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!

my secret:
1: rinse in cold water shower very well before getting in the pool making sure ALL my hair is soaked w/ regular tap water (I think I read this tip in an old swim magazine in the early 90's) yes, it is cold but it makes jumping in the pool feel warm! :)
I often just shower in cool water beforehand, and it does seem to work. It also means I'm in the water 2 or 3 minutes ahead of my lane mates, who look to be a little too hesitant to get in on time.
