Hair dye can be very dangerous for your health, according to a recent British study!
Hair color was paired with smoking as a risk factor for progressive liver disease – Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC). It is an early form of cirrhosis that leads to irreversible liver damage.
The new study was conducted in Manchester and Newcastle and it involved 4600 people.
Ir was discovered that hair dye increases the risk by 37%.
The respondents were not asked how often they dyed their hair, so the researchers could not determine which component of the hair dye might have triggered the condition.
However, past evidence has revealed a link between PBC and octynoic acid, a chemical found in hair dye.
The study is published in the British Medical Journals’ Gut.
