Question: If a hair regrowth product is made of natural ingredients, does it mean that it is safer than a product made of synthetic ingredients?
Answer. The answer is absolutely no. As a matter of fact, the opposite may be even true.
First of all, there is no hair growth product that is made of all natural ingredients. There are many purported natural hair regrowth products. The fact is that they have only one or two natural ingredients. Mojority of the ingredients are actually not.
Secondly, natural ingredients are exposed toxic chemicals during extraction such as hexane, ethylacetate, etc.
Thirdly, quality control testing of natural ingredients to detect any toxic impurities is very challenging. Most raw material suppliers never even try to test them.
Fourthly, there is very limited or no safety study for the natural ingredients used in some so-called natural hair growth products.
Lastly, there are numerous natural lethal stuff such as fungus, moulds, or even plants, or flowers.
