Women are at risk of contracting a scalp infection if they continue using a Dark And Lovely shampoo, which is said to cause scalp infections.
Dark And Lovely Shampoo Recalled For Causing Scalp Infections
The Consumer Protection Commission warned over a 50ml single-use neutralising shampoo contained in the Dark and Lovely Moisture Plus Kits (regular and super). L’Oreal, which produces the shampoo, has since recalled the product.
A probe revealed that the shampoo contains bacteria, which causes scalp infection in people with compromised immune systems. Zimbabwe has now recalled the shampoo from the shelves.
In a public warning, the Commission said:
“The Consumer Protection Commission is in receipt of a notice from the COMESA Competition Commission on the recall of the 50ml single-use neutralising shampoo contained in the Dark And Lovely moisture plus kit (Regular and Super) and Dark And Lovely anti-breakage kit for containing bacteria that may lead to scalp infections in those with compromised immune systems.”

Customers Must Return The Product And Get A Refund
The Consumer Protection Commission urged people with the shampoo to take it back to the shop where they got it from and get their money back:
“The Commission is therefore urging members of the public in possession of the 50ml single-use neutralising shampoo contained in the Dark And Lovely moisture plus kit (Regular and Super) and Dark And Lovely anti-breakage kit to immediately discontinue use of the product and return it to the point of sale for a full refund. The manufacturer, L’Oreal, has recalled the product.
“This recall is being made in line with Section 15 (I) (e) read with sub-section 2 (b) of the Consumer Protection Act, which requires the Commission to “recall the goods for repair, replacement or refund if the goods are unsafe” and “carry out a recall programme on any terms required by the Commission”.
