5. Common mistakes to avoid

  1. Patch tests skipped for 'regular clients' despite regulatory requirement
  2. Product SDS files not on premises or outdated
  3. PPD concentration not checked against Annex III limits

6. Dialogue

🦉 & 🐥 & 🐮 — Salon operator dialogue

🐥
Piyo: Poppo, what exactly is the EU ALG regulation changing in July 2026?
🦉
Poppo: EU Regulation 2024/996 mandates individual labelling of 80 specific hair-dye allergens with concentration limits. Before this, products only had to carry a generic 'may cause allergic reaction' warning. Now each sensitising substance must be named on the label.
🐥
Piyo: So salons need to update their product inventory?
🦉
Poppo: Yes — and their patch-test protocols. If a client is allergic to PTD specifically, you need to know which of your products contain PTD and at what concentration. The SDS is your friend.
🐮
Mou: Strong, kind, beautiful — knowing exactly what's in your colour tube is the difference between art and risk.
