I want healthy hair
Phthalates are found in products that most of us come into contact with every day. They are found in personal care products, food and beverage bottles, detergents, pharmaceuticals, vinyl flooring, wall coverings, and even children’s toys. Although it may be difficult to avoid phthalates entirely, it helps to be informed about what they are and what potential risks they pose.
Phthalates are among the most commonly used chemicals in the world. These colorless, odorless, oily liquids are most often used as “plasticizers” to soften plastics that would otherwise crack and break. Phthalates enter the body through ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption.
Phthalates are used as additives in some shampoos. They are also found in mousses, hairsprays, and conditioners. They help lubricate, soften other ingredients, improve spreadability, increase absorbency, and help fragrances last longer. Under current law, manufacturers are not required to list phthalates on product labels. Any ingredient simply listed as “fragrance” in hair care products usually contains phthalates. The FDA has not taken any measures to reduce the use of phthalates in personal care products, despite significant evidence showing potential risks associated with long-term exposure.
In animal testing, certain phthalates have caused malformations and permanent damage to the male reproductive system. These same phthalates are currently sold in hair care products. There are no regulations in place, which is why even the biggest brands on the market use them in some of their products. The only way to avoid exposure to phthalates is to read product labels carefully. When buying hair care products, stick with companies that have committed to keeping their products phthalate-free.
Be on the lookout for the following ingredient names, which indicate that the product contains phthalates:
