Some people say that blondes have more fun. You may agree with this statement–that is, until swimming pool water makes your blonde locks turn green. Swimming pool water can damage your light hair and cause it to appear slightly green in color. According to Columbia University, this is due to the hard metals in the water. These metals, such as copper, iron and manganese, react with the water’s chlorine to tint your hair. Protecting and treating your locks may reduce the chance they will turn green.
