If you've confirmed your shower head is lower quality through any proper means then 2000% worth it

I looked at my city's water quality report, and the hardness is 17 grains per gallon. Filtering showerheads don't help with this; instead, I would need a water softener system for the whole house

Yeah it's either whole-house system or nothing

No, hardness minerals are too small for those filters to fix it. You'd need a water softener system for the whole house it ranges from 1-6k

You know any other solution for hard water

A filtered showerhead helps with chlorine, sediment, and some heavy metals, but doesn't solve the root cause. In the meantime, a chelating shampoo(1x every 2-3 weeks), deep conditioning, leave-in conditioner, and occasional acid rinse (apple cider vinegar + water) is fine. Worth getting a showerhead if your water has the problems I listed before, though.
