Transparency of Chemicals Used in Hair Products

Added seven new Senate sponsors (Amabile, Coleman, Cutter, Danielson, Exum, Hinrichsen, Jodeh, Kipp, Kolker, Rodriguez, Snyder, Weissman) to the bill's sponsorship list.

Removed the definition of 'intentionally added' chemicals in hair products, which previously specified a concentration threshold of greater than one hundred parts per million.

The definition of 'hairpiece product' was updated to explicitly list wigs, hair extensions, and decorative hair adornments, broadening the range of products subject to the bill's transparency requirements.

Specific references to 'hair relaxers' were removed from certain sections in favor of the broader term 'hairpiece products' to streamline the definitions.

New language was added stating that the bill's requirements should align with applicable federal law and guidance, including updated classifications from agencies like the EPA and WHO.

The legislative findings were modified to emphasize consistency in warning labels across similar products to reduce unnecessary burdens on manufacturers while maintaining consumer protection.

Added new sponsors to the bill, including Bacon, Brown, Carter, Duran, Goldstein, Jackson, Lieder, Lindsay, Mabrey, Nguyen, Rutinel, Sirota, and Benavidez.

Expanded the definition of 'synthetic hairpiece product' to explicitly include decorative hair adornments and products treated with chemicals.

Updated the document header to reflect the bill is now 'Reengrossed' and included a new summary date of March 3, 2026.

Changed the legal consequence for violations from a specific civil penalty of up to $10,000 per day to a 'deceptive trade practice,' which subjects violators to penalties under existing consumer protection statutes.

Added a new definition for 'intentionally added' to clarify that it only applies to chemicals purposefully introduced and remaining in the product above a specific threshold, explicitly excluding incidental presence from raw materials or processing agents.

Removed the specific requirement for warning labels to be printed in 'no less than size twelve-point font,' removing a technical formatting constraint from the law.
