Hair Works Extreme Styling Gel 120mL vs Tcb Anti Dandruff Hair Food

• Triethanolamine (pH Adjuster/Neutralizer) — Balances acidity for gel texture; known skin and eye irritant that may cause redness, and has concerns over forming carcinogenic nitrosamines with other chemicals.
• Fragrance (Parfum) (Scent Blend) — Provides appealing aroma to the gel; undisclosed components often trigger allergies, contact dermatitis or respiratory irritation in sensitive users.
• Phenoxyethanol (Preservative) — Prevents bacterial contamination in water-based gel; safer than some alternatives but can irritate skin, eyes or mucous membranes and has debated systemic absorption risks.
• Methylparaben (Preservative) — Inhibits mold and bacteria growth for product stability; parabens linked to potential hormone disruption in studies, though allowed in low doses, caution advised for daily use.

• Tea Tree Oil (Antifungal Agent) — Delivers strong antifungal and antibacterial action to combat dandruff causing organisms, reduces scalp inflammation and itching but may cause allergic reactions or irritation in sensitive skin types.
• Shea Butter (Moisturizing Butter) — Rich in vitamins A and E as well as fatty acids, it locks in moisture, protects hair from damage and improves manageability; beneficial for most but potential allergen for those with nut sensitivities.
