This is so logical and apparent given just a moment of thought. An effective shower filter can be putrchased for not much money that will remove chlorine. Chlorine is also absorbed directly into the lungs via steam generated in the shower. Even though municipal tap water is considered "safe", it's not, and should never be used for drinking, bathing, cooking, teeth brushing, etc. without first being filtered to remove chlorine and other toxins.Chlorine in the bathwater is linked to cancer: "Low levels of chlorine in tap water used for bathing can almost double the risk of bladder cancer, a study claims.
Scientists found chemical by-products from mains water containing the disinfectant can be absorbed through the skin in the bath or shower and accumulate in the bladder.
Swimming in public pools can also present a risk because chlorine levels are much higher.
The risk is caused by chemical by-products called THMs which are produced when chlorine is added to water."
