Japan post/EMS, experience in sending hair color/wax overseas?

I went to send a Hair Color+Wax at the post office, but they didn’t accept it and asked for an SDS (Safety data sheet – 安全データシート) .

Due to restrictions it can’t be sent if it contains more than 24% alcohol content and the actual content is not mentioned [https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/use/restriction/index\_en.html](https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/use/restriction/index_en.html)

I contacted the company and hopefully they can provide the SDS. The item I brought was [https://www.emajiny.jp/product/151](https://www.emajiny.jp/product/151)

What’s your experience in sending a hair wax or hair color overseas?

  1. Anything beauty related is a PITA. They will often refuse, and at the other end (depending on where you send it), beauty products often get picked up for import taxes (in my experience, more than books or clothes)
