Hand dermatitis in hairdressers is caused by a variety of factors. Important are the sensitizing and irritant capacities of some hair-cosmetic ingredients, unsafe packaging which causes contamination of the hands, work tables and instruments with hazardous chemicals, absence of protection with adequate gloves and ignorance of safe handling of these chemicals. A strategy is proposed, based on improvement of the safety of ingredients and packaging, use of vinyl gloves and introduction of safe hairdressing procedures. Introduction of this strategy in hairdressing salons with 16 cases of moderate to severe contact dermatitis reduced the number of cases of active dermatitis to 3 in 4 months. The value of pre-employment screening is discussed and the necessity of cooperation of centers of occupational dermatology is emphasized.
美发师手部皮炎由多种因素引起。一些头发化妆品成分的致敏和刺激能力、不安全的包装导致手部、工作台和器械被有害化学物质污染、未使用足够的手套进行防护以及对这些化学物质安全处理的无知等都很重要。本文提出了一项策略，该策略基于提高成分和包装的安全性、使用乙烯基手套以及引入安全的美发程序。在有16例中度至重度接触性皮炎的美发沙龙中引入该策略后，4个月内活动性皮炎病例数减少至3例。文中讨论了入职前筛查的价值，并强调了职业皮肤病学中心合作的必要性。
