The time of season is here to get wet. Pools, lakes, and water parks. Remember that chlorinated water in pools is hard on hair---both your own hair and your hair system. If do you go into a pool or water park and get your hair wet you should shampoo as soon as you get out to get the chlorine out. Natural water lakes are fine--they will have virtually no affect on your unit. Going to the ocean the salt water will also be tough on your hair. Shampoo after a dip in the salt water.
