Best Answer

The hair cuticle can be popped open by simply applying 20 Volume developer to the hair and allowing it to sit for approximately 10 minutes. No need to rinse the hair, just towel blot and apply desired color. This is great for pre-softening resistant grey hair.

If you're not sure, you can put a good coat of conditioner in your hair before swimming and it should fill the open cuticle, and help keep the chlorine from soaking into your hair.
