Gluten Free Hair Color


swim

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am interested in coloring my own hair. I am looking for gluten free semi-permanent color that takes well on gray hair and does not fade. I have been coloring my hair at a salon for years. But now it is almost 100% gray and growing very fast.

I am taking a vitamin/mineral supplement that may be speeding up my hair growth along with better absorption on the gluten free diet.

Now my hair needs to be colored every four weeks and no later since the contrast is so obvious. And then if I have something special coming up it needs to be colored at the three week point. The roots are pretty obvious at the three week point.

I am a swimmer and wash my hair every day so I need a very gentle non-damaging hair color. The products my salon uses are great and meet all that the above criteria but since it now needs to be done so often it is costing too much and going to the salon so often is driving me crazy. The semi-permanent color at the salon takes very well and doesn't fade.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Lisa

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
