We recruited the graduates of the Department of Hairdressing from two professional schools for health evaluation. One hundred and seven current hairdressers completed the study, which included a questionnaire interview, skin and physical examination, and patch testing. The results of skin examination and patch test showed that stylists had high prevalence of scissors induced wounds or scars (81%) over the web between the index and middle fingers of the non-dominant hand. The hairdressers also had a high prevalence of hand dermatitis (72%). Occurrence of hand dermatitis is highly correlated with the frequency of shampooing. With the above findings, we recommend (1) using dull-tip scissors for hair cutting to prevent scissors-induced trauma: (2) wearing gloves for shampooing to prevent irritant contact dermatitis and potential cross-infection; and (3) including the education for prevention of scissors cuts in the hairdresser's training programs. |
