I don't think you'd have to, I'd Suggest talking to your Doctor?

Angeless: Yes dear you should do a Patch test every time you dye. A person can have an allergic reaction at any time. Just like with medications. Been there done that. Oh yes! That's from a licensed person who has done hair many years. Good Luck! Steve

Hi, my name is Shivani and I work for Clairol nice 'n easy, hopefully I will be able to answer your question!
It is very important to do a sensitivity (allergy) test each time you dye your hair, even if it is the same brand you always use, as you could develop a sensitivity to the product at any time. This is rare, but it could happen.
We recommend that you carry out the test 48 hours before co louring your hair. If you experience any reaction to the test, it wouldn't be advised that you carry on to dye your hair with that particular product.
Full instructions will be included with your hair dye, detailing exactly how to carry out the sensitivity test.
At the same time as doing the sensitivity test, you should also carry out a strand test, which will determine the optimum development time and result you will get. As you have co loured your hair before, we would suggest you do a strand test from the mid-lengths and ends, as well as your roots. Hope this helps!
Shivani

Permanent hair dye is the only way to have even colors throughout the whole head of hair, and the only way to disguise white or gray hair strands.
