I went through a couple million pages of old threads and didn't come over a topic like this...maybe I just missed it in my skimming, but if not...
my hair is completely dead. Chlorine build-up, dry and just BLAH. I have asked around at those stores that only sell hair products, and they always reccomend a different one. I can't not calculate how much money I have spent on various hair shampoos and conditioners that were suppose to be GREAT for swimmers. I was wondering what some of you all use. I don't have a problem splurging on a product...if its going to work!

I really like Head and Shoulders for right after the swim (it seems to strip the hair of Cl-). Then I follow with the Clairol conditioner for permed or color treated hair (my hair is neither of those things, but it's the most moisturizing one). Then I use a leave in conditioner. A gel variety rather than a spray. I swear my hair is actually better when I swim than when I don't. Swimming gives it more body.
Also, oyu could try wearing a cap. I know some men think they look dorky, but it really helps minimize the chlorine damage.
