Email to the Company
Before classifying any brand as cruelty-free and vegan, I send them an email with the following questions.
- Are your products vegan? If only some are vegan, which ones?
- Are any of your products or ingredients tested on animals?
- Do you have a Leaping Bunny or PETA certification?
- Do your suppliers or any third parties test animals on your behalf?
- Does your company sell products in mainland China (except for Hong Kong and online sales)?
- Are you owned by a parent company that tests on animals?
This is how Color Wow responded to my email:
Not all products are vegan, the vegan products are Kale Cocktail, Dream Coat, Dream Filter, Style on Steroids, EXTRA Shine Spray, Blue Foam, Purple Foam, Pop ‘n lock, One Minute Transformation, Extra Large Volumizer, Money Masque.
We do not test on animals or sell to China, and we do not have a parent company that tests on animals.
Regarding the PETA certification, I have contacted the relevant teams to look into this and we will be back in touch as soon as we have further information.
