With the new year comes a fresh start, and many people want to change their look by dyeing their hair. However, during the pandemic, many people have chosen to stay home.Dye your hair yourselfHowever, self-dyeing hair can easily lead to uneven coloring and damaged hair. Dermatologist Dr. Chung Chun-kin will provide a clear and concise analysis of the differences between salon hair dyeing and self-dyeing, as well as the potential risks of self-dyeing.
Safety and allergic reactions of hair dyeing
Dr. Zhong stated that hair dyeing itself is not a high-risk activity, and is generally quite safe unless there is an allergy to specific ingredients. The most common side effects are allergic or irritating reactions, which may lead to scalp inflammation. Mild reactions may only involve itching, redness, and peeling; severe reactions may involve ulcers, bleeding, and suppuration. Although severe reactions (such as blisters) are relatively rare, if any allergic reaction occurs, you should seek medical attention immediately and follow your doctor's instructions for medication. It usually heals within a few days.
To avoid allergic reactions to hair dye, it is recommended to perform a sensitivity test beforehand. Apply a small amount of hair dye to the inside of your wrist or neck, wait 20-30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Observe for 10 minutes to half a day. If an allergic reaction occurs, such as burning sensation, redness, swelling, or blisters, avoid using the product. Dr. Zhong also advises against frequently switching between different brands of hair dye. If you have not experienced an allergic reaction to a certain brand in the past, the chance of having an allergic reaction when using that brand again in the future is relatively low.
Hair dyeing techniques andHair protection
When dyeing your hair, do not use excessive amounts of hair dye. Many people mistakenly believe that the more hair dye used, the more vibrant the color will be, but in fact, hair dye only needs to be applied to the affected area.hairIt's not the scalp that should be exposed to the dye. Using too much dye can actually increase the chances of it coming into contact with the scalp, affecting the health of the scalp and hair follicles.
Many people believe that salon hair coloring produces better results than DIY hair coloring because stylists possess professional skills. Stylists can section the hair, carefully apply the hair dye, ensuring even distribution and avoiding contact with the scalp, resulting in a more natural and aesthetically pleasing color. DIY hair coloring is convenient and time-saving, but it also carries relatively higher risks. It is recommended to perform an allergy test before dyeing and pay attention to the amount of dye used and the application method. For professional results and hair protection, it is still advisable to have your hair dyed at a salon. If any skin discomfort occurs, seek medical attention immediately.
