THESE METHODS ARENT SAFE!
Brazilain hair straightening was BANNED from Brazil, if they use it in any salon they will be jailed. a chemical thats in it gets activated with heat slowly affects you and others over time by living in your hair, some people have gotten very ill from this and cant wash it off. If this continues over time it can cause severe lung problems, damage, decreased health and promotes cancerous cells. Ive done my research.
as for the Yuko system if the stuff gets on your scalp the hair cuticles widen so much your hair literally begins falling out, alot of people experienced this. Both methods just arent worth it..Im surprised thay didnt mentioned this in the article, they should know the bad points to this method and tellin the truth ofit rather than promoting such a non-curly risk.

The youngest age a person can use this system is 12 but it’s safe for children over 5? That’s a bit confusing.
