Is the viral glitter shampoo hack safe for your hair?

According to a report by Indian Express, using glitter on your hair once or twice is completely fine. However, it can be harmful to your hair health if used for a longer period of time.

The glitter has a water-soluble paper component and an artificial chemical component that sticks around even after the hair has been washed. This chemical may be a kind of microplastic, making the biodegradability of the glitter questionable.

The reels have received a mixed reaction from netizens. While some loved the concept, some were not happy with how it can affect the environment and hair.
