Andikaze ndikhethe iintloko zeeshawa. Logama nje zinika uxinzelelo lwamanzi olufanelekileyo, ndiyavuya. Kodwa xa ndabona intengiso entle yeentloko zeeshawa zikaJolie ezihluziweyo kunyaka ophelileyo, ndaqala ukucinga nzulu ngamanzi ngokwawo.
Nangona bendisoloko ndisazi ngeenzuzo zokusebenzisa isihluzo samanzi okusela, eli yayilixesha lokuqala ndicinga ngokwenene ngeenzuzo zokusebenzisa esinye xa ndihlamba.
Kaloku, ndingacoceka kangakanani xa ndihlamba ukuba amanzi azele zizinto ezingcolisayo ezifana ne-aluminium, i-lead okanye i-copper?
Oku kundikhokelele kwingxaki yophando apho ndafumanisa ukuba ukuhlamba ngamanzi ahluziweyo akugcini nje ngokunciphisa ukuvezwa kwam kwiityhefu, kodwa kunciphise nokuvezwa kwam kwiityhefu. Enyanisweni, iinwele ziyathamba kwaye ulusu luthamba.
Ukuze ndifumanise ukuba ezi zityholo ziyinyani na, ndachitha imali eninzi ndithenga ishawa yesixhobo sokuhluza iJolie ndaza ndayivavanya—kwaye iziphumo zandimangalisa.
Ngamafutshane: ewe, amanzi eshawa ahluziweyo enza umahluko. Bendingaqinisekanga ukuba le ntloko yeshawa ecocekileyo, efakwe kwi-Instagrammable Jolie ingaba nefuthe elibonakalayo kwiinwele okanye kulusu lwam, kodwa andizange ndiyiqonde into yokuba ndiphosisile.
Nangona kunjalo, musa ukundikholelwa. URiggs Eckelberry, umseki kunye ne-CEO yeziko lokuvelisa izinto ezintsha ngamanzi acocekileyo i-OriginClear, ngaphambili uxelele i-MindbodyGreen ukuba ukucoca amanzi akho okuhlamba kunokubonelela ngeziphumo ezibalulekileyo nezibonakalayo: Kunokuthambisa ulusu, kuphucule ukukhula kweenwele kwaye kunciphise ukudumba kolusu. “Ingongoma kukuba okukhona singachatshazelwa kangako zezi tyhefu, kokukhona impilo yethu iyonke iya kuba ngcono,” ucacisa. “Isikhumba sifunxa umswakama, ngoko ke kubalulekile ukuqinisekisa ukuba sisemgangathweni.”
Ukucoca amanzi akho eshawa kunceda ukususa iityhefu ezinobungozi kunye nokungcola okunokuchaphazela impilo yolusu lwakho kunye neenwele. Ukongeza, uphando lubonisa ukuba amanzi aqinileyo anokunciphisa amandla eenwele kwaye abangele ukwaphuka1 kwaye anxulunyaniswa ne-atopic eczema.
I-Jolie Shower Head eneFilter ayisiyonto ndiyithandayo nje kuphela, kodwa yile nto ivakala ngayo: i-shawa head elula ukuyifaka efanelekileyo kuyo nayiphi na ishawa eMelika.
UJolie usebenzisa i-KD-55 ukususa i-chlorine kunye nezinye iintsimbi ezinzima emanzini. Esi sihluzo sikwaza neentsimbi ze-calcium sulfite ukususa i-chlorine emanzini. Ngokususa ezi tyhefu kunye neekhemikhali ezinobungozi emanzini akho, uJolie unokukushiya uneenwele ezisempilweni kunye nolusu, kunye nempilo ephucukileyo ngalo lonke ixesha uhlamba.
Akukho nto inciphisa ukusebenza kakuhle kweshawa ngaphezu kwamanzi angakugubungeliyo ngokupheleleyo. Ngethamsanqa, oku akuzange kube yingxaki ngeJolie Filter Showerhead. Ine-ball joint esuswayo ukuze nabani na angakwazi ukubeka ukuhamba kwamanzi ngokugqibeleleyo. Eyona nto ingcono? Konke oku kwenzeka ngaphandle kokuchaphazela uxinzelelo lwamanzi. Enyanisweni, uxinzelelo lwam lwamanzi luye lwaphucuka ukusukela oko ndafaka iJolie.
Ndingumlandeli omkhulu wophawu oluhle (khumbula, ziintengiso ze-Instagram ezandifaka kuloliwe kaJolie) kwaye yonke into malunga nokupakishwa kukaJolie ifanelekile. Olu phawu alusebenzisi nje kuphela izinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe ukuhambisa iintloko zalo zokuhlamba, kodwa lukwasusa ukupakishwa kweplastiki, ukupakisha amandongomane, ikhadibhodi eyongezelelweyo, iibhaluni, kunye nayo nayiphi na indawo echithwayo.
Ngoko ke, yintoni esebhokisini, ubuza? Eyona nto ifunekayo ukuze ufake iJolie: intloko yeshawa ngokwayo, isihluzi sokutshintsha (esisele sikwintloko yeshawa), ii-wrenches, i-duct tape, kunye nesikhokelo sendlela yokwenza izinto esinemiyalelo yokufakela elula ukuyilandela.
Ukuthetha ngokuseta, makhe sihlalutye yonke into ekufuneka uyazi malunga nendlela yokufaka intloko yeshawa kaJolie ene-filter. Okokuqala, andingombhobho (ndiyazi ukuba kuyandoyikisa). Uloyiko lokufakelwa lwandikhokelela ekubeni ndicele uncedo (kumhlobo wam owayengenguye umbhobho), kodwa inene, bendinokwenza oko ngokwam.
Ukuze ufake iJolie, ukhulula nje intloko yeshawa ekhoyo (uyibeke kwindawo ekhuselekileyo ukuba uyayisusa!) kwaye ulandele ngononophelo imiyalelo yophawu. Izixhobo oza kuzidinga kuphela sisikrufu kunye neteyiphu yepayipi, ezigcinwa kakuhle ebhokisini.
Lonke inkqubo yokufaka ithathe ngaphantsi kwemizuzu eli-10, kwaye eyona nto inzima yayikukuqinisa intloko yeshawa ukuze ingaphumi. Kulapho ke iteyipu yemibhobho kunye neebhrenji zisebenza khona. Icebiso: Uza kufuna iteyipu yemibhobho engaphezulu kunokuba ucinga.
Wakuba utshatile noJolie, ulungele ukuya ekhaya. Oko kukuthi, ewe, de kufuneke utshintshe isihluzo emva kweenyanga ezintathu. Icebiso lobuchwephesha: Bhalisa kwaye uza kufumana izihluzo rhoqo emva kweentsuku ezingama-90 (ukuze ukwazi ukonga ekuthengeni kwakho kokuqala, nawe).
Ngokungafaniyo nezinye iimveliso ezithi ziphucula ulusu neenwele, ukufaka uJolie ebomini bam kwakulula kakhulu. Nje ukuba ukufakwa kugqityiwe, ndaqhubeka nemisebenzi yam yemihla ngemihla ndaza ndahlamba njengesiqhelo. Nantsi into…
Kulungile, ngoku inxalenye emnandi: iziphumo zam. Ukuze kucace, nangona kulula ukuyifaka, andiyi kusebenzisa imveliso ekufuneka itshintshwe rhoqo emva kweentsuku ezingama-90 ngaphandle kokuba ibonakalise ukuba ixabisekile, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo uJolie uye wayisebenzisa.
Enyanisweni, ndiqaphele umahluko okokuqala xa ndihlamba. Amanzi athambile kwaye acocekile, kwaye ndiziva kamnandi kuba andisaqubhi kwiikhemikhali ezinokuba yingozi. Enyanisweni, ndivakalelwa kukuba ishampu yam ifutha lula kwaye ndisebenzisa isepha encinci kunesiqhelo.
Ndathi ndakuphuma eshaweni ngosuku lokuqala, ndamangaliswa kukufumanisa ukuba ulusu lwam alunalo uvakalelo oluqinileyo endandiluqhelile. Xa ndazomisa iinwele zam nge-air-drip, zavakala zithambile kunesiqhelo.
UJulie uyaqhubeka nokundichukumisa xa kufikwa kwiziphumo zexesha elide. Inene, ndiziva ndicocekile xa ndiyisebenzisa.
Ndisebenzisa imveliso encinci kunangaphambili, kodwa ulusu lwam lusaziva lumanzi ngakumbi. Loo maqhuqhuva amancinci endandinawo kwiingqiniba nasemadolweni aphelile. Xa ndifaka iloshini kuba lula kakhulu; ndivakalelwa kukuba ifunxwa eluswini kunokuba ihlale phezu kwalo.
Kwiinyanga ezintathu ezidlulileyo ndisebenzisa iJolie, ndiqaphele ukuncipha okukhulu kokulahleka kweenwele (ingxaki endiye ndalwa nayo iminyaka emininzi). Ngaphezu koko, iinwele zam zibonakala zikhazimla kwaye zisempilweni. Intloko yentloko ayisarhawuzeli. Ndivavanye iJolie kwiinyanga ezipholileyo, ngoko ke ndiyazomisa iinwele zam rhoqo, kodwa izihlandlo ezimbalwa xa ndizivumela zome emoyeni, i-frizz yancipha kakhulu. Ikhula ngokukhawuleza!
Uyilo oluhle luphucula ngokupheleleyo amava am okuhlamba kwaye abantu abaninzi baqaphele ukuphucuka kolusu lwam neenwele zam. Kutshanje ndihlale kwihotele yodidi oluphezulu eneshawa yemvula, kodwa bendingenakukwazi ukulinda ukubuyela endlwini kaJulie. Enyanisweni, ndiqaphele ukuba ulusu lwam neenwele zam bezivakala zahlukile kangangokuba bendingasafuni ukuhlamba esinkini. Ndade ndacenga isoka lam ukuba lithenge enye ukuze ithathe indawo yalo. Ngokufakelwa okulula, iziphumo ezimangalisayo kunye nokungachithi ixesha elongezelelweyo kwimisebenzi yakho yemihla ngemihla, awuyi kuzisola ngokuphucula ishawa yakho.
