More than 90 per cent of hair products sold in Hong Kong and tested by the city's consumer watchdog were found to contain harmful substances, some of which may affect sexual functions and reproduction. The quantities of such chemicals were low, but the Consumer Council said some of the tested items exceeded international, national and local standards.

This video is useless without saying the brands name.
all.
So which ones exceed the limit? Thats a lot of famous hair product brands there...
All of them try to find products that use natural ingredients or if you're on a budget use arm&hammer essential products. Even the fancy deodorants in the store shelves are bad for you. All because the corporations have become greedy.
Exactly, need a list on said brands.
Thanks for sharing
Can you please tell the names of those brands so that they can be avoided?
I'm a product formulator and this news report is regurgitating the fear mongering of ingredients that have been going on for years. Yes some ingredients are potentially allergenic and it's all about following cosmetic regulations but the EU regulations are different from Japan or US. Parabens, really?! Which parabens are you referring too? Parabens used in cosmetics have been around for decades and are often less the .5% of the entire product formula. Just because some ingredient may be carcinogenic in animals doesn't necessarily mean it's the same for humans. Plus the amounts of these ingredients used in lab testing for animals are in very high concentration and in are sometimes fed to the animals versus topically applied. Please understand how science works. Linalool and limonene are molecules found in lemon and lemongrass and lavender essential oils too which are classified as volatile organic compounds VOCs. EU regulations require brands to include potential fragrance allergens in the ingredient list for customers with allergies to such molecules. The US and other countries do not but it doesn't necessarily mean they're intentionally deceiving their consumers.
If these are the levels in Hong-Kong, i can't image how toxic these would be in India!
Best is to stay away from the social media hype and stay off of styling that everyone does!
stay natural, that's the best.
u dont shampoo your hair?
@@Nole2701 nope. I don't even use toothpaste, nor soaps.
I hail from a village and I still follow my culture of keeping off of these things and opt for the old practices.
That's why cancer rates are high only in the cities, least in villages not exposed to modernism.
@@abc_cba What are your teeth looking like? Well now that I think again, if you live in a rural village you probably don't eat much sugar to begin with so it probably isn't too bad. How do u wash your body or hands without soap though
@@Nole2701 well, I moved to Finland.
But back then, we used to use fine charcoal powder and I now use carbon powder for teeth. Extremely healthy. I made my mouthwash with a few ingredients too.
For my shower, I use natural saponin heavy herbs.
My skin shines.
No mention about hair loss as potential effect. Guess the root cause of my problem still cannot be found.
that is crazy. Don't they have standerisation for this?
Not in poor China.
@@Bubba-q2b some are Japanese brands
@@kleec495 Which ones?
@@ToiChutGongWu How terrible 😂
We hv this this rice
People are too sensitive nowadays
We have all these safety standards but not enough people to test and enforce them. So manufacturers get away with not sticking to them.
Look up who owns most of the hair products in your local stores black rock. All hair products are next to each other shampoo, conditioner, gel,hair spray and in one end hair regrowth products its not a coincidence. Try to find natural hair products forget about the smell just focus on not going bald or having a skin disease or cancer
BlackRock? BlackRock is an investment firm, owning shares in almost all listed companies, so obviously they will be co-owners of almost any product on the market, not just hair care products.
However, specifically, you may be thinking about Johnson & Johnson and Procter & Gamble, two large consumer products and healthcare products companies. BlackRock owns about 6% of Procter & Gamble, and 6% of Johnson & Johnson.
Welcome to China. That's why I buy even toothpaste outside of China
useful idiot, all those brands in the video are non Chinese brands,
Use only soap and water to wash your hair...that's it!
No soap is just as bad there’s plenty of safe hair care products it just needs to be not tested on animals. SLS parben free dye free. I use non scented. Washing powder. And I use chemical free hair care
My hair is awesome and extremely healthy
Those contain harmful chemicals are hairstyling products, such as hair wax, hair gels, etc. not shampoo and conditioners
We had toothpaste that contained car antifreeze imported here from 🇨🇳 , luckily it was discovered before being sold to the public.
These chemicals may be banned in the EU, but are they banned in HK? In China? The video didn't say anything about that.
In 2017 my hair was completely full of dandruffs all becuz of my friend's pomade which contains one of these allergens...up until now ,i still have this problem
And the guy talking is using a hair styling product. Lol
what is the solution ? ?
tresemme brand also? they are quite famous and used by a lot of people.. 😢
All the brands are owned by black Rock same with deodorants and almost everything sold in Walmarts.
Wow ! Hair salons are hazardous to health. Now those hazards can be enjoyed at home .
What brands??? This is useless information.
四川成都一名男子爆料，近日在「楊銘宇黃燜雞米飯」的外賣中，發現一整隻已經「燉爛」的死老鼠，令無數網民為之作嘔。據了解，男子事後已與商家達成和解，當地警方和市監部門已經介入調查。
They just wanna see us go extinct at this point 😂
Shampoo & haair care products do not nred FDA regulation
What happens when we do not have hair ? :(
WEF approved future
Ironic this presenter looks to have a ton of products in his hair.
90% wow
Hong Kong never learns
@@ToiChutGongWu Or Xi’s words.
As a HK Chinese, I agree
@@ToiChutGongWu👀 Hello 😂
Those products are made in China.
@Maximus0187 Theyre actually not. Theyre imported from abroad.
But even if, with an emphasis on EVEN IF, even if they were made in China, they follow the standards and use ingredients set out by their parent company, which isnt Chinese.
But some products in the video have Japanese ひらがな and カタカナ on them, don't they?
@@ToiChutGongWu😂 Really.
@@ToiChutGongWu
plz follow community guidelines
@@Hkchinese888😂 He has difficulty reading them because of his small eyes.
