Frequently asked questions
- Is hair extract safe during pregnancy?
- No specific chemical identity, CAS, or authoritative safety assessment located for an ingredient labeled only as “hair extract” in the prioritized sources (ECHA Annex VI/C&L, SCCS, CIR, PubMed, ECHA dossiers, PubChem, CosIng, EWG). Per CIR/SCCS defaults, absence of reproductive hazard data and no harmonised CLP classification support a default score of 0 for hazard, mechanism, and exposure for pregnancy.
- Is hair extract safe while breastfeeding?
- No product-specific or constituent-specific data found in the prioritized sources regarding breastfeeding transfer or lactation hazards for an unspecified “hair extract.” In the absence of identified constituents or reproductive/toxicology data, default scores are 0, consistent with CIR/SCCS guidance when no hazards are reported.
- Is hair extract safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific hazard or mechanistic data found for an unspecified “hair extract.” Hazard and mechanism default to 0. Exposure is increased to 1 for baby skin (vs adult) because baby skin has higher surface-area-to-weight and an immature barrier; where an ingredient is not demonstrated to be completely non‑absorbable, a modest increase in exposure score is appropriate in absence of contradicting data.
