My hair: a swimming disaster?

Hello again...I love hard core swimming...I have this leave-in conditioner that I will start using every time that I get out of the water (swimming starts tonight). What else can I do to keep my hair smooth during swim season. And is there anything that i can do during my off-season to prepare my hair for the disaster that comes with a chlorine filled pool????????

Also: My sister (age 9) uses this...but she has scraggly hair Probably because she is a tomboy and doesn't really care about her hair. However, she is starting to gain interest about her hair. This conditioner makes her hair a little better, but not by much.

AlSO: she has bleach blonde hair (naturally) and I have dirty blonde hair. She has thin hair...I have thick hair. She has straight hair.....and i have wavy hair.

Please be serious about this...THANKS

Before you get in the pool wet your hair with non-chlorinated water - your hair is like a sponge absorbing water, so if you allow it to absorb non-chlorinated water first, it won't be able to absorb so much chlorinated water.

Another less popular, but very effective, way to protect your hair in the swimming pool is to wear a swimming cap.

You must also condition your hair with a daily conditioner and use a weekly deep conditioner.

For you I would definetly recommend Pantene smoothing conditioner. It keeps your hair smooth and it gets rid of knots. It really works well.

Chlorine does dry hair and will change the color of bleached blond.Why not try a stylish swim cap.Otherwise I would recommend a hot oil tx.

Try using a swim cap. This will cut down on the exposure your hair has to the chlorine in the pool. If you just don't want to use a swim cap, be sure to wash your hair immediately after swimming (while it is still damp). Then, apply a regular (rinse away) conditioner (let sit for 10 minutes before rinsing). Then apply the leave in conditioner and style your hair.
