The Connection Between Uterine Cancer and Hair Relaxers and Hair Straighteners

Women who have used hair straightening chemicals, or relaxers, may be at higher risk of developing uterine cancer.

A study by the National Institutes of Health published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that women who used straightening products were more likely to have uterine cancer than women who didn’t.

There was an even greater association for women who used the products more than four times in a year.

About 60% of the participants who reported using chemical hair straighteners in the past year were Black women.

According to the National Institutes of Health, studies are also showing a rise in uterine cancer among this group.

Dr. Che-Jung Chang, an author of the study and a research fellow in the NIEHS Epidemiology Branch, said “Because Black women use hair straightening or relaxer products more frequently and tend to initiate use at earlier ages than other races and ethnicities, these findings may be even more relevant for them.”

The Shield Legal Network team offers victims diagnosed with uterine cancer after using hair relaxers and hair straightening products a free, private case evaluation to seek justice and potential compensation.

Why It’s So Important That Black Women Suffering a Uterine Cancer Diagnosis File a Claim

Using chemical hair straightening or relaxer products has been shown to more than double the risk of uterine cancer in women.

All consumers that were diagnosed with uterine cancer after using chemical hair straightening products may be eligible for compensation from a hair straightener lawsuit.

Consumers may be able to file a chemical hair straightener lawsuit if they:

-Used chemical hair straightening products or relaxers

-Were later diagnosed with uterine cancer

Affected consumers can take a stand against the companies that made these products and seek compensation that can help pay for medical treatment.

Companies that manufacture personal care items bring in over $42 billion in revenue each year. 

Without a doubt, these large corporations have the resources to conduct the necessary studies to ensure their products are safe.

And, when a company learns that its product contains a potentially harmful substance, the company has a duty to consumers to inform them.

Rather than pull the potentially dangerous products from shelves and conduct further research—or at least issue a warning to consumers—L’Oréal and other companies continued selling these products.

Product liability claims are one of the only ways consumers have to hold large corporations accountable for the harm their products cause.

The Shield Legal Network team believes that black women diagnosed with uterine cancer after using hair relaxers and hair straightening products should receive justice and potential compensation.
