My kids have been loving the pool. The girls are in it almost every day, for hours on end. Ryan goes in sometimes, but he likes to go do side jobs with Junior.The only problem I am having is Brandi's hair. Her hair is long and fine, and the chlorine is making it feel like straw. I have tried washing it as soon as she gets out of the pool, but that doesn't seem to be making a difference. I am thinking about giving her a hot oil treatment, but am not sure if that will help her fragile hair or make it worse?
Can you treat a seven year old's hair like that? I know I need to do something. She had such soft, beautiful hair, and I want it back in that condition. The chlorine doesn't seem to bother kasi's hair at all, but hers is course and thick to begin with.
I remember when we had a pool growing up, I spent the summers with green hair! lol! At least Boo's is still blond!

I have never had to deal with that. Have you tried doing a Google search for dealing with chlorine hair damage?
Mary, I haven't, but that's a great idea!
You know if you lather her hair in Mayonaise, and let it sit for a bit, then wash it out, thats a safe natural way to do it as well.
mayo....I think I have heard that before, and that won't put more chemicals in...I might just try that! Thanks!
I remember having green hair from the pool as a kid. I don't remember what was done about it. Good luck getting her hair back to being soft. I'm sure she would like it looking good before school starts.
A hot oil treatment would probably help....you could try a leave-in-conditioner as well. I hear that the mayo works wonders too but is hard to wash out.
