Get a special shampoo to remove the chlorine. If your hair has a buildup of chlorine now, put the shampoo on damp hair with plastic bag and let it sit for 30 minutes. As the other answers stated, wet your hair with tap water before entering the pool and put on conditioner before entering the water. Don't over use the shampoo, it does strip the hair. If your hair is blond you would need to use it every other shampooing if you swim everyday. If not blond then every 3rd or 4shampooing. If you don't swim often then use after each swimming.

If you put leave in conditioner or any type of oil in your hair before you swim, please stay out of any pool I use! I am very sensitive to perfumes and most conditioners are loaded with scents.

That is really inconsiderate to clog up pool filters with hair gunk. If you are using your own pool in your own back yard, its your cleaning bill.

The solution (pun intended) is so easy. Just shampoo and rinse your hair with a solution of vinegar. About 2 tablespoons of white vinegar to 2 quarts of warm water.

Dab on a little balm such as Alberto VO5 after swimming. I found a hair balm with sunscreen in it a few years ago... Can't remember the name... try looking for a product like that. To use AFTER swimming.
