hi all, I'm writing from Italy. Hope not to be politically incorrect, you know, sometimes one uses wrong expressions which may be offensive without knowing it - English is not my language.

My question: has someone understood why there are no black swimmers at the top of the world rankings? is there a physiologic reason? Thank you Antonio

And this band with the cap keeps the entire head dry? I would be ecstatic if I could avoid shampooing and blow drying my hair every time I swim.... :bitching:
As I said there are many black swimmers nationwide, someday one of these swimmers male or female will become a superstar and that will create more swimming intrest with everyone just as Tiger Woods broke into golf and became a star and he has givin the golf game a bost for all.
Hair care is a important issue with all female swimmers and relaxed styles and perms hair coloring, require alot of care and chlorine is damaging to everyones hair, salon costs yes can be much higher for swimmers, for swimmers who swim for fun and exercise there are swim cap options that can prevent much of the damage.
See www.reocities.com/.../swimband.html
for some details on easy ways to protect hair from chlorine damage. the home made band can be worn under or over a swim cap or both and the combo of cap and band shown on the page is very effective. After swimming a quick blow dry is useually all thats needed, a bit of conditioner applied lightly to the ends also can help before slipping on the band and cap.
