Chemical hair dyes contain an ingredient known as para-phenylenediamine (PPD), a coal tar. This chemical can produce acute allergic reactions and more severely, anaphylactic shock. PPD and other chemicals in hair dye (such as propylene glycol, ammonia, and formaldehyde) all have their own specific dangers and can cause organ toxicity. In fact, France, Germany, and Sweden banned the use of PPD in hair dye.
