I am the one who posted the hair loss problem sad man... I've just heard from my flatmate that drinking tap water could be a cause for hair loss, as tap water contains some chemical which is harmful to the hair. I've been drinking tap water all the time, I can't say that is not the reason for my hair loss. I just want to know anyone heard of this thing about tap water? <IMG SRC="confused.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

Basically, I wouldn't worry about tap water. It's unlikely to be causing your baldness - especially if your family has a history of balding.
Dont worry. The only reason to not drink tap water is cos it tastes minging.
If it's any consolation, I also lose a lot of hair. Maybe it is caused by tap water.
I know for a fact that the water in Cardiff makes my hair fall out more than anywhere else as literally loads comes out when I wash it. I don't think it could make anyone go bald though.
Tried tap water when I was in london and it was mingin!!!!!
