California Court to Hear a Ban on Brazilian Blowout

The original date of hearing was set for November 17, 2011 until it was delayed and set to be on December 16, 2011 by Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles. The hearing is set to determine the points and arguments between the people of state of California and GIB maker of Brazilian Blowout in regards of alleged health hazards that the said products would bring to its consumers. The argument concluded that the covering issue is not a simple technicality of the law. It argues that while Brazilian Blowout products by GIB’s are still on the market and still being used by salon stylist, health damage is eminent. Unless otherwise the manufacturer will comply with regulations set by California court of laws in relation to cosmetic care products.

It would seem that the lurking health issues that Brazilain Blowout has been tainted with political intentions. Parties are now taking side but carefully testing the waters, just what politicians would do. The issue has been there for months and claims have been presented. FDA and other state agencies that monitor the contents of cosmetics products have heard the same thing. But it all comes to nothing as many stylists would still offer the products to willing customers. Either Brazilian Blowout hair smoothening product contains harmful contents or carcinogenic elements or not, the truth is the product is still on the market, people are enjoying the benefits it offers, businesses are making money, politicians are gaining popularity. The government on the other hand is spending taxpayers’ money to hear and investigate the staged drama.

Despite Recent Events, Salons Still Offering Brazilian Blowout!

Well, we asked – and you responded!  We received numerous emails and contacts through this website since our last post asking if salons are still performing the Brazilian Blowout and if customers are still asking for it and the consensus is that most of you still LOVE the product!  Most salon owners responded that they are still offering the Brazilian Blowout.  Some salons reported that some of their stylists have chosen not to perform the BB due to health reasons, but the ones that are certified still mostly have at least 1 stylist who can perform the treatment for customers who want it.  From the client’s point of view, despite all of the negativity you may see on the Internet, a lot of you still love the product and are still planning on getting it done.  The media tends to always “blow” things way out of proportion, and this instance was no different.  Despite the fact that BB is now apparently not arguing with the fact that the product has some formaldehyde in it, people don’t seem to mind.  Personally, I can’t say I agree with the fact that they denied it for so long and wish they had just been more forthcoming with their ingredients but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and let it slide.  The product really is great, and unless you have some sort of allergy to it I can’t see it being too harmful.  At least, no more harmful than other comparable things we are exposed to on a daily basis.  I’m no doctor or scientist so obviously don’t assume I’m correct here, but that’s just my opinion. :)   Now, let’s all try to put this mess behind us and focus on the product as it stands today and not dwell on the past!

Class Action Lawsuit Against Brazilian Blowout?

According to the Courthouse News Service, there has officially been a class action lawsuit filed against Brazilian Blowout, alleging that the company made claims of being formaldehyde-free when in fact it was not. Class representatives Jennifer Acitelli Meints and Diana Salinas seek more than $5 million in class damages for fraud by omission, unjust enrichment, breach of warranty, intentional misrepresentation, false advertising and violation of business laws. They are represented by Theodore O’Reilly with the Initiative Legal Group of Los Angeles. That being said – will you, the salon owners, and you, the clients, still have the Brazilian Blowout performed? The results certainly are impressive if you are not allergic in some way to the formaldehyde in the product. Brazilian Blowout is certainly not the first hair care product to contain formaldehyde and certainly won’t be the last.

On October 29, 2010, Oregon OSHA released results of a comprehensive air monitoring study conducted across seven salons. Each case yielded Formaldehyde exposure levels well beneath OSHA’s Action Level, Permissible Exposure Level, and Short-Term Exposure Level.

Consequently, on December 16th 2010, Brazilian Blowout has sued Oregon OSHA for reporting false and misleading test results.

The drama continues, as I’m sure it will for quite some time – so my question to all of you is just this: Will you continue to offer the Brazilian Blowout in your salon? And for clients, will you continue to get the Brazilian Blowout treatment? It is reported to be “safe” now, though tests show there is formaldehyde in the product. If you are comfortable with formaldehyde, will you still get the treatment done because it works so well for you? I’m very interested in seeing who still stands behind this product, both on the stylist and client sides. Please comment below. Thanks!
