Breaking: Hair Care and Kidney Failure – CRAIN’S COMMENTS

Researchers in France and Israel have identified a problem with a newly introduced ingredient in some cosmetic and hair-straightener products.

This version of kidney failure is not an “old person” disease, with documented cases including 26-year-old females.

How do you know if you’ve been exposed? One clear sign is if you have scalp irritation and feel nausea or vomit after a visit to a hair salon.

“Given the potential nephrotoxicity of glyoxylic acid through topical application, products containing this compound should be avoided and ideally withdrawn from the market, the researchers suggested in a letter published in The New England Journal of Medicine. The appropriate departments of the French Agency for Food, Environmental, and Occupational Health and Safety have been alerted, Letavernier added. “(1)

It will probably be years before the US takes regulatory action. In the mean time, you have to watch out for yourself and your loved ones.

If you have the symptoms listed, talk to your doctor. Assuming you just caught a bug from someone in the salon could be a costly error.
