Warning: Hair Dye Causes Scalp Damage 

Countless men and women are affected by hair loss caused by heredity, medical condition and natural factors. Unfortunately, the hair loss of many of other individuals could have been prevented -by avoiding products applied to the hair containing harsh chemicals that increasingly damage the hair follicle with every use. 

Why can hair loss occur after using permanent hair dyes? Permanent hair dye penetrates the cuticle of the hair, damaging it. The hair is exposed to hydrogen peroxide and ammonia, causing overlapping of cuticular seates to lift from the hair cortex, thereby leading to rapid loss of amino acid. By removing the proteins that build the structural strength, the hair shaft is weakened. The chemical damage results in an easily fractured hair shaft and eventual hair loss.

Permanent hair color dye products containing para-phenylenediamene (PPD), combinations of hydrogen peroxide and ammonia, as well as other chemical ingredients have proven to be extremely harmful to one’s health; especially through overuse. Chemical hair dye has caused major scalp damage, resulting in allergic contact dermatitis, leading to permanent damage.

Problems associated with chemical hair dye:

  • Scalp damage from chemical hair dye can be permanent.
  • Irreversible damage to the protein structure and fracture of the hair shaft.
  • Epidermal type of melasma on the forehead and neck; black circle around the eyes due to sun sensitization of the skin.
  • Hair shaft damage produces dull, brittle, unmanageable hair.

The hair shaft becomes thinner and finer as we grow older and the risk of harsh reaction from chemical hair dye increases with each use. Therefore, it is better to avoid chemical dyes altogether and use a natural, plant-based (vegetable) hair dye. In fact, henna hair dye is the only alternative natural hair dye, recommended by the FDA, for natural hair loss prevention.

Dermatologists worldwide want potential patients to be aware of the risks involved in using chemical hair dye. Since scalp damage can be irreversible, why risk it? Use what many dermatologists recommend: pure, all-natural henna for hair.
