swimming and keeping your hair healthy!

[sophj-26]

Hi,

Does swimming a few times a week cause damage to the hair? Would it cause split ends or dryness? Any tips to prevent any effects?

Thanks

I have always worn that glamourous accessory which is a swiming hat... What it lacks in sex appeal it does make up for in less damaged hair. Also a decent shampoo and condition is a must. I think someone told me boots did a range for swimmers but I'm not entirely sure about that.

I would imagine the chlorine would have a drying effect, I would wear a swimming cap if I were you
