Another brand has been added to our #CrossedOff list after using harmful and unnecessary sexualisation to sell products. 

A supporter contacted us asking why she and her children have to be subjected to pornified images in while in her local hair salon. 

We have emailed MUK to let them know our feedback. You can contact them too. For tips on what to include in your letter see our Lodge a Complaint page.

Shadow Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Dr Duncan McFetridge MP, today called for an inquiry into and a report on the sexualisation of children and young people.

“Parents and families have disturbingly reported to me a number of incidents which has driven me to call for a Parliamentary Inquiry into this important issue,” said Dr McFetridge.
