The FDA says that paraphenylenediamine can be applied to the hair but not to
the
scalp. They don't describe how the one can be achieved without the other. PAP
can cause severe allergic dermatitis and is a strong cross sensitizer. There
appears to be an increase in bladder cancer in woman who dye their hair black.

Way back when I was experimenting with developers, trying to find one
that would convert my poorly seen images into works of art, I decided to
use paraphenylenediamine. At the time it was believed to be
carcinogenic, so I could not get it. But it was used in hair dye for
women. Some studies confirm it is carcinogenic; some do not.
Unsafe for me to get a little on my fingers, but ok for women to soak
their heads with it.
Later, I realized that changes in processing were unlikely to correct
for poorly seen images.
