Formaldehyde is a dangerous chemical found in certain hair smoothing products. Overexposure to formaldehyde may cause serious health complications. Because of this, the U.S. Department of Labor Occupational Health and Safety Administration issued a warning to consumers and beauticians about the health hazards of formaldehyde overexposure. Salon stylists, owners, and other workers are at a greater risk of suffering overexposure than their customers.

Salon owners have the right to know whether or not the products they purchase contain formaldehyde so that they can take the necessary precautions to avoid serious health complications. In the past, OSHA has found formaldehyde in products that claimed to be free of dangerous chemicals. Because of this, OSHA has done extensive testing to determine how much formaldehyde is unsafe and the adverse side effects of overexposure.
