Interesting question. I can easily answer the second question - there is no risk to your hair dresser. Any residual urushiol oil should have been washed out or oxidized or bonded by now. Now for the first. I would think that provided that you do not have open sores that there shouldn't be too much of an issue. If you do have open sores, you run the risk of infection or having chemicals infiltrate the skin. You'll have to let us know how it turned out :-)
