Hair waving or straightening

Status: Not listed in the restriction annexes
In brief: Isopropyl thioglycolate is a synthetic thioglycolic acid ester used in hair-waving and straightening products. It works by breaking the disulfide bonds within the hair's keratin structure, allowing the hair to be reshaped into a new curl pattern or straightened form before the bonds re-set.
