If There’s No Irritation After Coloring Hair, Can I Assume Dye Isn’t Accelerating Hair Loss? – Hair Loss Information by Dr. William Rassman

Hi Doc

I dye my hair after a cut, about every 4 or 5 weeks. If there’s no scalp irritation is it safe to assume an accelerated hair loss isn’t from the dye? Can dye increase hair loss if there’s no scalp reaction that I’m aware of? I noticed the increase about the time I started the dye over a year ago. I started Propecia about 2 months ago.

Thanks

Safe dying should not produce or accelerate genetic hair loss. By safe, I mean that the bleach is not driven into the hair follicle below the skin to cause chemical injury.
