Answer 1

no no no no

Answer 2

I would say that many chemical products can damage your hair including a dye.
Of the common cosmetic procedures, permanent waving, bleaching and dyeing all damage the hair to some extent. Permanent waving, by its nature, disrupts the structure of the hair: indeed, it has to do so for the perm to be successful. In order to change the shape of the hair, permanent waving agents first break the disulphide bonds that give the hair shaft its structure. The hair is then put into its new shape and 'neutralised'. Neutralisation is the name given to the re-forming of the chemical bonds in their new positions, a process that fixes the hair permanently into its new shape. The secrets of satisfactory perming lie in the manufacturer's formulation of the product and the stylist's expertise in applying the neutralising lotion after just the right length of time, so that the perm is fixed but the hair is damaged as little as possible. Permed hair should always look beautiful in spite of this deliberate 'damage'.

Bleaching and dyeing change hair structure too, because the dyes and the bleaches used have to penetrate the cuticle and get into the cortex where they have their effect. Some degree of chemical damage is unavoidable.

Cosmetic procedures do not damage the hair follicle within the scalp, and so do not cause hair loss. Only a serious chemical burn to the skin of the scalp that destroys the follicle cells can do so. Burns like this can follow indiscriminate over-use of permanent waving or relaxing solutions, and therefore these solutions must be handled carefully at all times.

So for your teen I would recommend to stick with semi-permanent color. :)

Good luck

Answer 3

i've got dyed my hair as quickly as. it rather is definitely a medium brown with reddish highlights, yet I died it dark brown with some caramel highlights. I dyed it over 3 months in the past, so the highlights are starting to be out, even nevertheless it rather is purely hair.

Answer 4

Well. Yes and No actually. No because they are too young. the chemicals are really damaging. I'm 16 and my hair got really damaged from a perm 6 months ago and it is still damaged (thing Panteen Pro-V commercials). Yes because its good at this age to experience to find your on individual self. I guess it's also an expression of individuality.

Answer 5

There's nothing wrong with young teens dying their hair. It's a way of trying out new looks which they may feel more confident and comfortable with.

Answer 6

Well, Maybe....But for things so forth being to attention seeking, like bright red,pink,blue, oh uh uh. Im 18 now, trust me im a wild child, but I always stuck to natural highlights/lowlight type of things. Personally less is more. And natural colors, AWESOME. But if your child wants wild 'omg look at that!' kind of color, I dont think its appropriate....I know my child isnt gon do it... Im about to have a baby april 17..I know I want the natural in the family no matter how wild we are...

Answer 7

If I had a daughter, I wouldn't let her begin coloring her hair until she was at least 16. I wouldn't let my son do it at all.

On the other hand, I wouldn't look down on mothers who let their children begin earlier. It just depends on how conservative the parent is, and how much they allow the child to be consumed with his or her appearance.

Answer 8

i think it is fine. it allows them to express creatively who they are. my little sister just died her hair brown and she is 14. if it is her first time I would recommend going to a professional to get the look she really wants. if you are not comfortable with her changing her hair color you coluld always go for highlights which are a more subtle change.

Answer 9

YES!I am a teen and everybody says I look great with highlights.

Answer 10

I put permanent red streaks in my hair..fire engine red. I'm thirteen..I've done purple but not permanent. My mom was a little wary..but..then she thought..hey, she could be doing things even worse!

Answer 11

i dyed my hair when i was 12, but it wasn't permanent, it was semi- permanent. semi's are okay for that age, but i don't think that it is smart to damage your hair with a permanent dye that early.
