Hair Relaxer Lawsuits: Proceed With Caution
Studies linking cancer to the use of hair relaxer products suggested that certain chemicals found in hair straighteners, such as parabens, bisphenol A, metals, and formaldehyde, may increase the risk of developing uterine cancer. Furthermore, the scalp may absorb these chemicals more readily when hair is straightened, which could exacerbate the risk of cancer. These dangerous chemicals include formaldehyde, formaldehyde-releasing chemicals, oxidized para-phenylenediamine and 4-aminobiphenyl among others. However, these products are not labeled with warnings about the potential risk of cancer.
The following brands have been linked to ovarian and uterine cancer:
- Optimum
- Dark & Lovely
- Creme of Nature
- African Pride
- Just for Me
- ORS Olive Oil Hair Relaxer
- Motions
