Below are some common questions about our products
How does AQUA GUARD Pre-Swim work?
AQUA GUARD coats your hair's cuticle layer to:
A) Stop chlorine and other nasties from penetrating your hair follicles. When chlorine gets in, your natural oils come out. That's why it is better to prevent damage than attempt to repair it. AQUA GUARD stops damage before it starts.
B) Prevent oxidized copper (and other minerals) from bonding to your hair. Bonded minerals weigh down your hair, leaving it flat, dull, and discolored. (Bonded oxidized copper is also what causes blondes to turn green... yuck!) AQUA GUARD's protective layer does not allow these minerals to get ahold of your hair like they would without it!
How do I use AQUA GUARD Pre-Swim?
Using AQUA GUARD is easy!
Generously work AQUA GUARD into your hair from base to tip immediately before swimming.
For best results allow AQUA GUARD a few minutes to settle before diving in.
Excess AQUA GUARD will wash away in the water, leaving only a thin protective barrier on each strand of hair.
Who is AQUA GUARD for?
AQUA GUARD is for everyone!
We developed AQUA GUARD to protect all hair types of all ages from the full spectrum of swimming-related hair damage.
AQUA GUARD works great for dense curls, bleach blonds, color treated hair, and everything in between!
Where can I use AQUA GUARD?
AQUA GUARD works great in all bodies of water: pools, lakes, rivers, and oceans!
Our formula is easy on pool filters and 100% reef safe, so you can feel good knowing that while you protect your hair with AQUA GUARD, you are also keeping harmful chemicals out of our oceans.
What's the best product combo for my hair?
We now have a full line of hair care products, from Pre-Swim Hair Defense, to speciality swim Shampoo and Conditioner... to detanglers and hair masks!
So this question is a tough one.
Of course, we'd love to say "try them all!"
But we know that isn't always realistic.
Therefore, the best answer is something like this:
It depends on how often you swim, and what swimming-related hair problems bother you the most.
Pre-Swim Hair Defense is and will always be the core foundation for a healthy hair routine for every swimmer, so start there.
After that, adding our Shampoo and Conditioner to your routine is a logical next step.
If frizz/tangle mitigation and UV protection are major concerns, our UV Detangler is the best in the business.
If your hair has already suffered major damage, our hair mask, Swimplex, is the way to go.
