You can check the pool chlorine levels with some litmus paper the levels need to be between 7.2 and 7.6 on the ph scale it would need a lot of chlorine for hair to fall out
Safe levels are below 5ppm chlorine. You won't die if you swim in 10 ppm once or twice, but there could be harmful effects if you swim very regularly in high doses.

How effective is chlorine?
If you are asking about chlorine's effectiveness at destroying viruses, bacteria and other various contaminents then it is in the lead among alternative sanitizers. Chlorine sees a whole laundry list of things as foreign contaminents and destroys them on contact. The virus crypto-sporidium however is fairly immune to regular chlorine levels in a swimming pool in which case regular shocking with a mono-persulfate shock in conjunction with normal chlorine levels should remedy that and put your mind at ease.

Someone/something changed the original question and that is probably why it has not been answered.Safe levels for chlorine are 1.5 ppm to about 5.0 ppm. of free chlorine.
