Is the chlorine used by a pool chlorinator the same as household bleach?
Chlorine used in pools is much different from household bleach. Pool chlorine contains bacteria killing agents that are safe for human contact and, in most cases, do not cause health issues or rashes if used in moderation. Also pool chlorine does not have color removing agents and will not turn anything 'white', it is strictly used to keep pool water clean, bacteria free and clear. Household bleach, on the other hand, can be harmful to humans, animals and can also remove the color from clothing.
What is a safe chlorine for swimming?
Someone/something changed the original question and that is probably why it has not been answered.Safe levels for chlorine are 1.5 ppm to about 5.0 ppm. of free chlorine. You should have a test kit that will give you free chlorine readings as opposed to just a chlorine residual. Free chlorine is what sanitizes the pool water. If you can smell a chlorine odor coming from your pool then you do not have enough chlorine in the water.K

When to use chlorine bleach and when to use non chlorine bleach?
When doing laundry, chlorine bleach is used for white clothing only. Non-chlorine bleach is used for other color-safe clothing. Chlorine bleach should always be diluted and never put directly on the clothing; it will weaken the fibers. Chlorine bleach can also be used in the home to sanitize and clean. Be sure to use only on color-safe, non-porous items, such as a toilet or bathtub. Wear gloves when using and always ventilate the room you are in. Also, avoid getting any on your clothes as even one drop will permenantly stain.

Is all detergent safe for colors?
No. Some detergents contain bleach, which can pull the color out of some clothes. If a detergent contains bleach it must say so on the label, so if it does not say bleach on the label it is most likely color-safe. Many labels now specifically say that they are "color-safe" for "all colors", so look for those words.

Why would you want to use non-chlorhine wash?
I stopped using chlorine bleach, because it's too toxic. It wreaked havoc on my sinuses and skin. Also, bleach is corrosive. It is only good for brightening white cotton. Use it on anything else and it will spot and otherwise ruin clothing. Use it too much on whites, they'll eventually turn yellow or wear out faster because of the bleach use. Chlorine bleach is not good for colors as I've explained before, however great substitutes exist. I use hydrogen peroxide, or vinegar and baking soda. I've never combined all three. These concoctions are color safe and brighten or whiten just fine without the allergic effects of chlorine bleach. Chlorine bleach is icky. I will never use it again.
How does chlorine effect newly pierced ears?
Your colors look brighter and your white look whiter. Chlorine is an oxidizer (bleach contains chlorine) Chlorine is used in swimming pools to kill bacteria that is harmful to humans, in lower concentrations it's used as a surface disinfectant to kill bacteria and mold in kitchens and bathrooms. When used in pools it's concentration is monitored to ensure it is in safe levels that work to kill germs but low enough to not bleach your skin* (*not that it would but I am just saying for humour content). As for your ear piercings the pool should pose no harm to your piercings and you should shower after swimming and rinse the piercings out just to be on the safe side.
