PPD and related dye intermediates are Category 1 skin sensitisers with documented severe allergic reactions. The developer is a hydrogen peroxide oxidiser. Ammonia is corrosive and a respiratory irritant. Combined, a permanent hair dye kit carries more hazard statements than most consumer products, and the SDS must communicate each one. This is not over-classification; it reflects the real chemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs my hairspray or dry shampoo classified differently from my styling gel?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Aerosol hairspray and dry shampoo are Category 1 flammable aerosols (UN1950) because of the LPG propellant. Styling gel is a water-based product with no flammable-liquid or aerosol classification. Same brand, same fragrance, completely different SDS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes my keratin treatment need formaldehyde classification?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your formulation contains formaldehyde or methylene glycol (which releases formaldehyde when heated), yes. Formaldehyde is an IARC Group 1 carcinogen, and the SDS must classify it with the appropriate hazard statements. Some \"formaldehyde-free\" keratin treatments use alternative cross-linking chemistry (glyoxylic acid, for example), which has a different classification. We classify based on the actual formulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs hair dye a cosmetic or a drug?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder US FDA, hair dye is a cosmetic, subject to MoCRA. However, coal-tar hair dyes (which includes most oxidative dyes) benefit from a specific exemption under FD\u0026amp;C Act Section 601(a) that exempts them from normal safety-proof requirements, provided they carry a caution statement and patch-test directions. Anti-dandruff shampoos and minoxidil hair growth products are OTC drugs, not cosmetics. The SDS is separate from all of these frameworks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is \"black henna\" and why is it classified differently from natural henna?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural henna (Lawsonia inermis) is a plant-based dye that is generally low-hazard. \"Black henna\" typically contains PPD added to darken the colour and speed application. PPD is a potent skin sensitiser, and \"black henna\" products carry significantly stronger classification (skin sensitisation Category 1, acute toxicity) than natural henna.
