Liquid Keratin Hair Straightening Treatments Tested Formaldehyde Free

April 29, 2011 - PRLog -- There has been much talk in the media lately regarding the safety of keratin-based salon hair straightening treatments. Specifically, the controversy has centered on the fact that Formaldehyde (a suspected carcinogen) was found in many of the treatments' formulas as well as in the air after the treatment had been performed. Although many of these companies claim their products are "Formaldehyde free" and argue that they are perfectly safe to use, independent tests have shown that some of these formulas contain levels of formaldehyde as high as 8%. Many salons have even pulled the treatments after workers complained of eye irritation, respiratory discomfort and other side effects.

The attention given to salon treatments has now spilled over to at-home treatments and consumers are paying closer attention to the ingredients of products they are using. We're proud to announce that Liquid Keratin - the only keratin-based hair straightening treatment we carry - was recently tested for Formaldehyde, Methylene Glycol and Acetaldehyde by the prominent Exova laboratory. Liquid Keratin 30 Day Treatment and Liquid Keratin BOLD were both tested, and all test results indicated that none of these toxic substances were detected in the formulas.
