A member asked:
Is it safe to colour hair using foils if allergic to ppd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Black dye: PPD is used to dye the hair black. If you are allergic to PPD , foils would not prevent or worsen the reaction. The only thing to do is avoidance. Dye your hair red if you must but don't use black.
