How Safe Are Your Hair Care Products?
When taking a shower or visiting hair salons, it is doubtful you ever
consider the question, "How is this [shampoo, hair dye, styling
gel] affecting my health? Perhaps more people should pay attention to
the products they are using on their hair on a daily basis, as some contain
potentially dangerous chemicals.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is a forming agent and one of the most commonly
used chemicals found in hair care products. There are literally hundreds
of scientific articles highlighting its toxicity. It readily penetrates
the dermis. The chemical properties of SLS are such that it is used in
many cleaning agents: car wash soaps, garage floor cleaners, engine degreasers
and 90% of all foam-producing products. Health hazards caused by SLS
include tissue damage that could result in liver, brain, heart and lung
damage in the long-term; eye damage; degradation of the immune system;
severe skin irritation; hair loss and eczema. When absorbed through the
skin Sodium Lauryl Sulfate maintains residual levels in the heart, liver,
lungs and brain. Sodium Lauryl is an animal teratogen (causes birth defects
or malformations)
MIT (methylisothiazolinone)
While the purpose of MIT is to prevent bacteria from developing, researchers
found that contact with it restricted growth of axons and dendrites of
immature nerves found in rat brain cells. The rat studies also showed
that chronic exposure to this chemical led to a malfunction in the way
neurons communicate with one another. One researcher explained that direct
exposure to high concentrations of MIT would irritate the skin because
it can damage skin cells.
MIT (methylisothiazolinone) is found in antimicrobial soaps, hand soaps,
dish soaps and a surprising number of personal care products, including
shampoo and other hair care products. People buy these hair care products
thinking they're protecting themselves from infectious microbes. They
think it makes them immune to viruses and bacteria that might be found
in their bathrooms or kitchens, and, thus, they believe in the mythology
of using antimicrobial soaps to create a sterile environment in their
own homes. (read

Nitrosamines
Hair care products containing as ingredients amines or amino derivatives,
particularly di- or triethanolamine, may form nitrosamines if they also
contain an ingredient which acts as a nitrosating agent as, for example,
2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol (Bronopol, Onyxide 500), 5-bromo-5-nitro-1,3-dioxane
(Bronidox C) or tris(hydroxymethyl)nitromethane (Tris Nitro), or if they
are contaminated with a nitrosating agent, e.g., sodium nitrite. Amines
and their derivatives are mostly present in creams, cream lotions, hair
shampoos and cream hair conditioners. The nitrosation may occur during
manufacture or during product storage.
Many nitrosamines have been determined to cause cancer in laboratory
animals. They have also been shown to penetrate the skin. Nitrosamines
can lead to developmental and reproductive toxicity, allergies, immunotoxicity
and endocrine disruption. Nitrosamine contamination became an issue in
early 1977. In a study of 29 cosmetic creams and lotions, N-Nitrosodiethanolamine
(NDELA) was determined in 27.
Hair Dyes
Long-term use of hair dye promotes lymphatic cancer, says new research
from Yale University. The finding isn't surprising: the toxic ingredients
used in hair dyes have long been known to be highly carcinogenic. It's
yet another example of the health dangers of personal care products like
deodorant, perfume, shampoo and soap, all of which contain toxic ingredients
that are inevitably absorbed through the skin and enter the bloodstream.
Yale researchers have found that lifetime users of hair coloring products
have an increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), a
cancer that attacks the lymphatic system, part of the body's immune system.
This is the first study to examine the impact of hair dye use with time
period of use as a key factor. Source: Science

Chlorine and Hair
"One out of every two clients coming into the salon has chlorine
damage to their hair," says Vancouver's top hairdresser Derek London. "It's
almost the same as oxidation from peroxide burning, except chlorine adds
density to the hair. You see a lot of breakage and splitting. The chlorine
makes hair shiny like fiberglass. Hair tangles when it's shampooed and
becomes difficult to comb."

hairstylist and I am about to open my own salon and I am so looking

It's great to actually feel the difference in my hair. It feels like
