I bleach my facial hair even though I hardly had any any moustache my whole face went literally black and it was sooo sore and itchy and that whole entire day my salon lady gave me aloe vera gel. I kept washing my face with very cold water and put Aloe Vera gel literally every time the gel dried I put it on again and again and by night time it was all ok again it was so bad I didn’t think it would get better but seriously aloe Vera gel helped me soooo sooo much it does wonders!!!!

Hi Vanessa. Allergies like this can suddenly start up even after years of exposure to the dye. Sometimes it can be a “bad” batch of the same due that you have used for so long. However, it is best to avoid it at this point especially since you are using medication. Yes, “milder” dying agents are often less of an irritant but unfortunately do not have the same long lasting effect. If you are uncertain about a possible reaction, then try a small amount on your forearm and wait to see if there is any reaction. If it is all clear then you can attempt to use it on your scalp. But first let the inflammation on the scalp subside before you dye your hair or you could just worsen the condition.

We will not allow any person to post their email address as it is only a matter of time until they contact us and ask us to remove it due to spammers targeting them. Additional work on our side. Instead, I would advise users to use social media sites. Place your social media username in the Name section of the comment box and NOT within the post comment. If Diane is interested, she can always advertise on the site.

Hi Diane

Sorry if I misunderstood your query. In a day we delete scores of comments by advertisers attempting to market their products in these comment boxes. We do not recommend any alternatives. Certain advertisers do market their products in the Google Ads boxes above but this is not in our control. Advertisers in those instances deal directly with the Google Adwords campaign.

I am unsure as to what you are seeking – as said, if it is advertising, contact the admin staff or preferably advertise via Google Adwords and opt to market on this site. If you are asking me to discuss alternatives, well, that is against our guidelines because we cannot promote any alternative products. Unless the manufacturer or distributors of this product intends on marketing on this platform, we cannot say much. I am unsure where you come in with your association with this US product.

Please do consider the fact that we are here to guide readers, not serves as a medical consultation, make a diagnosis or prescribe any treatment. Ultimately if readers are unhappy, they can simply close their browser. If advertisers or product manufacturers want to advertise they can do so with Google Adwords. Remember that the ads seen in each country varies based on your geographical location – this is not in our hands but part of the Google Adwords program.

Irrespective of how you feel about our “guidelines” or how previous members of the Health Hype team responded to previous comments, our editorial guidelines have always been in place and I follow them as far as possible. If readers are frustrated, they can voice their opinion and we will direct them accordingly – this is a free service intended to help readers but at times we end up being abused. It is this type of behavior that prompts the editors to consider closing these comment boxes. Remember the internet is a free medium – if you wish to share you opinion on it, you are entitled to do so on your own website or blog.

I think you have miss-understood. I am not here to advertise or sell a product.

I understand your “guidelines” but I seem to want to challenge them in frustration to the constant queries here.

So the fact that I am in AUS, makes no difference to me or others with a similar problem. Its a world wide concern. I have been contacted by at-least 6 people from this site, a lady from South Africa to just point out the audience to you as well….

Again I have told my story here.
But lets face it, we need alternative products….we don’t need to be told we are having a allergic reaction…..when your face, head swells, weeps, itches, sheds skin, blisters after hair coloring…..we know we are….

In fact the product I do purchase is from the USA….yes we can purchase from any country &
Delivered all the way here to Australia

Diane…..
