Work-related contact dermatitis is a common problem among hairdressers due to frequent contact with water and the chemicals in hairdressing products.
Contact dermatitis can be an unsightly / unpleasant and painful condition which could even result in your hairdresser having to change career.
If you see your hairdresser wearing gloves, they are protecting their hands so they can keep doing what they do best.
