Lead compound (banned in the EU; legacy hair dyes)
What is it, what should you do?
A lead compound formerly used in some men's hair dyes for gradual darkening. Because lead is a known heavy metal that can accumulate in the body and damage the nervous system, the EU completely banned this substance in cosmetic products. It is not expected in products on the market today; its presence is a serious cause for warning.
