    Allergy to all hair dyes
    I am terribly allergic to all types of hair dyes including henna. Is there anything that I could use that is hypo allergenic

    Are you trying to make your hair lighter or streaked?
    If so you can try a mixture of chamomile (from health food store) and 1/4 cup of lemon juice to 3/4 cup of water, put it in a spray bottle and spritz it on your hair - but NOT on your scalp.

    You could try Sun In too but I am not sure of the ingredients

    Some permanent hair dyes contain an ingredient called para-phenylenediamine (PPD) which can cause allergies. Other ingredients in hair dyes that can cause allergies are called 6-hydroxyindole, Isatin and p-Methylaminophenol. Try using a peroxide free or PPD free hair dye. Make sure you look at the ingredients and do a patch test before dyeing your hair.
