Causes of dandruff and itching

 

It could be caused by the chemicals in hair color.

 
It is said that using chemical dyes can destroy the scalp's barrier function. This can lead to causes of allergic dermatitis and other skin issues. If left unchecked and used continuously, it can result not only in dandruff and itching but also in hair loss.

What is chemical sensitivity?

 
Chemical sensitivity (also known as chemical intolerance) refers to a condition in which an individual reacts excessively to certain chemicals, resulting in various health issues. These chemicals are commonly found in everyday items such as household detergents, cosmetics, medications, and even hair dyes used in beauty salons. The symptoms of chemical sensitivity can range from mild to severe.
 

Main symptoms

 

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Itchy or dry eyes

• Throat discomfort

• Difficulty breathing or asthma-like symptoms

• Itchy skin or eczema

• Fatigue or lethargy

 
 
These symptoms are caused when chemicals are absorbed into the body or come into contact with the skin. In particular, products containing chemical dyes, fragrances, and preservatives are often responsible for triggering these reactions.
 

Here are the benefits of using henna for gray hair coloring

 
For those with chemical sensitivity or sensitive skin, henna is an ideal choice. Henna is a natural plant-based dye that contains no synthetic chemicals, making it safe for those with sensitivities to use in most cases. Additionally, henna is gentle on the hair and allows you to color your hair while maintaining its health.
 
At our salon, we offer henna-based gray hair coloring, using only completely natural ingredients to ensure safety for those with chemical sensitivities. Henna coloring not only colors the hair effectively but also places minimal strain on the scalp, helping to maintain healthy, beautiful hair.
 

Here are some tips to avoid chemical sensitivities

 

1. Use Natural and Organic Products: Choose products that are free from harmful chemicals like synthetic fragrances, preservatives, and dyes. Look for certified organic products to ensure they are made with safe ingredients.
2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals in Hair Care: Opt for shampoos, conditioners, and hair color treatments that are free from chemical dyes, sulfates, and parabens. Henna-based hair dye is a great alternative to chemical hair dyes.
3. Check Product Labels: Always check the ingredients list before purchasing any personal care products. Avoid products that contain synthetic fragrances, parabens, phthalates, and other harsh chemicals that can trigger sensitivities.
4. Test New Products First: Before using any new product, do a patch test on a small area of skin to ensure you don’t have an allergic reaction or sensitivity.
5. Use Fragrance-Free Products: Many personal care products contain artificial fragrances that can cause irritation or allergic reactions. Opt for fragrance-free versions to reduce the risk.
6. Keep Your Home Clean and Ventilated: Regularly clean your home and ensure proper ventilation, especially if you use any cleaning products that may contain chemicals. This helps reduce exposure to airborne chemicals.
7. Consult a Dermatologist: If you experience symptoms of chemical sensitivity, such as skin irritation or respiratory issues, consult a dermatologist or allergist to discuss safe alternatives and treatments.

 
At our salon, we provide the most suitable treatments tailored to each customer's health condition. If you are concerned about chemical sensitivity, please feel free to consult with us.
 

What is allergic dermatitis?

 
 
Allergic dermatitis (allergic skin condition) is a condition caused by an immune reaction to allergens (substances that trigger allergies), resulting in inflammation and itching of the skin. Allergic dermatitis can occur in response to various allergens, such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and food, but it is also commonly triggered by ingredients in cosmetics and hair dye products.
 

Main symptoms

Itching
Rashes or eczema
Redness or swelling
Dry skin
Cracks
Blisters or scabs
 
These symptoms occur when the immune system reacts excessively to allergens, causing inflammation on the skin. Chemical dyes, fragrances, and preservatives used in hair dyeing can be causes, and they are particularly common among people with sensitive skin or allergic tendencies.
