In addition to ensuring the safety of the individual ingredients, hair dyes are assessed to make sure that are not irritating or cause an unusual incidence of allergic reactions. The FDA requires that hair dyes bear a caution statement and appropriate “patch test” instructions for determining whether the product causes skin irritation in the user. It is very important to follow the directions on the label and to only use these products in a safe manner.
