    What do I do if I have an allergic reaction to hair dye?
    So I dyed my hair the other night and my head has been itching crazy since then. I do have psoriasis on my scalp but that's not even itching, it's mainly the top, and some bumps have formed there and my scalp is really red. My head is also swelling. You can kind of see it because my forehead is getting bigger. But that's my scalp is just inflamed. I can't concentrate because my head feels to big.
    And I have a small headache. I don't know what I should do. Should I go to the doctor?

    Also I keep having feelings like I'm going to pass out.

    Well, the swelling is gone now and it doesn't itch anymore an I don't have those feelings like I'm going to pass out but my limphnodes (not sure how to spell that) are swollen and my neck hurts. So I think they are fighting off the infection.

    Better safe than sorry, as well as allergic reaction, depending on what you used, you could have also suffered a chemical burn. If that is the case you may need antibiotics.
    I personally would get it looked at by a doctor.

    It's pretty much all fine now.
