AB  - BACKGROUND: Hairdressers are occupationally exposed to many allergenic and 
      irritating substances. Additionally, hairdressing apprentices are exposed to the 
      same allergens as professional hairdressers, due to the fact that vocational 
      training starts in the beginning of the education. This study was undertaken to 
      investigate early occurrence of sensitization to occupational allergens in 
      hairdressing apprentices before the onset of the vocational training. MATERIAL 
      AND METHODS: Three hundred and seven hairdressing apprentices were assessed using 
      a questionnaire and skin prick tests (SPTs) to common and occupational allergens. 
      The level of total and serum specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) to occupational 
      allergens was evaluated and spirometry was performed. RESULTS: At least one skin 
      and/or respiratory and/or conjunctival symptom was reported by 29.9% of subjects. 
      Among subjects with at least one symptom, 28.2% of them were atopic whereas among 
      43.4% of them total IgE level was elevated. Atopy was found in 20% cases. In the 
      case of one apprentice, positive SPT for paraphenylenediamine was found. Nearly 
      33% of apprentices had elevated total IgE level and 5 of them had specific IgE 
      for occupational allergens. CONCLUSIONS: The study revealed that hairdressing 
      apprentices might be sensitized to occupational allergens even before the 
      beginning of vocational training, due to prior non-professional exposure to 
      hairdressing agents. Furthermore, many of them report skin, respiratory and 
      conjunctival symptoms, often connected with chronic disease diagnosis. Thus, 
      candidates for hairdressers should be examined thoroughly before the start of the 
      education and tests for allergy to hairdressing substances are indicated. Med Pr
