Haircut Done, Bumps On Cheeks Three Hours Later. Allergic Reaction To Shampoo?

Yesterday I went to get my haircut, and I got it washed and trimmed. About three hours later I went to dinner with my family. As we left the restaurant I noticed bumps all over my cheeks. They weren t there earlier. I m not sure if it is a reaction to the shampoo the stylist used or what. Any ideas on what it is? (I don t have acne .)

Hello,

In view of details two things are possible. Either this is allergy to shampoo or food allergy. You can give a try to oral anti-histaminics.

In most cases this will suffice.

Regards.
