For many women, using hair dye is just one of the many personal grooming practices they consider a necessary part of looking good. But Dr. Marianne Marchese is breaking the bad news. She states that there is a direct correlation between black hair dyes and other darker hair dyes and many cancers. This doesn't mean that hair dyes cause cancer. It does mean there is a link. Using darker hair dyes should be carefully reconsidered.

Dr. Marchese:
Yes, studies show that hair dyes, especially black hair dyes or the darker hair dyes, are directly correlated with bladder cancer, leukemia, brain cancer, and a slight risk with ovarian cancer.
