Beauty is a pastime most women share, but sometimes it can be fatally dangerous if we are not safe. Atasha Graham, a 34-year-old Jamaican-born housewife who lived inUK, died after suffering a major allergic reaction triggered by glue from her hair extensions.
After a night out on the town with her boyfriend, Graham collapsed, stopped breathing and could not regain consciousness. She was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead. Doctors surmised the hair glue or latex weave was the cause of her death after an autopsy revealed nothing was wrong with her organs and no toxins were present in her bloodstream. Graham’s is sadly not the first case of this kind & Home office pathologist Dr. Michael Heath says death by hair extensions occurs more than you think:
“I’ve seen cases where people using solvent to apply hair extensions has actually caused anaphylactic shock. There are about 10 to 20 deaths a year in this country, many more in America. I have seen four in the last three months.”
The reality of 10-20 deaths by hair glue or extensions a year is painfully frightening. We extend our deepest sympathies to the Graham family and hope that everyone out there continues to be safe when it comes to what goes in and out of the body
The reality of 10-20 deaths by hair glue or extensions a year is painfully frightening. I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the Graham family and hope that everyone out there continues to be safe when it comes to what goes in and out of the body.
