Is there any problem with taking a shower after dipping in the Mikvah? I once heard there was.
Answer
The source for this is Shabbos 14a and Yorah Deah 201:75 Rama.

As in many Halachos there is a Machlokes. In summary according to the custom of the Ashkenazim, a woman should not bathe or shower after immersing in the Mikveh. Sepharadim, however, do not follow this custom, and thus Sephardic women may bathe or shower immediately after immersion without any concern.
