New health hazards at salons and spas - CNN.com
When Alexandra Spunt went for a keratin hair treatment at a Los Angeles salon two years ago, she hoped to walk out with two months' worth of silky-straight locks.
What she didn't expect: two hours of burning eyes and a sore throat.
"The stylist offered me goggles because my eyes stung and I couldn't stop coughing," says Spunt, 32.
She was shocked to learn that the treatment likely contained formaldehyde -- deemed a possible human carcinogen by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
