The blue lagoon is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Iceland.

The
Blue lagoon can be popular at almost any time of day. The Blue Lagoon is a
geothermal pool, spa and hotel located in a lava field in Iceland.
The Blue Lagoon’s temperature water averages a gloriously warm 38°C.
The Blue Lagoon’s water temperature is so nice that you can enjoy it in freezing
air temperatures and not even notice how cold the air temperature really is.
Honestly, your body is so warm from the water that you can even run across the
outside of the thermal pool and not be in shock.
The water you are soaking in at The Blue Lagoon is technically waste water
from the geothermal power plant that you can see from the Lagoon itself.
Yes, the water is natural but there wasn’t a pool here before some marketing
geniuses decided to create one. Technically the Blue Lagoon is not one of the
natural hot springs in Iceland.
Moreover, the lava field surrounding the Blue Lagoon is 800 years old. I
personally think having both the water and the lava be natural phenomenon more
than makes up for the fact that the thermal pool itself was recently created.
The water has minerals in it that are supposed to make your skin feel great.
On the other hand, the Blue Lagoon will leave your hair feeling like straw. If you
put in lots and lots of conditioner on your hair after soaking in the Blue Lagoon,
your hair will return to normal.
Alternatively, you can take some preventive treatment to minimize the effects of
Blue Lagoon hair. Take leave-in conditioner with you and apply when you are
rinsing your hair during the pre-Lagoon shower. After your hot springs experience,
you should use deep conditioner. Your hair will still feel icky but the return to
normalcy will be a lot faster.
