I want to use hair dye for my goatee. There is Just for Men, and it stinks (chemical smell). I was wondering if this stuff is safe to use, like for 20 years or so? Has anyone had a bad experience with hair dye other than the expected folks with alergies?

I think the screwed up urban legend was Ronald Reagan. Seems like people used to joke about his hair dye causing his failure to remember things. Maybe that is stuck in my head or something.

I've used hair color for over 30 years, and nothing bad has happened to me, with the exception of this other head resting on my left shoulder....
Just kidding. :o)
I don't know of any studies that define hair dye as bad for you to use. I don't know of any, but that also does not mean it's okay to use as long as I have used it.
Good luck.

Hair dye causing nerve damage?!?! what screwed up urban legend have you been listenign to?
Hair dye has to be approved by the FDA, just like any other product that goes on or in your body. So if it's not on the label , there is not the slightest chance of it happening.

im not a guy but i am a hair dresser and i will tell you that the smell you..smell is ammonia. it could be very strong.. its not bad to use if its not open. if you opened it already and havent used it and let it sit there then DONT USE IT. and the only way you can tell if you having a allergic reaction is that your skin gets irritated and burns. try not to get it on your skin since your coloring it. it will stain you skin for a couple days. hair color is safe to use.. you can color your hair every day and it still would be fine.. it would be dry but nothing else would happen. its only if you bleach your hair. that stuff is very harsh not only to your hair but on your skin.. it actually burns your skin.. trust me i know. but thats what i gte for not wearing golves

Hair coloring is fine, as long as you follow the directions and use it on your hair. I use Just for Men on my hair and the smell doesn't bother me... however my wife doesn't like it.
As long as you keep it out of your eyes and don't drink it, it's fine.

nope its safe... you should follow instructions found in the back of the dye like the time it should stay in your hair.. then you sure youll be safe...

Anything that would burn your eyes is probably not a safe chemical.

My mom hasn't had any problems with her hair color....
Seriously, if you use it right and don't overdo it you should be fine.

It is perfectly safe, just so long as you don't drink it
