Bleach at hairdressers?
Posted Thu 28 Apr 2022 02.40 by BoiWonder
I’ve always wanted to bleach my hair, but I’ve had scalp psoriasis for over a decade. I’ve tried box dyes before and haven’t had a reaction or a flare up from using them, but I know if I wanted to bleach my hair I’d rather a professional do it.
Would they even do it though? I’ve been extremely lucky so far that none of the hairdressers I’ve seen have made comments about my psoriasis (at least to my face), but I’d like to know if other people have any experience getting your hair bleached/dyed at the hairdressers with psoriasis.
Thank you! <3

I've never bleached my hair, but despite the concern from the hairdresser and a stinging sensation, hair dye actually improves my psoriasis briefly. I think your biggest hurdle will be getting a hairdresser who doesn't know you to do it. I know mine would, but she knows me and my psoriasis well. Could you start with a huge amount of highlights and work up to it?!
