The Moroccan brush is a definitive way to straighten hair that contains keratin, collagen and formaldehyde. It is sold as a kit consisting of shampoo, smoothing, neutralizing cream and argan oil.
When using the Moroccan brush, the individual must read the label and confirm that it does not contain more than 0.2% formaldehyde in its composition. Because, according to Anvisa, formaldehyde comes in contact with the heat of the hair dryer and is transformed into steam, which can be absorbed by the skin or inspired, causing health problems.
The duration of the straightening of the Moroccan brush depends on the type of hair and its growth time, and must be touched up at the root when the hair grows, generally, every 3 months.
