Personally, I am against the usage of this chemical. The chemical has more negatives then positives. When a chemical can cause harm to people, then I don't see it in any way as helping. I believe that the chemical should stop being used, but this could be very bad for not only the economy and personal health. With estrogen being in shampoo, getting rid of estrogen would be bad. -SAMMIE
