Hair care, WaterBear ?

[RavenNS]

Okay, Interesting...

asuming that a person's hair isn't coloured ( or that they don't care that much about colour) and are worried about what damages might be caused to the hair, is sodium thiosufate what they should/could use to neautralize the sanitizers on a regular basis?
( could this be used on kids' hair?)

where can a person purchase sodium thiosufate ? ( is this dry or liquid?)
How would this be applied... mixed up with water or does it need some other base or activator to work?

Thanks for the info

This is great info, Thanks again Waterbear! Now I know the reason I have to get colored every time I turn around, It's the air!!!

To make it easy on yourself I would suggest two product that I KNOW work. Nexxus Aloe Rid Treatment and Nexxus Aloe Rid Shampoo. The Treatment contains citric acid and EDTA so it will remove metals and the Shampoo contains sodium thiosulfate to remove chlorien and bromine. these 2 products used together are the only ones I know of that actually work. (and I do not for for that company...wish I did!)

FYI, sodium thiosulfate is also called photograhers hypo and can be found at any camera store that sells darkroom chemicals. It is also in chlorine killer sold for pools and also in the chlorine neutralizier used in some test kits for the TA and pH tests.
