Hair products and salon air

In Taipei hairdressing salons, air pollutant concentrations were significantly higher around the working areas, so hair products were considered their major source, and formaldehyde levels were associated with the number of perming treatments, the number of workers and how often formaldehyde-releasing products were used.

SCOPE

Five salons measured for formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds, carbon dioxide and phthalates; it measures air composition, not odour.

SUPPORT CHECK

The statement the claim rests on was found word for word in the abstract fetched from the named service, and an editor read the full abstract against every part of the claim. Abstract from Europe PMC (ebi.ac.uk/europepmc).
