hair dye allergy.... im going crazy!?

[tazzyeber]

i have naturally dark brown hair, i stupidly decided to go blonde a few months back, anyway im back to brunette now... every couple of moths i have to put a brown on it to stop the bleach coming through, ive always been slightly allergic, i get an itchy scalp. but this time my eyes are affected too... they are red and sore.

whats the best way to treat this?

and what can i do in the future when i need to put brown on it again?

If it's not serious, some allergy eye drops will probably help your eyes. Otherwise, see a doctor.

To dye it brown in the future, you might try a natural dye like Light Mountain ( http://www.light-mountain-hair-color.com/ ). I used their red dye over the summer on my naturally dark blond hair, and loved the results, and it is "permanent," so you won't have to worry about it washing out or fading as much. (Of course, do a strand test first to make sure there's nothing already on your hair that will make it turn funny colors or anything.)

you need to go to the doctor
you should ALWAYS do a test strip before dying
