I definately think you should bring this up. Afterall, if I remember
what I've read on the related henna for body art site, ppd in "black
henna" is illegal. It stands to reason that if it's so bad it's been
deemed illegal for skin application, it is at least not so great for
hair/(invariably)scalp application, and had no business being
advertised as "safe and natural" and sold in a health food store.
They should switch brands, easy enough to do, and advertise why they
switched to draw in concerned customers. Win win situation. Just be
gentle, and have documentation, and speak to the owner if possible,
or manager at least. I have found that health food type stores are
particularly eager to listen to their customers complaints, comments
and advice, since they are less mainstream, and by nature cater to a
smaller, more informed customer base, where the demand of a fewer
number of people than regualar stores can have an inpact. Plus,
hopefully, they care about their customer's well being and not just
profit.

PS: Thanks for recomending this site, Kim, it's AWSOME! Kudos to
Catherine, what a resource!
