I guess, it's good to know the risks, and if they scare you then don't use them. I wonder what other things like hair spray get on the cancer scale? You breath that more than hair dye...

Yes its true...if it can cause cancer (even if its unlikely) they must place somewhere that it can cause cancer. I think its a bit funny...

According to the health nerds, everything causes cancer. In fact, the computer probably causes cancer too.

Truth is cancer is natural...we all will get it some point in time but it may not be deadly. In fact, we could have a small lump and never notice it and have it go away because our body has gotten rid of it. Cancer is simply when a bad cell is made and reproduces quicker than the other cells can kill it off. Sometimes they manage to kill it off (sometimes it goes away and sometimes it doesn't), and sometimes the "cancer" cell is growing so rapidly that it can't be stopped.

I don't believe anything causes cancer, but stuff can provoke it. I think as long as you take care of your body the best you can then you should be fine.

ah I love bio

Nonono, the computer shouldn't just give you cancer, but if you have a CRT monitor, now that'll give you cancer.

thanks...glad to know I will get cancer lol

I think...

I just dont see the reasons behind it...

It like they want us unhealthy, kinda freaky....

Im still gonna try that dye I linked that has no bad effects, Since I was planning on dyeing it purple anyways...

Yeah CRT monitors are very bad actually...LCD is where its at.

Yeah, California is a state of total nuts. And there are infact buildings with cancer warning on them. A local fast food place says right outside the drive thru window something about how parts of the building may cause cancer from prolonged exposer. Its really something.

I mean no one wants cancer of course, but you cannot avoid all risk factors. Such things like putting plastic in the microwave, smelling artificial butter fumes, and putting metal in the freezer are supposed to cause cancer to...but really, has anyone ever gotten cancer from it?
Also a lot of shampoos, hairsprays, makeups, perfumes, you name it are risk factors as well. It's really ridiculous. If a person takes it too seriously they wouldn't be able to live. Avoid the stuff that you know will put you at a high risk, like smoking and snorting asbestos.

My friend's grandpa was a camera man and he was hired to film the bomb tests in Utah back in the day. He got some strange form of cancer that you can only have if you come in contact with nuclear waste. Nice huh.

I think this is pure scare mongering. I'd also like to point out that you're not ingesting manic panic, it's just sitting on your hair and scalp for 30 minutes.

I would say it's a good thing that Manic Panic has been safety tested. Better that than using a brand that hasn't been tested at all.

if the site was correct i would be really really ill
it tells me that just about all the products that i use on a regular basis causes cancer...

something to look towards then

I'd have a huge tumor...I tend to leave the dye on for at least three hours each time
