Is there a shampoo or some kind of hair treatment that repels the chlorine water when you go in the pool?

YES!!!!!!! THERE IS!!!!!!!





Most people dont understand why this matters ... but I do. (see below)





It is called ULTRA SWIM and they make shampoo and conditioner. They have it at some stores in the summer - but i usually have to ask a local store to carry it. This year i found it on the internet. just search for ultra swim shampoo. there are stores online that sell it. IT IS AWESOME!!! DON't HESITATE TO BUY IT !!!!!!!





p.s. - wetting your hair before you swim really doesnt work - thats a myth. but you prolly knew that already!





i hope this helps!!! happy swimming!!!!! :)

i don`t think so, but there is a shampoo that can clean the chlorine off really good so it doesn`t damage your hair.
Take a good conditioner and coat your hair in it. This will help with not soaking in as much chlorine.

^^^ This is an article and discussion about how to protect your hair when swimming.
Unfortunately, there are no shampoos that actually ';repel'; the chlorine. However, AVEDA has an excellent shampoo that brings the hair back to the normal ph balance after the consumption of chlorine to the hair. You should also use it before to add extra protection to the hair. It is called DETOX. You may purchase at your local AVEDA retail store, or a local salon retailing the AVEDA line of products.
No there is no shampoo thar repels chlorine. If your hair is damaged or dry, your hair will absorb the chlorine quicker than healthy hair. I would recommend using shampooing your hair with a clarifying shampoo after you get out of the pool. Also, put a leave in conditioner before getting into the pool, that should help protect the hair from the chlorine.
Cold Water is always good for your hair when chlorine is in it. even after that just rinse it for a couple of mins than just put Conditioner in it too lather it up. when your ready to wash your hair again than shampoo and conditioner.
If you pre-condition and leave hair wet before pool activity your hair can only absorb so much water. Thus, it will naturally keep it out. Although if your hair becomes dry from being out of the pool then you need to resoak with water before reentry. After pool activity use a clarifying shampoo with a little baking soda to make a paste then shampoo. Do not use baking soda all the time- it is a chemical!!! Rock on- wear sunscreen.
There are a lot of different kinds of shampoos specifically for this that you can buy at Wal-Mart, Target, and Sally Beauty Supply. However, the best way to make sure that your hair does not soak up the chlorinated water is to wet your hair before you get in the pool. By doing this your hair will have soaked up the clean water, and once you're in the pool it won't be able to absorb any more. For even more defense against chlorinated water, apply a thin coat of leave-in conditioner before you get in too.
