Does chlorine affect hair growth?

Chlorine is just about one of the WORST chemicals or substances that could ever meet your hair and skin. Since it is a cleaning fluid, it dries out your hair, leaving it brittle and turning it a light color. If you have black, red, or brown hair, your hair will look lighter than it normally does. It doesn't really stunt growth but it dries out hair terribly.

If your hair is already wet and you just died it two days ago and you want to go swimming with the chlorine turn your hair and scalp green?

It all depends on how porous (or how open the hair cuticle is) your hair is. If it is very porous it may turn your hair green. 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.
