Can children get their hair coloured?

Question

I'd like to lighten my 8 year old daughters hair. Is it safe for children to get their hair coloured?

*Thanks all of you* :)

*For those asking why I'd want to... I just wanted to lighten it slightly because she has medium to light brown hair with natural golden pigment that I wanted to bring out more.. so the one who posted about highlights, I think that's what I wanted. Thanks!*

Answer 1

:S why do that?, i guess its safe though

Answer 2

the only thing that isn't right is an 8 year old with a root line showing.I would use lemon juice and water spray it on her hair and go out in the sunlight fora bit that will lighten it naturally.

Answer 3

Yes it's safe, however with little girls there hormones change so rapidly that you cannot guarantee the results until after they start to menstruate. I will Say from experience that it usually turns out just fine!

Answer 4

No its not safe to get there hair colored cuase there hair is not stron enough for it yet. If you do you would have to take her to a professional to get it done every 2 weeks so her hair will not get broken off

Answer 5

remember that children have Virgin hair and you can actually damage the growth of their hair by coloring it. you can also dry it out and hurt the scalp of a child. if you want to color a childs hair then high light it first. see if that is what you want to do.
