Greetings,

Does anyone know of an organic gluten-free hair dye for black hair. My allergist thinks I may be allergic to the black dye that I am using on my hair I have really black hair and a very large white streak! Since I am toooooooo young for white hair I dye the roots about every 2 1/2 to 3 weeks. I am Italian and my hair grows so fast.

HELP!

Greetings,

There is a Sallys about an hour away from here. I will have to check it out. I just found out that Henna is also gluten-free. I have never used it, but am willing to try anything at this point. IS Whole Foods then name of a Store or Product Line?

Thank you so much

DON'T USE HENNA You can not use henna over a regular hair dye, it will actually say this on the box. It will cause your hair to break off or worse. If you want to use henna you will need to let your hair grow out completely and then cut off the dyed part.

Oh no! Thank you for the heads up! I have really long hair and that would be bad if it broke off! I just don't know what I am going to do!

I finally got so frustrated with sores and losing hair that I stopped coloring at all. I still have days when I stand in front of the hair color in the store and look wistfully at all the pretty colors. I tell myself every morning that I like my salt and pepper, that people pay good money for highlights that I have for free, someday I might start to believe it. :D A white streak can be quite dramatic, want to trade for my all over whites? Just kidding of course.

All the natural dyes at Whole Foods and every other natural store I have been to all have wheat. What is up with this. Only the Henna products don't. I think Garnier might be ok. It is not natural though.

You are so funny. I am 33 and teach 6th grade. The white streak may be a bit too dramatic, hehehe.

I will post more information if I find it.

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      I ate two pieces of toast each morning for three weeks prior to testing. The rest of the day I ate whatever. I am going to increase the gluten for four weeks and ask my doc to retest. I did read that false positives are possible, so I think it’s reasonable to retest. But I am very new to this, so not feeling confident.

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Cat M! Were you consuming generous amounts of gluten for a significant period of time (weeks/months) before the blood draw and test results you posted? I ask because you say you would like to be retested after consuming gluten for a few weeks. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge call for the daily consumption of at least...

      Positive TTG antibody and negative EMA antibody

      I recently reviewed a patient with a positive tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody but negative endomysial antibodies (EMA). The patient is asymptomatic, and duodenal biopsies—taken while on a normal gluten-containing diet—were reported as normal. Given the discordant serology and absence of histological changes, I understand that the probability of ...

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      TTG IgA <2 Ttg IgG 3 DGP IgG 4 Total IgA was not performed. My GP thinks I am gluten sensitive and do not have celiac. I would like to consume gluten for a few weeks and retest, or consult a gastroenterologist now. I am symptomatic, which is why we tested. I do have the HLA DQ2. Is it possible this is a false positive? What would cause...

      Is "Shield" skincare products gluten-free?

      @LynnM, when you say, "today, his numbers were high", what numbers do you refer to? Are you speaking of celiac antibody scores? Can you be more specific and can you post the test names, the numbers and the reference ranges for the tests? So, I am understanding you to say that topical exposure to gluten doesn't cause him GI reactions but ingestion of...

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Cat M! Were you consuming generous amounts of gluten for a significant period of time (weeks/months) before the blood draw and test results you posted? I ask because you say you would like to be retested after consuming gluten for a few weeks. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least 2 weeks. But I would go for longer than that to be sure, say 4 weeks. Testing is invalid when people have been gluten free or even skimping on it.

The patient is asymptomatic, and duodenal biopsies—taken while on a normal gluten-containing diet—were reported as normal. Given the discordant serology and absence of histological changes, I understand that the probability of coeliac disease is low. However, I would appreciate your guidance on the following: Is routine follow-up required in such a case? What is the risk of progression to overt coeliac disease in the future? Would HLA DQ2/DQ8 typing be useful here to help guide long-term management or exclude the diagnosis confidently? I would be grateful for your thoughts.
