Beard dyes: Risks you shouldn't ignore.

Dyeing your beard will undoubtedly make you look younger, but not all men can do it without experiencing some kind of short- or medium-term complication.

If you have sensitive skin, consult a dermatologist.

Possible risks:

- SKIN IRRITATION: Hair dyes contain chemicals like hydrogen peroxide or para-phenylenediamine (PPD), which can cause irritation, redness, or inflammation on the sensitive skin of your face. If you have sensitive skin or allergies, the risk is higher. Choose beard dyes specifically formulated with fewer harsh chemicals than hair dyes. There are options without ammonia or PPD, or with natural ingredients that are less harsh.

- ALLERGIC REACTIONS: Some people develop allergies to certain ingredients in hair dyes. Apply a small amount to the inside of your elbow and wait 48 hours to see if you experience any reaction.

- DRYNESS AND HAIR DAMAGE: The chemicals in dyes can dry out facial hair, making it brittle or weakening its structure over time. Use beard oils or balms to keep your hair moisturized. Finally, if you notice side effects like irritation or allergies, stop using it and seek medical help if necessary.
