What Causes Swollen Glands Behind The Neck With Scalp Itching?

I have been going to a salon and had my hair dyed and had severe itching and my hairdresser has changed brands several times and I ve tried brands without the harmful ingredients I ve read that are in dark colors and reacted to them as well. Recently my glands in the back of my neck have swelled and this past week they swelled again after my hair was dyed and are tender and not receeding as they had done the last few times!!

Hello,
It could be from the hair products but swollen glands indicate infection or something more serious like a problem in the immune system. It is important for you to see a doctor when the glands are swollen so that they can decide what testing needs to be done to determine the cause.
