COAT YOUR HAIR WITH A BUNCH OF CONDITIONER

When you visit the blue lagoon, we suggest that you tie up your hair and put a bunch of conditioner on your hair as a protective coating. Although there are different reactions to different types of hair but we have come to learn that the silica in the water will possibly dry out your hair and the conditioner will help keep the moisture in your hair.  The compounds of the silica in the water from the minerals of the rocks might dry out your hair but it’s great for your skin because of it’s anti-bacterial effect.

DO NOT WEAR CONTACT LENSES

Although it is only a myth that contact lenses will melt in your eyes due to the heat, it is still not advisable to wear them on the blue lagoon. For reasons that the silica might get in your eyes which can be very painful. Also, due to the heat and steam of the blue lagoon, your contact lenses might dry out quickly.
