FYI – Recall on Clairol Natural Instincts Hair Color

Just released on April 11, 2011 and April 18, 2011, Proctor and Gamble have recalled its Clairol Natural Instincts products. This was a voluntary recall by Proctor and Gamble stating that the products may produce an unwanted color effect. This recall covers the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. From what I understand the Revitalizer sachets in these products create the unwanted color. Proctor and Gamble however that the products in the kit remain safe to use but do not use the Revitalizer Sachet.

Below are the products that have been taken off the market, however if you currently own one of these products you should contact Clairol or the retailer where you purchased it at.
