I have had a bad rash and hives for 2 months now.. I did not realize it was my hair dye and did it again . I have had to go to the hospital twice my neck swelled up and my air way was closing. I have not used hair dye for about 4 weeks now and the rash and iching and burning of my skin gets better in one spot and then moves to a different spot. Does anyone know how long this can last.. I have had all of the symptoms that I read about including weeping head and ears..
HI,
If you have history of allergic reaction, this is more likely a reaction toAt the hair dye. Symptoms of an allergic reaction to a topically applied hair product include an itchy, red rash on the eyes, ears and face and, sometimes, facial swelling. The component of the dye that is responsible is the coal tar para-phenylenediamine (PPD). At this point, stop using the dye and see if it resolves.
have appt for allergy testing in a couple of weeks) I was excited to find the Act Naturals (from Advanced Technologies) line of hair dye, purchased it online, and had my hair colored last week. Within 24 hours, my symptoms returned: swelling, soreness, redness, itchiness of my scalp, ears, face and neck. Is it possible that the coloring process "reactivated" PPD that is likely still in my hair from hair coloring with a product containing PPD 6 weeks ago?
May I suggest that you
make an appointment with your family doctor and let your doctor see
this rash on your upper back. What hair dye did you use ? Did you buy
the hair dye over the counter ? Your allergic reaction doesn't sound
mild to me. If after using this hair dye you got pains in your chest and a
severe rash on your upper back that's not mild.
I dyed my hair 3 weeks ago and have had a string of reactions on my head and neck which have become progressively worse. Firstly i had a small rash around my hair line and on my scalp which was a little itchy but two days after this my whole face had swollen. My doctor prescribed me steroids to ease the swelling and flucloxacillin aswell as antihistamines however the rash has not subsided.It has spread onto my face and neck and a small patch has appeared on my arm.
Did you know that hair dressers who are around hair dye for so many years have a higher rate of bladder cancer than other people?
I did this research because I have MCS and I wanted to know if there was anything that would be safe for me to use. I have concluded that there pretty much isn't anything I feel comfortable trying for myself.
Hey girls, this is my forage pregnancy and I'm 32 weeks and 5 days pregnant with my baby girl. Would it be safe to dye my hair if so what kind of hair dye is recommended?
For my face btw I use neutrogena (the orange pump liquid), which is really mild, in the morning and in the evening. My OB said it was okay. I don't dye my hair either, just pick out an occasional white hair lol. I know some of it can be dangerous so I really would ask my OB with that question.
I wanted to dye my hair (my roots are coming out) and I'm maybe about 2-3 weeks pregnant. Is it not recommended or will I (and baby) be at risk? My husband told me he read that I should stay away from fumes. Just want to make sure before I risk anything.
I've had a reaction to hair dye and now my scalp is itchy, sore and inflamed. My face and glands are swollen, painful and tender. I applied the dye 3 days ago. I've washed my hair with clarifying shampoo, took oral Benadryl as well as applied cortisone 10 to my scalp. Does it get worse before it gets better. It seems to get worse each day. No breathing problems though but an occasional headache.
I had also used a new hair dye (unrelated to the patch test a week before, with no itching or problems with my scalp.
The itchiness on my arms seem to be worse at night, and are not there constantly as they seem to come and go during the day.
My doctor has given me an antibacterial medicine mixed with a topicl steroid, but the itching keeps moving around and is unbearable; it gets better when I put a cold towel over it but that is all I can think to do.
Hello,
About 6 weeks ago I developed dermatitis (or raised small bumps) on the side of my face, neck that were extremely itchy. It happened about 7-10 days after I got my hair dyed, so I though it might be a reaction to the dye. I took benedryl and go a steroid shot. The benedryl took the itching down about 25-40%. I then went to an allergist who put on prednisone, I felt zoned, but this did not help the rash.
Hair dye allergy often produces a skin irritation at the hairline, forehead, neck, or swelling about the eyes and face, none of which you mentioned in your post. Patients allergic to hair dye do occasionally complain of fever; you mentioned "hyperthermia." Other symptoms could be urticaria(hives) nausea and difficulty swallowing. If your mother chooses to dye her hair, she obviously would want to use a producut that does not threaten her health.
