Chlorine will definitely damage the hair. Also, any color in the red family such as violet, will fade faster than any other color. The chlorine might make the blonde look greenish. You can wet your hair to prevent your hair from absorbing too much of the chlorine. I suggest to use Paul Mitchell Shampoo Three. This will help take out any chlorine in your hair. Since your hair is colored, I wouldn't expose it to chlorinated water too often. Don't forget to use a color shampoo.

If your pool is outside, the color change might be from the sun. If thats the case, invest in a good swimming cap. My hair was originally dark, dark, almost black, and now its about a medium brown. Mind you, L've been swimming for over ten years now. The grass feeling happenes to me when I dont wear a cap, but my next shower brings it back to its usual fluffiness. I personally haven't heard of any of the tips you said, but I dont think any of them sound too healthy for your hair or scalp. I would just use a good shampoo and conditioner.

HAHA! i remember the good old high school swimming days =) I really took good care of my hair because i knew that was going to happen, but the thing i couldn't avoid was the color change of my hair (if the pool is outdoors, the chlorine mix on the hair and the sunlight affects your hair color.). My hair was really soft and thats because if it was possible, RIGHT after swimming i would go and wash my hair on conditioner really fast after practice, then i go home do my regular thing and before i sleep i take another shower and use both shampoo and conditioner.

you should start using waterproof swim cap, that way your hair won't be damaged by chlorine in the pool water. If your hair is dried out then try beer rinse or olive oil ( for hair ). If nothing works I suggest shaving off your hair and wait for the new hair to grow again.....men with skin head looks cute in a way...:D

The trick is to get your hair wet with tap water or from the hose (nonchlorinated water) before you go in the pool. Hair is like a sponge and can only absorb a certain amount. If it's soaked with regular water and you protect it from the sun with a cap you should do fine.

i don't know what the best ways is but i find that using a swim cap keeps my hair in better condition. just wash it after you swim i don't use any special brand. i have found though if you swim with too much chlorine in the pool for a long time you hair can start to disintegrate.

I suggest going and getting a malibu treatment at a salon because they will get your hair healthy again, so that it doesn't end up to be damaged and not treatable, I am a competitive swimmer, and a lifeguard and I get malibu treathements, and I use this shampoo

there's also conditioner and many other shampoos on that website! Best of luck to you! ♥

Whatever you do, don't dye your hair, because everywhere (like on the tips where it's worse) that will absord the dye better and your roots will be lighter than the ends.

idk but theres this conditioner that you leave in and when u get out of the pool rinse your hair and it should be fine
