Can hair dye or tattoos increase stroke or blood clot risk?

[Waheymum]

Hey!
Can dying your hair be a risk factor for stroke?

Can getting a tattoo put you at risk of blood clots?

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that there are risks. Why do you ask? Are you thinking about dyeing your hair and getting a tattoo? Or are you experiencing a bit of health anxiety right now?

Nope !
But hair dye can trigger severe allergic reaction so do skin test first !
Tattoos can also trigger immune system responses x

I've often thought about either getting a tattoo or dying my hair. I've had one previous stroke and don't want another.

Perhaps you could try a henna for your hair and a temporary tattoo? Not so permanent! 🌷
