I don’t know if this thing (aka your stubborn showerhead) is gonna come off.” The Handheld Filtered Showerhead comes with a diverter (for easy installation), a scalp massager attachment (because you deserve it), and an aroma diffuser (for spa vibes).

And if you’re wondering whether the fixed version or the handheld version is better, know that it sorta just depends on your shower sitch! If you have a tricky showerhead that you can’t take off or prefer something that tends to use water more efficiently, the handheld is your best option. If you’re able to unscrew your current showerhead and prefer having your hands free, then the overhead Canopy showerhead is great—you can even snag both for a totally custom shower experience.

Well, what are you waiting for? Snag one of these bad boys today and thank me for your luscious locks later!
