Rationale:
Accidental ingestion: The presence of ingredients like Tea Tree Oil, Salicylic Acid, and other active botanicals can be harmful if ingested in large amounts. If a child accidentally swallows the shampoo, it may cause gastrointestinal discomfort or other symptoms.
Children under 2 years of age: Young children have more sensitive skin and are more susceptible to irritation or adverse reactions from certain active ingredients like Tea Tree Oil and Salicylic Acid. It is important to consult a healthcare provider before using such products on children under 2.
General safety: Since this is a topical product, it's always essential to keep it out of reach of children to avoid any potential misuse or accidental exposure.
