can I smoke a cigarette while dying my hair?

Not Medical Advice: While we found no reports of an accident relating to smoking while coloring the hair. You still need to be more cautious, as hair dyes contain chemicals that are flammable.

The danger could be while lighting up a cigarette, as it can accidentally reach the strands atop of your head.

As per Daily Mail, hair dyes could also react with smoke and fumes and form highly poisonous chemicals called N-nitrosamines, known to cause cancer.
