Hair dyeing is a way for many people to change their appearance and improve their self-confidence, but not all times are suitable for hair dyeing. If you choose the wrong time, you may cause damage to your hair or body. The following are the hair dyeing taboo times and related data that have been hotly discussed on the Internet in the past 10 days to help you dye your hair scientifically.
1. During the menstrual period
Women’s immunity is low during menstruation, and chemical components in hair dyes may enter the bloodstream through the scalp, increasing the risk of allergies or infections. The following are the statistics of adverse reactions to hair dyeing during menstrual period reported by netizens:

|---|---|
| Itchy scalp | 32% |
| Hair is noticeably damaged | 25% |
| Allergic redness and swelling | 18% |
2. Pregnancy and lactation period
Pregnant women and nursing mothers should avoid hair dyeing. Ammonia, hydrogen peroxide and other ingredients in hair dye may affect fetal development or be passed on through breast milk. A survey on a maternal and infant platform shows:
| crowd | Choose hair dye ratio | The proportion of uncomfortable symptoms |
|---|---|---|
| Early pregnancy (1-3 months) | 5% | 41% |
| Lactation | 8% | 29% |
3. When the scalp is damaged
If your scalp has wounds, eczema, or severe flaking, hair dyeing can aggravate the irritation. Data from the dermatology department of a certain hospital show that among the cases of scalp problems aggravated by hair dyeing:

| heart stent | 6 months |
| cancer chemotherapy | 1 year |
5. Under extreme weather conditions
Hair dyeing in hot or cold weather can affect the results and scalp health:
| weather | Main risks |
|---|---|
| Temperature＞35℃ | Pigment is lost quickly, and scalp sweating causes allergies. |
