Okay so today I am going swimming and I have 4c type hair which will get very nappy when I get water in it
Is there a certain style I could wear to prevent it from getting so nappy

Wet you hair with some fresh water then add a little conditioner so not as much of the chlorine get in your hair then braid it.

Braid it if you plan on getting your head wet or put it in a high puff. I'm natural and I don't usually wet my hair when I go swimming because I know it'll be a mess and I just don't like my face/hair in water especially with chlorine

Braiding it works best for me. it will probably still get a little nappy, but it shouldn't be as bad.

When a water has chlorine natural hair become dry and light hair can become even green. In summer after swimming I usually use shampoo that remove it. I buy it on http://www.proswimwear.co.uk/. So now for me it's not a problem)
