Q: what if you licked hair dye that's all i want to know ty?

: It would depend on the quantity. If you licked your hand which may have contained a stray drop, there should be no problem. If there was a dollop of hair dye and you intentionally licked it, the problems could include mouth/throat irritation/burns, stomach discomfort and even problems with poisoning.
