My mother has been dying her hair dark for decades and she is cancer free.
I read a while ago that licking the underside of the foil cover of your yogurt cup will give you cancer.
Sometimes I think the safest thing would be to lock myself in my room but were's the fun in that.
ps wont trust the FDA as far as I could throw them. Aspartame has been proven to be the cause of a tone of serious ailments but it is still on the market

They've improved hair dyes significantly in recent times so they have much fewer harsh chemicals than they used to have, so if you dye it now I think you are ok. The problem is if you used hair dyes a lot before the 1980's.
I know there was talk that dark hair dye could've been a factor in the death of former first lady Jackie Onassis. She died of Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and dyed her hair for years and years. But who knows for sure, she was also a smoker.

Everything gives you cancer nowadays, or at least they say so. I wouldn't worry about it. If it really did the FDA wouldn't let it out on the market.
