Google “formaldehyde” and you will find it is used in many everyday cleaning products, personal cleansing /beauty products & building materials. Many of these industries are heavily regulated because they have been using formaldehyde and other similar chemicals for years and therefore understand the term “proper ventilation” to mean some type of industrial chemical source capture system.
Dependable keratin hair-smoothing companies have comprehensive training for the stylist and insist that salons provide chemical source capture ventilation before performing these services. These salon chemical source capture systems have been developed specifically for salons that offer keratin hair straightening to make these services are done safely and to help them comply with OSHA standards. Best advice is always to have proper training and safe practices.
