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 found this article which may be helpful:

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.

      It is addictive. The dopamine hit I get from a sandwich after being gluten free for a while is insane and I immediately crave more. Maybe if I think of it more like an addiction I'll be able to beat it in the future.

      Undiagnosed Celiac Disease was your root cause.  As you heal and adress nutritional deficiencies you'll see lifetime symptoms disapear, some you don't even realize you have.     Until 1951 no one knew the cause.  Around 1900 it was also called "Infantilism", you outgrew it or died.  Dr Hass around 1920 was the first to come up with a treatment with close to 100% survival.  At 63 I followed his diet for a while and it helped me past the early stage of recovery.  Even then it was only considered a childhood disease, eventually the child outgrew it.  Once outgrown the child was reintroduced to wheat.  After that any symptoms that arose were attributed to whatever was popular, gall bladder, allergy, endometriosis, etc.  Often the final diagnosis is "we do not know the cause, it is just normal for some people, but we have medications that will treat your symptoms."   I was bloated, and always colicky.  When my son was born in 1976, my mother commented "You got what you gave."  I pointed out to my wife that he looked like a Biafra baby from the Biafra famine in 1970.  One of the first successful sales of modern wheat was to replace the rice the Biafran Aid Society supplied.  After searching the state where we lived (pop. 6 million) we found the one child gastroenterologist familiar with Celiac.  He only had 13 other children dianosed with the disease under his care and after several endoscopies my son was diagnosed, put on GFD and immediately thrived.  The doctor also suggested my wife and I also do gluten free.  We declined, not having any gastro problems.  That remains my only regret in my life. THE VALUE OF THE BANANA IN THE TREATMENT OF CELIAC DISEASE  Dr Hass' 1924 puplication with diet. There are over 300 symptoms related to celiac disease I believe that if you have the genes, you have Celiac Disease, but your immune system is strong enough to keep it subdued, or your symptoms are misdiagnosed as something not wheat.  Until something happens to weaken the immune system, and symptoms, often misdiagnosed and wrongly treated, until eventually you die, never knowing or you get lucky and end up eating gluten free.  To me it explains the late onset of acute symptoms, many are "just normal for you". Ever wonder why people get so angry if you suggest they may have Celiac Disease.  Wheat is a cultural and economic staple of our lives.  And it is addictive, it numbs our body.  Suddenly, gluten free, all the other irritants are no longer suppressed.

      I don't think we can say that just one thing, whether vitamin D deficiency or emotional trauma, or a viral infection, or what ever is always what triggers the onset of celiac disease. We do know there is a genetic component to it and there is increasing evidence that factors creating gut dysbiosis (such as overuse of antibiotics and preservatives and environmental toxins) are major players. Hybridizing of heirloom wheat strains to increase the gluten content by multiples may also be a factor.

      Thanks for the follow-up correction. Yes, so not 10x normal and the biopsy is therefore totally appropriate to rule out a false positive or the unlikely but still possible situation of the elevated lab test number being caused by something besides celiac disease.

      Thanks. I believe I can trace my gluten and milk allergies to specific traumas in my life. I've had some quite severe traumas over my lifetime. Mostly in my history I was so out of sorts surviving that diagnosing gluten sensitivity/allergy/celiac was just not on the table for such a survival mode existence. Vitamin D makes sense too. Now I take very good care of myself, I have a rock solid stability and I do take 1,500 IU of D daily. It's more obvious to me now what's causing problems and so most of the time I only eat protein and vegetables. I cheat sometimes. I end up paying for it though.
