I wear gloves in the tank, my hands do get wet, but most importantly I use coconut oil to moisturize my hands and then wash them with clear water for at least 2 minutes before I go into the tank. I will put an Aveda hand cream at night, and then make sure I was really well in the shower. Did you have your water checked? There's a possibility that it's contaminated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A777flygirl Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 Are you asking if I tested it myself or if b I had it tested by someone else? Can you advise what I should have it tested for and who could do it? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 You can buy a home test kit with a package of strips that contain reactants. If the strips change color, that means there's a presence of certain contaminants. Another option is to find a reputable laboratory near your area. You can check with the water authority in your place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoDoze Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 That would mean there is a trace of chemicals in the water....not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
