Hair Straightening Products Uterine Cancer Lawsuit
- Last Updated: November 20th, 2023
Hair Straightening Products Uterine Cancer Lawsuit Overview
The hair straightening products Uterine Cancer lawsuit has been filed after a new study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute established the first epidemiologic evidence of a connection between hair straightening (or “hair relaxing”) products and uterine cancer.
The study, overseen by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), revealed that females who used chemical hair straightening products frequently (more than four times per year) were more than twice as likely to be diagnosed with uterine cancer than individuals who never used the products.
If you or someone you love used chemical hair straightening products consistently and were later diagnosed with uterine cancer, you could be entitled to seek compensation from the maker(s) of the product you used.
Companies have a legal responsibility to manufacture and sell safe products, and numerous companies seemingly failed to honor that obligation when they created hair straightening products using hazardous chemicals.
If you think your uterine cancer was caused by frequent exposure to hair-relaxing products, you deserve a chance to hold the manufacturer accountable for their negligence.

November 2023 Updates:
November 15th, 2023:
A federal judge, specifically U.S. District Judge Mary Rowland in Illinois, has permitted the majority of claims to proceed in a significant lawsuit alleging that chemical hair relaxer products produced by companies like L’Oreal USA and Revlon are the cause of cancer and other harm.
Judge Rowland rejected most of the companies’ contentions in their bid to dismiss the complaint within the multidistrict litigation, which encompasses over 8,000 lawsuits.
She determined that the plaintiffs had offered ample evidence to substantiate their accusations, which encompass claims of negligence, defective product design, and a failure to adequately caution customers about potential risks.
Of the 15 claims contained in the complaint, Rowland dismissed three entirely and a part of a fourth due to insufficient backing for the plaintiffs’ assertions of fraud.
These hair relaxer products, primarily marketed to women of color, include chemicals for permanently straightening textured hair.
Legal actions were instigated following a National Institutes of Health study published in October 2022, which found that women who used these products multiple times a year were more than twice as likely to develop uterine cancer.
While L’Oreal had previously expressed confidence in the safety of its products, and Revlon stated its disbelief in the existence of scientific evidence linking chemical hair straighteners or relaxers to cancer, smaller cosmetics companies, including some headquartered in India, are also implicated in the lawsuits.
One of the lead attorneys representing the consumers declared that the court’s decision supports their contention that the products and the instructions provided by the companies are responsible for causing cancer.
November 1st, 2023:
The Plaintiff’s Steering Committee is pushing for an 11% set-aside from the total settlement or judgment in each case.
This split comprises 8% for work that benefits all parties involved and 3% for covering common benefit costs.
The motion also highlights unanimous support within the committee. Nonetheless, these attorney fee percentages won’t impact victims’ compensation. The primary focus remains on maximizing settlements for victims, which appears to be progressing effectively.

October 2023 Updates:
October 27th, 2023
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is suggesting a prohibition on the inclusion of formaldehyde as an ingredient in hair relaxers, particularly in products designed for hair-smoothing and hair-straightening, which are commonly used by Black women.
Formaldehyde is a hazardous substance capable of causing irritation to the eyes, skin, lungs, and throat and has been associated with specific cancers, including myeloid leukemia.
The current FDA regulations do not mandate the pre-market approval of cosmetic products and their components, sparking concerns about the safety of these products.
Recent studies have illuminated the potential risks associated with chemical hair relaxers, revealing a heightened likelihood of uterine cancer among women who use such products.
Hair relaxers often contain endocrine disruptors that can disrupt the body’s hormone system, leading to a range of health issues, such as early puberty, fibroid tumors, infertility, and reduced fertility in women.
The FDA’s proposed prohibition follows concerns raised by congressional representatives and advocates regarding the safety of these products, particularly among Black women.
The intended date for implementing the ban is set for April.
Moreover, policies like the CROWN Act, which bars discrimination based on hair texture, have been gaining traction in numerous states to address concerns surrounding hair and societal norms.
October 1st, 2023:
Judge Rowland recently issued Case Management Order No. 9 (CMO 9) to address the rapid increase in hair relaxer class action lawsuits. This order establishes guidelines for the filing and handling of Short Form Complaints (SFC) by the numerous new plaintiffs participating in the MDL.
The surge in new chemical hair straightener lawsuits can be attributed to a bankruptcy judge’s order related to Revlon. This order mandates lawyers to file lawsuits in order to safeguard their claims against Revlon.

September 2023 Updates:
September 18th, 2023:
In the past three months, an additional 2,000 cases have joined the hair relaxer class action lawsuit. At this rate, it is projected that the MDL will exceed 4,000 cases by the end of the year. There is anticipation that this trend will persist and possibly even lead to the hair relaxer MDL becoming as large as the talcum powder MDL.
September 6th, 2023:
Throughout the past month, several noteworthy developments have come forth. During a recent status conference presided over by Judge Rowland, a firm deadline of August 30, 2023, has been established for the submission of a joint written status report concerning the dismissal motions related to McBride, the defendant.
There was also debate at the conference regarding Federal Rule 26(a)(1) and 30 (b)(6), which involve expert witnesses and company testimonials. Both parties were arguing that the other’s witness selection and testimonial strategies did not align with one of the federal statutes.
Additionally, Dabur International, the parent company of Namaste Laboratories and a prominent defendant in the hair relaxer lawsuit, switched its legal counsel from Kirkland & Ellis LLC with new attorneys from Baker & McKenzie LLP.
And earlier this month, Dermoviva Skin Essentials Inc. was removed from the class action, however, the possibility of its reinstatement is still under consideration.

August 2023 Updates:
August 26th, 2023:
Judge Rowland has slated a discovery hearing for October 2nd, 2023.
August 21st, 2023:
A woman from Brooklyn, Minnesota, has become a recent addition to the hair relaxer class action MDL.
The lawsuit alleges that between 1985 and 2011, the plaintiff used three chemical hair relaxer products: ORS Olive Oil, Just for Me, and S&B Botanicals. In 2019, the plaintiff was diagnosed with endometrial cancer, which she attributes to the use of these hair relaxer products.
August 18th, 2023:

July 5th, 2023:
Revlon provided an update on their ongoing bankruptcy proceedings and responded to the plaintiffs’ status report, submitted on June 30, 2023, before the MDL judge.
Despite being in bankruptcy, the significance of Revlon’s case lies in its possession of a substantial insurance policy to cover hair relaxer cancer lawsuits.
The company is responsible for various hair relaxer brands, including Crème of Nature, African Pride, French Perm, Fabulaxer, Revlon Professional, Revlon Realistic, Herbarich, and All Ways Natural Relaxer.

June 2023 Updates:
June 8th, 2023:
Attorneys representing victims in federal hair relaxer lawsuits are urging the Court to reject a proposal by the product manufacturers to divide the discovery process, citing concerns about potential lengthy delays in the litigation.
Manufacturers of hair relaxer products, in response to mounting lawsuits, have requested the court to bifurcate discovery.
This would limit discovery to general causation information on the link between hair relaxers and cancer while staying all other discovery related to manufacturers’ liability, awareness of risks, and extent of damages.
In a brief submitted on June 5th, plaintiffs underscored bifurcation’s potential to cause substantial delays in the litigation process, escalate costs significantly, and its track record of being “incredibly inefficient” in achieving a resolution or settlement.

April 2023 Updates:
April 1st, 2023:
The MDL judge issued an order that enables any plaintiff whose case would be subjected to transfer to the hair relaxer class action lawsuit to file their case directly in the MDL in the Northern District of Illinois.
The order includes specific procedures for direct filing, such as paying a filing fee and designating a venue in the complaint.
However, this order does not waive any party’s legal rights or remedies, nor does it determine the jurisdiction or choice of law.
Defendants do not have to respond to any complaint filed directly in the MDL unless ordered by the court or agreed upon by the parties.
The number of new hair relaxer lawsuits filed across the country has been increasing, with over 200 pending cases and 38 new lawsuits filed in federal courts in the last two weeks of March.
With the recent order allowing new cases to be filed directly in the hair relaxer class action MDL, it is expected that the rate of new filings will increase even further.
-

What Are the Hair Product Uterine Cancer Lawsuits?
On October 24, 2022, The Washington Post and other outlets reported that a federal lawsuit was filed against L’Oréal and other cosmetics companies, alleging that hazardous chemicals found in their hair straightening products put consumers at an increased risk of developing uterine cancer.
The lawsuit was filed by Jenny Mitchell, who was forced to undergo a hysterectomy at 28 after being diagnosed with uterine cancer.
The lawsuit was filed just a short time after the NIH published the results of their study.
The study followed 33,497 Sister Study participants over 10+ years and confirmed a link between hair-relaxing products and uterine cancer.
The findings were especially concerning for Black women like Mitchell, who have reported using chemical hair straightening products at higher rates than other demographics.
Uterine cancer is more common among Black women than women in other groups, and tragically, Black women are also more likely to die due to uterine cancer than women from other demographics.
Still, anyone who developed uterine cancer after using chemical hair straightening products could be entitled to recover damages through a civil lawsuit.
If you meet these criteria, you might be able to pursue compensation for medical expenses, in-home care, lost income, lost quality of life, mental anguish, pain and suffering, and other losses.
To determine whether you qualify for a lawsuit, you should reach out to an experienced Illinois product liability lawyer at TruLaw.
What Is Uterine Cancer?
Uterine cancer is an umbrella term for a group of cancers that affect the uterus.
The uterus, where unborn fetuses grow during pregnancy, is the primary component of the female reproductive system.
Some of the most common signs and symptoms of uterine cancer include:
- Pain in the pelvic area
- Abnormal vaginal discharge
- Irregular vaginal bleeding between periods or after menopause
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Abnormal menstruation
- Abnormal weight loss
There are two types of uterine cancer: endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma.
Endometrial cancer is far more common than uterine sarcoma.
According to the American Cancer Society, it is the most prevalent cancer of the female reproductive system.
Endometrial cancer occurs in the inner lining of the uterus when cells there grow out of control and form a tumor.
A hysterectomy is typically the recommended course of treatment.
The other type of uterine cancer, uterine sarcoma, is a much rarer type of cancer than endometrial cancer.
It occurs in the muscle of the uterus as well as in surrounding tissues.
The American Cancer Society says that uterine sarcomas account for just two to five percent of uterine cancers.
Which Chemicals in Hair Straightening Products Are Linked to Uterine Cancer?
The NIH study didn’t compile data on specific brands that participants used, but it did name numerous chemicals typically found in hair straightening products that could increase the likelihood of developing uterine cancer.
Those chemicals include:
- Formaldehyde
- Parabens
- Sodium hydroxide
- Triclosan
- Bisphenol A
- Heavy metals
- Diethanolamine
- Benzophenone-3
- Cyclosiloxanes
The chemicals in hair straightening products have also been linked to breast cancer and other hormone-related cancers.
Who Is Most At-Risk of Developing Uterine Cancer Due to Hair Products?
Women who regularly use hair straightening products may have a higher risk of developing uterine cancer when compared with people who don’t use these products.
Because hair straightening products (also called hair relaxers) are very popular with Black women, Black women may be more vulnerable to developing uterine cancer from these products than other groups.
Black women already pass away due to uterine cancer at double the rate of other racial and ethnic groups.
According to the University of Washington, the mortality rate for Black women with endometrial cancer is 39.1 percent.
For white women, it is 19.8 percent. In general, Black women have a 55 percent higher mortality rate for endometrial cancer than other demographics.
