The water

88 mg/LModerate

Source: Aguas Santafesinas (ASSA) · Official figure. Hardness counts dissolved calcium and magnesium in the water; it is the number your hair meets in the shower.

What moderate water does to hair

Minerals are present but gentle: lather and rinsing stay close to normal, and most hair types notice little change. A clarifying wash now and then stops the slow film before it shows.

The washing routine for Rosario

Keep your normal rhythm and add a detox (chelating) wash about every eighth wash to lift the light mineral film before it dulls shine. Everything else in your routine can travel unchanged.

Climate, from recent records (Open-Meteo, ERA5 2015-2024): January is the warmest month, averaging 31°C by day, and humidity peaks in May at about 79% on average. In the hot months, sun and sweat do as much damage as the water: shade, a hat and a rinse after swimming carry the routine. In the humid months, frizz is the main event; anti-humidity styling matters more than wash frequency.
