Thanks a bunch for your answers!
Having held both Barber and Cosmetologist licenses in the state of Florida for 29 years and having taught both professions I can tell you that it is NOT chlorine (at normal and even shock levels) that causes hair to become "straw like' but exposure to the UV rays of the sun. (You can sit by your pool and never go in the water and it will happen just as fast
) Also chlorine will NOT cause the hair to turn green. That is from copper and I have outlined a safe and effective way to deal with that problem in another post
