does chlorine damage your hair?

I do not know much about the negative effect of chlorine and was wondering if it damages your hair and contributes to the receding hair or whatnot at all.Do swimming caps actually protect you from that, 'cause it seems like when I take it off after the practice, my hair is all wet, as if I was not wearing anything. Just wanna keep my full head of hair :-))) Thanks.

    Chlorine is actually a bleach...hence the white spots on clothes when you spill some on them. The reason peoples hair turns green has to do with the amount of copper residue in the water. High concentrations of copper will bind with hair and turn it green.:D
