Sodium Thiosulphate is a really good reducing agent, so it reduces the Chlorine from the pool water to Chloride ions, which can then be washed away when you rinse your hair. It’ll also reduce any oxidised metals such as nickel (which is what turns your hair green). So it’s not just a myth!

It’s a good idea to look out for Sodium Thiosulphate (EDTA is another one which might help, not sure) on the ingredients list on the anti-chlorine shampoo to make sure it’s actually going to be something that helps.

I wonder where people like Anna are from, how they were raised, etc. Hmm.

Anyway, I also have a saltwater pool and was wondering if you could shed some light onto the damage that could cause, if any. It’s been touted as having a much better effect on joint, making swimming not only enjoyable but therapeudic as well. It is also said to not be harmful to hair or skin. As another comment mentioned, it still uses chlorine.
