## Questions & Answers

**Q: The adult version says you can apply to dry hair-- but this product says to apply to wet hair. Does it matter if wet or dry?**
A: You can apply it to wet or dry hair on AquaGuard for Kids just like the adult version.

**Q: would this still work if applied 1-2 hours before swimming?**
A: Im sure it would, it's an excellent product. I was surprised at how well it works. I bought it for my daughter, but I use it as well now.  The only issue is that you need to wet your hair to apply it, otherwise, I would not think that applying it earlier is an issue.

**Q: What are difference in ingredients between the kids and the regular one?**
A: I have no idea.  I use the kids' version since I bought it for my daughter and it works very well.

**Q: Does the kids version contain fragrance also?**
A: A slight fragrance smells more like a lightly scented conditioner

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My hair doesn't feel dry and brittle after swimming
*by A***R on 18 August 2022*

Use this for swimming in a chlorinated pool, hair certainly feels better post swim when I use it than when I don't. The proof will be in what my hairdresser says next time he sees it!
