Recently moved to BR, hair loss increased?

Hey everybody, I recently moved to Bay ridge about 2 years ago and live in one of the post-war buildings. I noticed that the shower heads always seemed to be clogged with debris like black specs. The kitchen faucet also takes some time to get cold after not using it for a day or so.

I’ve also noticed that the brita filter needs frequent changing like once every 2 months.

The most concerning thing is that my hair loss has increased a lot. Every time I washed my hair, it’s like a mouse nest in the drain. I never had hair loss this bad living even further south of Brooklyn.

Since we also have a water treatment plant nearby, could it be a high concentration of chemicals that might be clogging the pipes and maybe on our skin? Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing?

Thank you
