Beware: Contains Denatured Alcohol

Customer service was great at PL but beware: the second ingredient in this product is denatured alcohol.
Normally I never wrote reviews and love BR products, but I was stunned that BR, perhaps trying to foray into the hair market, would list rubbing alcohol as their second ingredient. At first I thought I had misread the label, and it was the conditioning alcohol called cetearyl alcohol. Nope.

The full ingredients list isn’t listed anywhere online so I didn’t notice when I researched the product. For such an expensive, luxury hair-care product, I would not have expected a damaging and outdated ingredients list. I tried to find research that showed denatured alcohol could be formulated to be beneficial or non-damaging (like fatty alcohols). While it’s possible that the glycerin and urea at the bottom of the ingredients list might just be sufficient to counterbalance the denatured alcohol’s drying effects, it’s up to you if you want to take the risk. Though after Googling “denatured alcohol in hair care” you may not decide to pay $50 to essentially spray rubbing alcohol on your hair. Overall, this is a leave-in product that has denatured alcohol as the second ingredient, so it’s at a high concentration and will be staying on your hair for a long time. After having such good luck with the rest of the BR skincare line, I have to say that my trust in the brand is shattered.
