Identify the original culprit, namely the brand or the chemical constituents of the dye. Rinse your face in cold tap water and apply any over-the-counter cream for burns and close with a sterile dressing. Check the date of manufacture and expiry of the chemical. Avoid using unbranded hair dyes, to cut on the cost. Aloe vera gel is an effective remedy for burns. Vitamin E ointment also proves beneficial. Home remedies are determined by the degree of the burn.
