It's probably pretty common for Dads to overreact like that. Especially with daughters. Maybe he feels like he's lost his little girl and you dying your hair is a sign that your growing up a bit too fast for him... Maybe not. But all the reasons he's giving - cancer and selfishness hehe - they're pretty silly, so maybe there's a deeper underlying reason he feels that way.
Anyway, it's funny around that age, sometimes you have to be the more mature, rational one in the relationship. It sounds like you're doing alright though. They do tend to overreact.

That sounded a bit patronising. I realise you're not twelve, it just seemed that your Dad is acting as if you are.
