the problem is if you tell anyone the truth about this they will just laugh in your face and say I'm crazy...that is the real problem !! I've tried telling people on many occasions but instead of checking it out they say it's ridiculous and that the gov. would never let this happen. Why is cancer so prolific in this world ??

The chemicals are literalley killing us.

In the western world products a sacred. Human life has no worth compared to products. Don't mess with ingredients or your ass is on the line. The producers of BDP and other hazards are not pleased with this kind of report. The federal government is a fake. Hollow women and men paid by the industry to act in their interest and sponsored by consumers.

I thought they wanted to smell like Raid! Lol

It is more complicated than that. Fragrance components, especially natural ones, say like Rose essential oil, contains various chemicals and is not a single component. That means a fragrance made of dozens of natural essential oils might have hundreds, if not thousands of chemicals. This means that not only the fragrance industry will have to share it's secret, put will have to make gigantic labels. The only way around this is to have a specialist inspect and approve components instead of a list

@mosemo91 I did say 'safer' not safe. There are some safer products, but doing what we can do to lessen your contact is at least doing something in the right direction.

@WellnessMom well mom, There aren't any safe bleaching products... So no, It's not a possibility

[WellnessMom]

@mosemo91 It's a possiblity that she uses one of the safer hair colorings on the market today??

[mosemo91]

this woman is talking about health? I dont know how healthy it is to bleach your hair, not that this isn't an important issue, but she should at least look the part

Have you ever wondered why some women smell like "RAID". There's a good reason for that. They use the same ingredients! There's a fine line between perfume and pesticide. Go out and smell a field that's just been sprayed; then, be aware of the distinct "fragrance" of many of the women walking by...just another of the hundreds of frauds perpetrated by the evil corporations! Is it any wonder there's so many cancers?
