Some types of hair dyes can damage the health of the scalp, and although the color is very attractive, it may harm the health of the scalp, and the hair dye may seem a quick solution to dull hair or a fun way to express oneself, but the hair dye has hidden effects.
According to the Times Now newspaper, most commercial hair dyes, especially permanent and semi -permanent, contain harsh chemicals such as ammonia, hydrogen peroxide, and barvinyllene Diamin (PPD), and these materials may cause a group of scalp problems, from dryness and itching to severe allergic reactions or chemical burns.
Health experts pointed out that the frequent exposure to these chemicals may disrupt the natural barrier of the scalp, and strip them of its protective oils, and with the passage of time this may lead to chronic dryness, inflammation and increased hair loss, which are problems that often pass without being observed until the damage appears.
Signs indicate that the scalp is unhealthy
- Itching or feeling burned after coloring
- Symptoms similar to dandruff or peeling
- Sensitivity during washing or combing
- Sensing hair or hair loss abnormally
What can you do before your hair dye session?
- Test the dye on a small area of the skin to reduce the effects of allergies.
- Leave to the dormitory dyes of the scalp and look for ammonia -free alternatives, or free of PPD, or vegetable alternatives that contain moisturizing ingredients.
- Prepare your scalp by using a nourishing oil or a barrier cream a night before to protect the skin.
- Distribute the dye sessions and wiping the scalp time to recover between treatments.
- Invest in the scalp care after dyeing the hair and using the sulfate -free shampoo and a calming serum for the scalp to reduce inflammation and restore balance.
