Feria Extreme Platinum hair dye glutening

I just found out a month ago that I have Celiac disease. I happen to be an incredibly sensitive case. I have removed absolutely everything gluten inside my house including all of my cookware and replaced it all.

I did that as well with everything in my bathroom cupboards. The only thing I didn't think about was my hair dye. I did a quick Google search about Feria extreme platinum hair dye and they say that it is gluten-free on a research that I have looked at.

I can promise you it is not gluten-free. I have a head full of dermatitis herpetiformis, my hands are also breaking out where the dye has touched my skin. I got insanely dizzy within 10 minutes of applying it. And my scalp feels like it's on fire.

My ears are so red and hurt so much. I quickly washed my hair with gluten-free shampoo and then put gluten-free conditioner in. Luckily the pain is starting to subside. I also had a hard time breathing for a while.I can assure you there must be gluten in this product. I encourage everyone to stay away from it if you are sensitive.

Are there any products that others have tried that work without giving them a reaction? I would really like to know from people who happen to be super sensitive as well. Thank you so much for any information you can provide.

Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry to hear that you got DH from your hair dye.

I am also very sensitive. I color my hair at home using henna from Mehandi.com. I personally use the henna for gray hair medium brown kit as it covers gray hair best. Mix the henna with separate acidic powder at night. The next day wash your hair with shampoo only. Then prepare the indigo paste. Mix both henna and indigo together and apply. Leave it in for four hours. Wash out with conditioner only. I wait two full days before using a normal shampoo with conditioner so the henna/indigo really takes. My scalp gets a little itchy from the residue for those two days, and then it dissipates. No allergic/celiac reaction at all.

Thank you for all that fantastic information. I'm definitely going to look that up next time I go to get a dye box. Certainly is extremely helpful.

I forgot to mention that when you mix the henna with the acid powder use filtered water, and the next day when you prepare the indigo powder, add a teaspoon of salt with more filtered water. The salt makes the indigo work better. Then combine both batches.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hey everyone. Thanks again for your suggestions. I wanted to give an update and ask for some follow-up suggestions from you all.  So I did go through all of my food items and stopped eating things that were “gluten free” and switched over to the “certified gluten free” ones (the ones with the g symbol). I also stayed away from restaurants except once and there I ordered something raw vegan and gluten free hoping for the best. I also stayed away from oats and soy and dairy. I've also been increasing my vitamin B complex. I've been doing this for about 12 days and while I know that's not that long, I'm still getting sick. Sometimes having diarrhea. Sometimes getting headaches and having necklaces. Sometimes waking up feeling horrible brain fog. I did go to my GI doc and they did a blood test and found my TtG-IgA was in the negative range (and a lower number than I'd had before). I also had normal levels of CRP. My stool showed no elevation of calprotectin and no pathogens. My GI doc said the symptoms could be related to a gluten exposure or to IBS. I'm keeping a food diary to see if I can narrow down whats going on. I know I have good days and bad days and Im trying to isolate what makes a good day versus a bad day. Generally so far it looks like if it eat something super cautious like raw vegetables that I chopped myself into a salad and almonds, im fine but if I eat something more complex including, say, chicken and rice (even if packaged and certified gluten free or made by me with gluten free ingredients), it may not go so well. I may end up with either a headache, neck tension, brain fog, and/or diarrhea that day or the morning after. Any other thoughts or suggestions? I am planning to start tracking my foods again but I wanted to do it in more detail this time (maybe down to the ingredient level) so are there any common ingredients that celiacs have issues with that you all know of that I should track? I've got dairy, oats, soy, eggs, corn, peas, lentils on my “watch list”. Other things I should add? I'm hoping if I track for another two weeks I can maybe pin down some sensitivities. Appreciate the help and tips. Thank you so much!!

      "My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash." Are you serious? The overwhelming majority of people with confirmed celiac disease do not have the rash. It's called dermatitis herpetiformis. It is found in only about 10-15% of those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.ca/gluten-related-disorders/dermatitis-herpetiformis/ If your GI doc is operating on that piece of misinformation, I would start looking for a new GI doc because I wouldn't trust him/her in general.

      Thank you so much for your informative reply. My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash. I had a histamine response to wheat and milk by scratch test by an allergist. I'm not always symptomatic but the older I get the worse it gets. I've found through trial and error that I can react to all grains. Buckwheat and corn included. I tolerate some rice but I wouldn't want to eat it every day. Potato is pretty good for me but I can't eat it every day either. I compromise with squash. I tolerate it well. The Best I feel is while fasting. When I'm in pain and discomfort it's easy to fast even long term, it helps. The problem I'm having is I'm great with my diet for 3-6 months then I start to cheat again. When I don't get immediate symptoms I get this foolish false security. I react then go back to my diet. Rinse and repeat. I suppose discipline is my real issue. I'm very tired of perusing a diagnosis. The constant gaslighting and dismissal is exhausting. Thanks for your suggestion of the autoimmune protocol. I will give it a try. Perhaps the guidelines will help me to navigate better.   Thanks again.

      This isn't the first potential celiac disease treatment in the pipeline that failed. There have been others...
