Relaxed or Color-treated and a swimmer?

Hey ladies,

I'm going to start swimming again for the winter and had some questions.
My hair is natural but it is color treated and I had some concerns. I swam last summer and my hair did well. However, I wasn't color-treated. I colored the front of my hair with permanent color in September 2009.

My question are for those of who are chemically treated (color or relaxed). For those of you that fit into either category and swim, how has your hair held up? Have you had any damage? What is your regimen?

I plan to wet my hair before going in the pool and put conditioner and oil in my hair. After I'm done, I plan to use a chelating shampoo and deep condition afterwards. I braided up my hair (without extensions) and plan to leave my hair in braids for 2 months.

Thank you!
 
Not bad. Used Nexxus aloe rid and conditioned, but REAL important to take gown and rinse. Not effective rinsing if left up braided. And Condition!
