damaged hair


Question Posted Monday August 1 2005, 7:47 pm

ok I have a pool and i go swimming like everyday but my hair is getting very damaged from it. Like I take a shower but my hair just look damaged in a way I can't describe its just not silky. Its kind of like it looks scragly and unbrushed. I don't want to stop swimming.

Does anyone know any products or things I could do to make my hair healthy again. Please help I rate high!

Use shampoo specially designed to wash out chlorine like swim shampoos. It sound just like you havent washed the chlorine out of ur hair.

Hi!
I use DOVE INTENSE MOISTURE Shampoo and Conditioner.The trick is to leave most of the conditioner in!Don't wash it all out. It should still feel slick.
Works for me!
Hope it helps

Well what kind of conditioner do you use if any?


Something you should try: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

It's a deep conditioner and it should put the shine and smoothness back into your hair! It's a great product, I use it myself.

use a conditioner like Aussie 3 Minute Miracle...it seriously works so good!! also i heard putting conditioner in your hair before you go in the pool prevents the chlorine from soaking in because it just slips right off. there are also tons of chlorine shampoos out there...just go to wal-mart or smthn and look around..i use this one i don't remmeber what its called...but its in a clear bottle and is green and by john frieda its called beach blonde or smthn..you don't have to be blonde to use it tho

A natural remedy to bring your hair's health back can be made by combining 1 egg, 1/2 eggshell full of olive oil, and 1/4 peeled cucumber in a blender and blending until smooth. Massage into hair and leave on for 10 minutes then rinse well.

Another natural remedy is to wet hair in shower then massage 1/4 cup tomato juice through your hair and let sit for 5 minutes. Rinse well then shampoo as usual. This will help pull the green out of your hair.

Try putting a leave-in conditioner in your hair before getting into the water. It will help protect your hair. Rinse your hair as soon as you get out of the pool to minimize the damage. A moisturizing shampoo such as Dove will restore nutrients to your hair.

wildNcrazy231 answered Monday August 1 2005, 8:10 pm:
Use a stronger conditioner and also wet your hair before you go in the pool. Your hair is like a sponge so if it sucks up all the regular water the chlorine won't get in your hair as much. I know this sounds weird but my hair dresser told me that.
