Pre-Swim Hair Defense, Prevents Chlorine Damage

I can’t believe it took me this long to start using a product like this. I picked it up before a recent beach trip because I wanted to be more proactive about protecting my hair—and it completely exceeded my expectations. The consistency, texture, and scent are all amazing. It’s lightweight, easy to apply, and doesn’t leave my hair feeling greasy or weighed down. I used it every single day before going into the ocean and pool, and I truly feel like it protected my hair from the usual dryness and damage. I love that it offers UV protection along with chlorine and salt protection—such a game changer, especially for summer. My hair is naturally dry and curly, and it usually takes a hit during beach trips, but this made a noticeable difference. Do not go to the beach or pool without this. 10/10, highly recommend—this is officially my new go-to for protecting my hair!

I’m a swim instructor and spend anywhere from 3-5 hours in the water on a daily basis. Most our pools are about 88 degrees and none of them have on site showers. I drive about 13-30 minutes until I can get to a shower. Aqua guard and I have a love hate relationship. The first time I used this I put it in like 2 minutes before I got in the pool and slathered it on. It smelled amazing and did stay in my hair all through the shift. But when it came time to shower it wouldn’t come out. It stayed in my hair making it crunchy and super tangled. I don’t like to give up on products so I did some research and experimentation and here’s what I found. 1. It doesn’t matter if it goes in your hair wet or dry. 2. Put it on like 5 minutes before going in the pool. That gives it time to absorb 3. Think of it like a top coat for your hair you want enough for it to coat it but not enough that you see super thick deposits in your hair. 4. You HAVE to use a special chlorine removing shampoo to get it out (I tried a normal clarifying shampoo and it failed so look for swim specific I buy a 3 in 1 product and it works great although sometimes I do have to wash 2 times) 5. If you have warm water it’s best to rise your hair in that right after swimming and try not to let it dry in your hair or sit in it for a long time. ( I will say that I can actually let it sit in my hair for a bit like 1-2 hours if I rinse my hair in super warm sink water before leaving) Following all the above rules it works beautifully my hair is the softest it’s ever been and while there is some chlorine damage from my failed uses I haven’t seen any damage beyond that. I even had some curls one day. I usually braid my hair and due to being an instructor and working with kids I don’t wear a swim cap and I’m really happy with the condition of my hair. Plus it smells so good for everyone wondering the smell is a sweet almond smell due to the almond oil in it. I just ran out (this sized bottle lasted me about a month) and have the huge bottle on the way

This product gives my hair great protection from sun and chlorine. Rinses out easily. If you are a frequent swimmer, this product is a lifesaver for your hair.

Leaves my processed, blonde hair, feeling soft and hydrated. No problems with chlorine green hair

This is an excellent product as I discovered the first time I used it. It kept my long naturally blonde/silver grey hair moisturized and fairly easy to comb out after spending time in both the ocean and our saline swimming pool. My hair length is below my middle back. I use no more than about a quarter cup, concentrating on covering the ends of my hair, but not neglecting the rest of my head. I’ve applied it on both dry hair and damp hair. You can work it through to cover more if applied on damp hair. I think the scent is fine-kind of a tropical fruity spell. I also notice that there was no change in my hair color, but I’ve never had that problem. I live on the Big Island of Hawai’i surrounded by a beautiful ocean and love being in the water. But, my hair started suffering from it. I’m a mature woman and the texture of my hair has changed over the years. I’ve tried several other hair conditioners that left my hair thick and greasy feeling. Aqua Guard is made specifically for salt and chlorine water situations. It’s pricey, but for me it works and worth it in order to keep my hair in good condition. I’m in the water almost every day of the week. What would make it an outstanding product is if it were Reef Safe. I hope you’ll like the product as much as I do.

Update: I now have 2 bottles with no working pump. Probably won’t order again. This is so much better than using chlorine remover shampoo. I have tried it on both wet and dry hair and think it is much easier to apply to dry hair. It is gluten free and I don’t have any reaction to it and it has kept my hair from drying out and tangling. I am really pleased with what it has done for my hair as I swim 1/2 mile 4-5 days a week. The picture only shows my hair as I am 68 and don’t want any closeups.

I have thick blonde hair that goes to my mid back. As a surfer, I try to keep it up in a top knot when I’m in the water but the salt water still makes it so incredibly dry and tangled. I tried coconut oil and detanglers before getting in the water but it’s a small step above nothing. Tried Aqua Guard this morning and my hair combed right through after surfing. It was still soft and felt conditioned. Washing it in the shower was such a breeze because it’s usually a 10-15 min fight with my hair. I highly HIGHLY recommend this!

I swim 2 to 3 times each week as part of my exercise routine. The Lifetime Fitness pool is heavily treated water. I use aqua guard on my hair before each swim. It blocks alot (but not all) of the chemicals from being absorbed into the hair. When washing my hair after swiming, the aqua guard aids the rinse of chemicals and chemical odors from my hair.

Prodotto effettivamente molto valido per l’utilizzo in piscina con cloro. L’ho usato sia prima della piscina che subito dopo, e devo dire che contribuisce in modo significativo a proteggere prima, e a restaurare poi i capelli post-esposizione al cloro, eliminandone completamente l’odore e lasciando i capelli morbidi

Este producto lo compré para proteger mi pelo del cloro de la piscina, dado que nado bastante. Es como una especie de cera líquida que te cubre el pelo. Yo lo llevo largo, así que no me parece una solución idónea, pero para pelos cortos está bien. En todo caso, lo recomiendo!

Genuinely amazing it has kept my hair so soft after a swim

Excelente protector para el cabello si vas a la playa o alberca. Protege tu cabello del sol y el cloro, dejándolo muy suave y con un delicioso aroma. Me encanta
