I don’t have an opinion on whether they should be banned on safety grounds.
But if they were to ban it, they should provide adequate notice so end any responsibility to compensate owners, even if that may require an 11-year notice period.

If the beauticians actually followed the laws and stopped under 16/18 using them, there probably wouldn’t be an issue. But money before cancer
