They use bromine in hot tubs sometimes because chlorine isn’t as effective in hot water tubs...

I have never seen a “shocked” pool turn green.

“hot tub folliculitis” that causes all the hair on your body to fall out!


Hair falling out? Very familiar with hot tub folliculitis, never heard of all hair falling out and never seen it with 2 family members who had it.

After tending to a 50k/gallon pool and a 1500g hot tub for years, the problem is low chlorine. Lemme guess, no money?

Brown feces, we get.
But what causes sickly green?
The world wonders.

Yep, if it’s bad enough, all your hair can fall out. Happened to a resident at a property my company managed once when the idiot maintenance guys were not chlorinating the tub often enough. Had to settle with him for a pretty penny to avoid a lawsuit.

“Severe infections can cause permanent hair loss and scarring.”
