Even if you don’t ingest chlorinated tap water, it can still be hazardous to your skin during bathing or showering. Chlorine absorption can lead to dry, brittle hair and itchy, flaky skin. Additionally, the chlorine can react with other organic substances in the water supply and potentially create dangerous chemicals.
