Maybe you’ve put up with chlorine damaged hair (commonly called “swimmer’s hair“) and are looking for a solution to fix it? Swimmer’s hair is caused by the accumulation of chlorine in your hair. You can read our post here about how to restore your hair after it’s been severely damaged by chlorine.
Chlorine Damages Your Hair
In a weak dilution, chlorine is a great pool sanitizer. It sanitizes everything in the pool–including you. Your hair is particularly vulnerable to damage from chlorine. After swimming repetitively, and without removing the chlorine, your hair will turn dry and brittle.
While swimming, chlorine forms a strong bond to your hair. It’s an alkaline solution and as it forms this strong bond, it turns your hair alkaline. And you guessed it, the natural state of your hair is acidic.
When healthy, your hair cuticle lie flat and interlock like scales holding the moisture in your hair shaft. Chlorine exposure causes your hair cuticle to rise up. Then the chlorine can reach further into your hair shaft and strips the natural oils. This is why after swimming your hair feels rough, dry, and crunchy.
