Say Goodbye to Chlorine, Heavy Metals, and Mineral Buildup

Your water isn't just H₂O — it's the foundation every treatment touches. When it's contaminated with chlorine, heavy metals, and mineral deposits, your treatments can't penetrate and your hair structure breaks down.

AquaGuard™ Filtered Shower Head was built differently. Powered by pharmaceutical-grade 3-stage filtration, it transforms contaminated tap water into follicle-safe hydration in just 1–3 showers:

  • 99.9% chlorine & chloramine removal → stops scalp dryness and irritation
  • Heavy metal filtration (copper, lead, iron) → prevents hair structure breakdown
  • Hard water mineral protection → clears buildup blocking treatments
  • Optimized pH → maximizes micro-infusion and Regen effectiveness

Clean water protects your investment. Every shower supports regrowth instead of destroying it.

The Protection Starts With Your First Shower

Clinical research shows that removing contaminants can start protecting your hair and scalp environment within days. With AquaGuard™, users typically notice:

  • In 1–3 showers: Hair feels softer and cleaner immediately
  • In 1–2 weeks: Visible reduction in scalp irritation and flaking
  • In 4 weeks: Stronger, healthier-feeling strands thanks to elimination of heavy metals that cause breakage
  • In 8 weeks: Optimized water foundation—clean, calm, and primed for maximum absorption with micro-infusion and Regen 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner.

Unlike basic shower filters that only remove chlorine, AquaGuard™ works through the entire contamination cascade to neutralize minerals, and eliminate the buildup that blocks treatments. The result: water that's cleaner, hair that's structurally sound, and a foundation ready for visible growth.

Stop Harmful Water Damage From Day One

Clinical data shows that heavy metals and chlorine can weaken hair structure, trigger scalp inflammation, and block treatment absorption within 1-2 showers of consistent exposure. Heavily affecting the efficacy of treatments to reach it maximum potential.

Most users notice their hair feels softer, stronger, and experience less shedding —because AquaGuard™ doesn't just filter chlorine, it removes ions such as copper, calcium, magnesium and heavy metals that keep damaging hair even between treatments.

What Makes AquaGuard

The Ultimate Shower Filter
Activated Carbon

The Chlorine Eliminator

Removes 99.9% of chlorine through adsorption; eliminates pool-water smell and dryness.

Filters VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and chemical contaminants that irritate scalp.

Calcium Sulfite

The Chloramine Destroyer

Neutralizes chloramine (what basic filters miss); works in hot water where carbon fails.

Ensures complete chlorine-family removal for maximum scalp protection and treatment absorption.

KDF-55 (Copper-Zinc Alloy)

The Heavy Metal Neutralizer

Detoxes copper ions, lead, mercury, and iron through redox reactions; prevents hair brittleness and structural damage.

Patented filtration technology that stops metal contamination before it touches your scalp.

Ceramic Balls + PP Cotton

The pH Optimizer & Sediment Blocker

✓ Ceramic balls optimize water pH (6.5-7.5) for healthy scalp barrier.

✓ Polypropylene (PP) cotton pre-filter removes rust, sediment, and large particles.

The Only Shower Filter You'll Ever Need

Most shower filters are just basic carbon blocks that remove some chlorine and call it a day. They don't touch heavy metals, can't handle chloramine, and leave copper ions untouched.

AquaGuard™ is different. It delivers 3 stages of clinical-grade filtration engineered specifically to protect men investing in serious hair regrowth: KDF-55 for copper and heavy metal removal (same technology used in hospital water systems), calcium sulfite for chloramine neutralization (what basic filters miss), ceramic balls for pH optimization, and activated carbon for chemical elimination.

See Full Filtration Specifications

Traditional "beauty" filters might soften water. Whole-home systems cost $1,500-4,000 and require professional installation. AquaGuard™ gives you both: pharmaceutical-grade filtration that removes the metals sabotaging hair structure plus 60-second installation.

This isn't just another filter promising "cleaner water." AquaGuard™ is the scalp protection technology that makes every treatment in your routine work harder. If your water isn't protecting your investment, it's actively destroying it.

Protect Your Scalp...

And Your Wallet Too!

Whilst whole-home water filtration systems can cost upwards of ~$3,000 and require professional installation, permits, and ongoing maintenance for a minimum of $200/year, our 60-second install filter gives you the same follicle-safe water and clinical-grade protection, without the expense.

For 1/60th the price, here's what you get:

  • Clean water in 1-3 showers—no plumber, no permits, no installation fees
  • 3-grade filtration that protects hair and scalp without whole-house complexity
  • Easy installation - Saving you time and energy

Skip the expensive installations and achieve healthier hair, calmer scalp, and less shedding from home today.

Protect Your Hair With Every Shower

In Just A Few Minutes
  • Step 1

    Remove your current showerhead by turning counterclockwise. Attach AquaGuard™ to the shower pipe by turning clockwise until snug—first few turns may feel loose, then it catches thread.

  • Step 2

    Attach your showerhead to the bottom of AquaGuard™ (hand-tighten clockwise). Run water for 30 seconds to activate and flush the filter—you may see slight carbon particles (this is normal and harmless).

  • Step 3

    Enjoy using clean, filtered water for every shower. Replace cartridge every month for optimal protection. Expect softer, healthier hair within just the first 1-3 showers.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    You got questions. We got answers.

    When will I start seeing results?

    Most people feel a difference in their first 1–3 showers. By 1–2 weeks: scalp irritation and flaking visibly calm down. By 3–4 weeks: hair feels noticeably softer, shinier, and less brittle. Keep it installed through 6–8 weeks to fully optimize your water quality for maximum treatment absorption and hair protection.

    How do I install it?

    Installation takes 60 seconds, no tools required:

    1. Remove your current showerhead (hand-turn counterclockwise)
    2. Hand-tighten AquaGuard™ to the shower pipe (clockwise)
    3. Attach your showerhead to AquaGuard's output (hand-tighten)
    4. Run water for 30 seconds to activate and flush the filter

    No plumber, no complicated setup, no permanent modifications.

    How often do I need to replace the filter?

    Replace the cartridge every month depending on your water quality and usage frequency. Heavy metal concentration, water hardness, and daily shower frequency all affect lifespan. We'll send you a reminder when it's time. Replacement cartridges available at novamane.com.

    Will this work with my existing showerhead?

    Yes. AquaGuard™ uses universal standard threading (½-inch NPT) that fits all standard shower fixtures in North America. Works with handheld showerheads, fixed showerheads, and rainfall heads.

    What ingredients are in the serum? (Full INCI & roles)

    Hero actives

    • Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu): supports follicle vitality and micro-circulation.
    • Niacinamide: optimizes scalp barrier; helps balance oil.
    • Caffeine: energizes follicles; DHT-supportive pathway.
    • Pisum Sativum (Pea) Sprout Extract / AnaGain™: signals dormant follicles.
    • Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1: reinforces anchoring; reduces breakage.
    • Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3: supports hair matrix for density.
    • Adenosine: promotes anagen (growth) phase.
    • Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): conditions fiber; adds thickness feel.

    Complementary co-actives

    • Taurine: protects follicle sheath; anti-stress amino acid.
    • Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract: antioxidant; 5-α-reductase–supportive.
    • Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract (decolorized): calming antioxidant for scalp comfort.
    • Panax Ginseng Root Extract: circulation support.
    • Resveratrol: cellular antioxidant; helps counter oxidative stress.
    • Glyceryl Glucoside: osmolyte humectant for scalp hydration.

    Vehicle & hydration system

    • Aqua (Water), Glycerin: solvent and primary humectant base.

    Preservative & stability system

    • Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin: broad-spectrum preservation.
    • Disodium EDTA: chelator to enhance stability and preservative performance.

    No added fragrance or silicones.

    Does it reduce water pressure?

    No. AquaGuard™ maintains full water pressure thanks to our high-flow design (2.5 GPM). Most users report water feels "softer" and more comfortable without any loss in pressure or performance.

    What contaminants does it actually remove?

    Chlorine & chloramine (99.9%)

    Heavy metals — copper ions, lead, mercury, iron (KDF-55 technology)

    Hard water minerals — calcium, magnesium that create buildup

    Rust and sediment — particles that irritate scalp

    VOCs (volatile organic compounds)

    Bacteria and microorganisms — ceramic ball filtration

    Will it help with my NovaMane treatments?

    Yes. Clean, filtered water means:

    • Better micro-infusion absorption — no copper oxidation or mineral buildup blocking serum penetration

    • More effective Regen performance — soft water creates proper lather and allows actives to work without hard water interference

    • Less scalp irritation — filtered water is gentler on freshly-stamped or sensitive skin (no chlorine sting)

    • Faster visible results — your treatments work the way they're designed to without water contamination fighting against them
    Is it safe for color-treated or keratin-treated hair?

    Yes. Filtered water is actually better for color and keratin treatments. Chlorine strips color faster and hard water minerals damage keratin bonds. AquaGuard protects your salon investments while improving natural hair texture. (Still avoid washing for 48h after fresh color application.)

    Does it require maintenance besides replacing the cartridge?

    No. Just replace the filter cartridge every month. No cleaning, no backflushing, no complicated maintenance routines. It's designed to be completely hands-off between cartridge changes.

    Will this work in apartments or rentals?

    Yes. AquaGuard™ installs and uninstalls in 60 seconds without any permanent modifications, drilling, or plumbing changes. Perfect for renters—just take it with you when you move. No landlord permission required.
