I swim several times a week, and before using this shampoo, my hair was dry and often reeked of chlorine. This product is amazing at restoring the hair after a pool swim and does a great job at removing the chlorine. I also highly recommend the conditioner.

On the other hand, my stylist recommends soaking my hair in cold water before swimming so my hair doesn't absorb as much of the pool water.

My daughter is on a swim team and swims several times a week. Her hair was really taking a hit from the chlorine. When she used regular shampoo, her hair still felt like it had a "coating" on it, not to mention she couldn't get the smell of the chlorine out.

Desperate, I ordered a bottle of this shampoo and, voila, it works just like it says! Hair soft, chlorine smell gone, sticky coating is history! Highly recomended also is the Ultra Swim Conditioner.

I love this product, only thing is I can't find it in the stores once summer is over ... we have hard well water that we treat with Chlorine, so our daily baths and showers are like going swimming ... my hair is dry, brittle and feels like straw when I wash it, but this product is the BEST ... I love it and my hair is softer, shinier and much healther. I use it daily and it doesn't alter my hair color with, seeing that I color my hair to cover the greys that I'm getting. I stand by this product ... that is why I am here to order it so I have it through the winter months as well. I also use the Ultra Swim conditioner with it ... both are great products.

I swim at the gym 3-4 times a week. My hair was so damaged from the chlorine that i was afraid i would have to stop swimming. Then i went on line and found this product. It is gentle enough to use everyday and really gets the chlorine smell out. I've been using it for a month now and my hair is no longer brittle. One of the things i did start to do (learned it on line)is before i get in the pool, i always make sure to wet (soaking)my hair with cool water. Then i add a small amount of leave in conditioner to my hair to help lock out the chlorine some what. Between this product and the leave in conditioner, my hair is doing much better. And the color, (i color my hair for the grays) does not fade any faster than it normally would. Most people can't find this shampoo in the stores. I have only found it at CVS on the bottem shelf where no one can notice it. The price is $5.75 or so. They don't seem to carry the conditioner though.

I have dark brown, almost black hair. The type that usually doesn't have real complaints when it comes to chlorine. That was before I started swimming in a hotel pool that LOADS their water with hydrogen peroxide (and it tastes like salt, too!). At first, I had no problems using my regular shampoo and conditioner. About a week into swimming every day - even with a cap - and my hair started feeling like straw. Absolutely horrible. I tried leaving my regular conditioner in longer and even left some on the ends after my shower in the hopes of helping things. Didn't work. So I started browsing the web and came across UltraSwim. Thank goodness!

I purchased both the UltraSwim Chlorine-Removal Shampoo and the UltraSwim Conditioner. I was disappointed in how watered down both the shampoo and conditioner seemed (the reason for giving 4*s and not 5). The shampoo doesn't lather very well at all, so I ended up adding it to my regular shampoo and was able to create the results I wanted (more lathering ability). I made sure to keep the UltraSwim conditioner on the directed 3 minutes and sure enough, after my shower, I could tell that my hair felt better.

I felt that the chlorine-removal properties of the UltraSwim shampoo were what I was experiencing and I really like my regular conditioner, so I stopped using the UltraSwim conditioner and went back to using my regular conditioner. The results were disappointing. I could tell that my hair didn't feel as good as it had after using the UltraSwim shampoo combo (mixed with my regular shampoo) and the UltraSwim conditioner. I switched back to the UltraSwim conditioner and the results improved.

Since then, I went to have my hair cut and mentioned to my stylist that I had begun swimming regularly in a highly treated pool. She said she couldn't tell. Even when my hair was wet! After another appointment 2 months later - my stylist still can't feel any chlorine build-up. If you are at your wit's end and just can't take it anymore, this is probably a good buy for you. You've probably tried everything else, right?

I'm not sure if it's getting all the chlorine out but my hairstylist cannot tell I have been swimming 2-3 times a week in an indoor pool for 6 months. I have long hair that goes past my shoulder blades. I use about a dollar size amount in my hair and do be careful because it is very runny in that it will spill right out of your hand. I think you get the best results the sooner you use it after being in chlorinated water. I tried waiting until I got home but my hair doesn't feel as clean. One other thing I do to complement the product is to use the sister conditioner before and after the shampoo. What I mean is that I use the conditioner in my hair prior to getting in the pool and then when I shower after pool use I use the shampoo and then the conditioner. I have the best results doing it this way. I don't have much to compare it other than your traditional shampoos and conditioners but this is far far better and the price is good too.

Very good product. Apparently chlorine has to chemically broken down, not just washed out with plain soap. UltraSwim does a great job of this.
Thanks.

I have two daughters, with very long hair, who swim several days a week. This is the ONLY shampoo that removes all the chlorine to leave beautifully clean hair. We don't ever use anything else!!

I'm a lifeguard and swim instructor for the summer and I have to get in the pool twice a day and then sit in the sun for hours. My hair was dry and the chlorine smell was IMPOSSIBLE to get out! I used Ultraswim shampoo and then the conditioner for the first time today and my hair is soft, it smells good, and it feels revived... after using it only once! I highly recommend this stuff- it's cheap, you can buy it at Walmart.com for even cheaper, and IT WORKS!!!

If you have swimmers in in your family this is a must get product during the peak swimming months. I have a very light haired child and her hair was beginning to look and feel like straw when I started using this shampoo. Her hair is now full of shine and very manageable. It also smells great!
