How Can You Protect Your Hair From Chlorine?

To protect hair from chlorine, rinse and wet your hair with clean, non-chlorinated water before swimming; this saturates hair and reduces chlorine absorption. Then, apply natural oils like coconut or olive oil, or a conditioner as a protective barrier.

Wearing a swim cap provides the best protection by preventing chlorine from contacting hair directly.

After swimming, rinse hair thoroughly with fresh water and use a clarifying shampoo or deep conditioner to remove chlorine residues and restore moisture. These steps help prevent dryness, brittleness, color fading, and damage caused by chlorine exposure.
