But clearly, despite being an Olympic swimmer who has spent the majority of his life submerged in the stuff, Ryan Lochte appears to have forgotten this cardinal rule of chlorine.

Lochte posted a photo of himself and his gold medal-winning 4×200 freestyle relay teammates to Instagram on Wednesday, his silvery-blond dye job instead resembling the color of tree moss.
Before his hair turned green Lochte posted a photo at a salon getting ready to apply the dye and later gave followers a look at the final product. Or is he maybe using the Olympics to audition for the role of Merman #2 in the new Aquaman movie?
Or maybe, just maybe, Lochte was planning this trick all along.
Why? Because it turns out that look doesn’t mix well with the chlorine found in swimming pools. “He’s a lovely dude”, Jones told the magazine.
Get some silver shampoo or ketchup (yes, really) on it, dude.
