UJolie usebenzisa i-KD-55 ukususa i-chlorine nezinye izinsimbi ezisindayo emanzini. Isihlungi sibuye sifike nobuhlalu be-calcium sulfite ukuze kuqhutshekwe nokukhipha i-chlorine emanzini. Ngokususa lobu buthi namakhemikhali anokhahlo emanzini akho, uJolie angakushiya izinwele nesikhumba esinempilo, kanye nempilo yonke ethuthukisiwe njalo lapho ugeza.
Ayikho into enciphisa ukusebenza kweshawa ngaphezu kwamanzi angakumbozi ngokuphelele. Ngenhlanhla, lokhu akukaze kube yinkinga nge-Jolie Filter Showerhead. Ibuye ibe nejoyinti lebhola elikhiphekayo ukuze noma ubani akwazi ukubeka ukugeleza kwamanzi kahle. Ingxenye engcono kakhulu? Konke lokhu kwenzeka ngaphandle kokuphazamisa umfutho wamanzi.

Ngingumlandeli omkhulu wokwenza uphawu oluhle (khumbula, kwakuyizikhangiso ze-Instagram ezangifaka esitimeleni sase-Jolie) futhi yonke into emayelana nokupakishwa kuka-Jolie iyabonakala. Lo mkhiqizo awugcini nje ngokusebenzisa izinto ezigaywa kabusha ukuze ulethe amakhanda eshawa, kodwa futhi uqeda ukupakishwa kwepulasitiki, ukupakisha amantongomane, amakhadibhodi engeziwe, amabhaluni, kanye nanoma yisiphi isikhala esimoshiwe.
Ngakho-ke, yini esebhokisini, uyabuza? Empeleni konke okudingayo ukuze ufake i-Jolie: ikhanda leshawa ngokwalo, isihlungi esishintshayo (esivele sikhona ngaphakathi kwekhanda leshawa), ama-wrenches, i-tape ye-duct, kanye nesiqondiso sendlela yokuqondisa enemiyalelo yokufaka okulula ukuyilandela.
Uma sikhuluma ngokusetha, ake sihlukanise konke odinga ukukwazi mayelana nendlela yokufaka ikhanda leshawa le-Jolie ngesihlungi. Okokuqala nje, angiyena umuntu osebenza ngamapayipi (okwethusayo, ngiyazi).
