Keratin Toxic?

KERATIN TOXIC?
In my search for the latest and effective products, I found that there is a huge uproar on the Brazilian Keratin Treatment. By the way Nanokeratin is the same thing. The method used to apply the product during the treatment will expose the client and the stylist to the vapors or fumes of the chemical. However it turns out that this was not current news in Brazil. There had been adjustments done to the formula already. But since this product is being exported to the USA via private distributors or direct purchases, somethings are neglected. However I took the list of ingredients from one of three keratin treatment and searched the net on each one. Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) a silicone. http://www.sehsc.com/d5.asp.Propylparaben
http://en.mimi.hu/beauty/propylparaben.html
, for methylparben http://www.betterhealthandliving.com/articles/natural_beauty/
, on the phase two of this treatment I find listed on the ingredients the following: Dimethyl http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfide, Methyl http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl
,Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) a silicone. http://www.sehsc.com/d5.asp.

Compared to some other products in the beauty industry the percentages and actual ingredients are not as harsh as everyone seems to think. I've researched beauty products with worst ingredients manufactured here in USA. But is being manufactured here so it's OK. If this message get to your hands, inform me back. A lot of my postings get "lost" in the bulk and the mainstream doesn't get to read it. Things that make you go Hmmmm!

Does Nanokeratin straighten hair or does it just repair hair?

If someone has had the Brazilian treatment done, can they do the nanokeratin treatment?

I'm looking for a company who is manufacturing the product such Brazilian keratin in Brazil?
