I go swimming every day will my hair get damaged?

Question

I rinse before and after swimming
and deep condition my hair everyday

Answer 1

put some leave in conditioner in before swimming will help also use clarifying shampoo

Answer 2

Well it won't if you repair your hair atleast once a week! Here's what you have to do:

1. Wash your hair with enough clarifying shampoo to create a lather over the entire scalp. (This will remove product buildup and help the deep conditioner penetrate the hair shaft.) Rinse thoroughly and squeeze out excess water with a towel.

2. Rub a quarter-size dollop of deep conditioner between your palms, then rake it through your hair with your fingers. (A comb or brush can cause breakage.) Concentrate on the ends, which are usually most damaged. Those with fine hair should use slightly less conditioner (preferably one made for their hair type) and avoid the crown entirely.

3. Secure coated hair into a loose bun or twist. Cover your head with a shower cap, then wrap a warm, damp towel around it. (The heat maximizes penetration.) Leave the cap on for at least 15 minutes, then rinse hair thoroughly. Blot with a towel, and detangle strands with a wide-tooth comb.

Answer 3

You already know that its not great for your hair and rinsing your hair before and after is already a great start to protecting your hair.

There are many products that you can use before you go into the pool or ocean water for protection. You pretty much apply it just like a conditioner, and then you wash it out when you shower afterwards. Get a clarifing shampoo, use that a couple of times a week as well. Other than that, I suggest regular trimming of your ends to keep your hair healthy.

Answer 4

Yes, swimming does damage hair because of chlorine, but as long and you wash you hair right after, it will be fine. You dont have to rinse it before a swim, but after works good.
Also limit deepconditoning to twice a week, too much deep conditioning takes out hairs natural oils.

Answer 5

That should work.

However, if you think it won't, and think you may need "additional" protection.
Try using that hawian tropic tanning oil on your hair, just a little bit smoothed into your hair to provide a "barrier" between you hair and the water, don't use too much in a Chlorine swimming pool , but in a lake or and Ocean, you might use a bit more.

Some people on the beach will slick their hair back with it, protecting their hair from the salt water, no one will know it's slick back with Oil as it will only look like you just stepped out of the water anyway, and afterwards you can just Shampoo it out.

Answer 6

I think you'll be fine. I swim almost every day in the summer. I purchased this lotion like creamy conditioner. It looks like a bottle of skin lotion, but you can put it in your hair. I use it immediatly after swimming, after I've rinsed off, and it keeps my hair very soft and smells great too. Its called: Neutrogena Triple Moisture silk touch leave-in cream. It really works great!

Answer 7

As you long as you keep on rinsing and washing your hair, it will be fine. Try some swimmer's shampoo, too, from Loreal. The only thing that might happen is that the chlorine will lighten the color of your hair.

Answer 8

sure, shampoo and situation. in basic terms water won't do away with the chlorine. you may extremely get 'cleansing' shampoo. it is extremely designed to rid the hair of chlorine. Conditioner will help retore the broken hair to that's unique state.

Answer 9

well, it will not look damaged on the outside but inside, it will slowly get damaged and after a few months it will start to look damaged...i suggest you do all the stuff you do now and wear a speed o swimming hat...GOOD LUCK!!!
