When hair is treated with hydrogen peroxide, it undergoes a bleaching process that can strip away natural pigments, making it lighter. If hair that has been bleached with hydrogen peroxide is then exposed to a chlorine pool, the chlorine can further damage the hair, leading to dryness, brittleness, and discoloration. This combination can make the hair more prone to breakage and may result in a greenish tint due to the reaction between chlorine and the hair's remaining pigments. It's advisable to take protective measures, such as using a swim cap or applying a leave-in conditioner, before swimming in chlorine pools.
