[an error occurred while processing this directive]choose not to be victimized by fashion!
Hair dye and other cosmetic ingredients can be
absorbed into your body to
potentially damage what has been termed
your 'precious genetic heritage,'
your DNA!
The first scientific papers on this came out in the 70s, but
too few of us have any idea about it...
I only realized something might be up, when I heard that
the EU was banning some of these substances.
I have made this site to help people become more aware of
these likely hazards, and guard against them.
This is a 'stick and ball' model of a 'DNA' double helix.
I will try to get a better one, so you can see how the
chemical structure of
aminophenol (one potentially dangerous ingredient in
hair dyes, and also one of the things that makes cigarettes
carcinogenic)
could stack in easily along the plane of the bases to distort
the DNA structure and induce mutations.

I've also made one page summaries for you to show your friends in English and French. Please talk to people about this issue, especially kids...
