Not to say that I told you so but I told you so. I reported the toxic formaldehyde exposure during the Brazilian Blow-Out service to clients and stylist in my post called Straighteners, Straighteners, and more Straighteners. OSHA has finally issued a warning against Brazilian Blow-Out products. Companies that were investigated listed the formaldehyde as one of its other chemical names or stated that the product was formaldehyde-free, but did have formaldehyde in the formula or did not list formaldehyde in the ingredients at all. Formaldehyde was also not listed in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
OSHA found formaldehyde in the air when stylists used hair smoothing products label Keratin or Brazilian.
