Next time wear a du rag and a swim cap. If someone clowns you on the swim cap, just man up and hold your ground. Nobody wants chlorine in their hair. If they did no one would wash their hair after they get out the pool. -------------

This is TSOH's swimming method:
SWIMMING METHOD
1.) When you swim before you go swimming wet your hair alil and brush it how you would outta the shower. 2.) Then drench your hair in water so that its soaked with water to the point where you just feel it cant hold anymore water. You want to be sure to do this so that it wont be able to soak up as much of the chlorine water in the pool that it usually would. Thats not healthy for your hair. It also works better if you already have some pomade in your hair because pomade is water resistant and it will keep your hair from absorbing as much chlorine. But pomade is not necessary. 3.)Now throw on a durag and tie it down tight. Now go swimming. WARNING (If you locker rooms dont have one this method makes your hair WORSE than before) 4.)Now take off your durage and drench your hair in water again and put your durag back on. You dont have to do this but if you have the time you may want to so you can rinse out the chemicals your hair absorbed from the pool. 5.)Dry your hair under the air dryer and take off your durag and your stuff will be laid down nice! For me it looks just like when I got out of the shower. This method relies soley on time though. If you have enough time for your hair to dry then you good. If not when its time for you to go back to class and you gotta take off that durag and yo stuff still damp you gone look a hot mess!  Oh. This method only worked for me cause we could swim with durags on. I just said that it was to protect my head from the chemicals. ------------- DUB-C |

i just get the chlorine in my hair, becuz it doesnt do anything to my waves. i just shampoo it out and put conditioner in, brush some and im good as new. and Davo i understand that u should stand ur ground and wear a swim cap, i dont kno about u, but i would get MAD made fun of if i wore one. but thats just me -------------

I would get made fun of too. My waves are well trained though so I would just get in the pool and wash after wards. The chlorine won't un-wave our hair.
