What are the dangers of men's hair dyeing?

Generally speaking, the harm of hair dyeing for men is greater than that for women, but it does not rule out that everyone has different physical constitutions and reacts differently to the various ingredients in hair dye. Some male friends can adapt, but some will have allergic reactions after using hair dye, or itchy and painful scalp, or even urticaria, etc., so it is recommended that male friends dye their hair as little as possible.

One is the acute reaction to hair dyeing. People have different physiques and react differently to the various ingredients in hair dye. Some people can adapt, while others have allergic reactions after using hair dyes, such as itchy and painful scalps, urticaria, and systemic reactions such as fever and swelling. Therefore, an allergy test must be done before dyeing hair, and this procedure should not be skipped for the sake of convenience. Barbers should also follow the rule of "no hair dyeing without an allergy test" to avoid adverse consequences.

Second, are there any potential problems with long-term use of hair dyes? Can long-term hair dyeing really cause cancer? According to statistics from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, for every 10,000 people who use each brand of hair dye, 15.2 people have adverse reactions (excluding damage to the hair quality). Research by the American Contact Dermatitis Association shows that hair dyes may cause dermatitis. Of course, these reactions are short-lived and will not cause sequelae as long as they are avoided in the future. People are more concerned about whether there are potential injuries. The United States has conducted experiments on feeding hair dyes to animals, and has reported that animals have thyroid cancer, liver cancer, and gene mutations. Some British scholars have suggested that people who dye their hair frequently will increase their chances of developing breast cancer. Some people believe that hairdressers who are frequently exposed to hair dyes have a higher incidence of lung cancer. However, these experiments and viewpoints have not yet been recognized and accepted. There are also many research reports that believe that hair dyes have nothing to do with human cancer.

Although there is no definitive conclusion on the carcinogenicity of hair dyes, the harm of hair dyeing is beyond doubt, but it is indisputable that hair dyes can cause allergies, have certain damage to hair quality, and have a certain irritating effect on the scalp. Some so-called "pure natural" hair dyes inevitably have other ingredients in the production process, and they have also been proven to be allergenic, so you must pay attention to them in your life. First, you should do an allergy test to prevent acute reactions. Second, don't dye your hair frequently, and don't let the hair dye stay on the scalp for too long when dyeing your hair. Wash your hair several times with clean water after dyeing. Never let hair dye stain eyelashes, eyebrows, etc. Do not dye your hair when there are wounds on your scalp. Taking these measures can reduce the burden of hair dyes.

We mainly introduced the harm of hair dyeing for men in the above article. After our introduction, we also know that the harm of hair dyeing is actually very great, because hair dyeing will damage the scales of the scalp, cause the hair to lose moisture, and make the hair rough and frizzy, etc., and some inferior hair dyes may cause potential harm to the body. For the sake of health, dye your hair less!
