Studies found hair straightener chemicals linked to uterine and ovarian cancer

Recent studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Oxford University and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences suggest that the chemicals found in many hair straighteners may be linked to an increased risk of uterine and ovarian cancer. These chemicals are used to make hair look more manageable and smooth, but it is important to note that they may also be harmful to our health.

The findings of these studies have caused alarm among many scientists and doctors. The chemicals, which are used to break down proteins in the hair and make them more malleable, have been found to cause changes in the body’s cells that could lead to uterine and ovarian cancer.

If you have been diagnosed with uterine or ovarian cancer and have used these hair care products, contact us today and we will evaluate the possibility of pursuing a claim for your illness.

Hair Straightener FAQs

Yes, using chemicals to relax or straighten hair increases your risk of uterine and ovarian cancer. The products are also used on the scalp, one of the most sensitive parts of the body, where the chemicals are known to make lesions and burns.

In many cases, commercial hair straighteners are made with harmful chemicals. Some of the most popular hair straightening merchandise has chemicals that disrupt hormones and link to various forms of cancer, including cancer of the uterus. Some well-known brands of hair relaxer and straighteners are often manufactured with:

  • Metal: Characterized by high electrical and thermal conductivity, such as lead, mercury and nickel.
  • Paraben: Known as effective preservatives in many types of cosmetics, lubricants, food and pharmaceuticals.
  • Formaldehyde: Classified as a human carcinogen, this flammable compound leads to severe eye, nose and throat irritation.
  • Bisphenol A (BPA): Belonging to the family of organic compounds, BPA is used to make plastics, but can damage reproductive systems.

Due to state laws known as “statutes of limitations,” you have a limited amount of time that you can file a lawsuit for your injuries related to chemical hair straighteners. If you miss your window, it will be too late to take any form of legal action.

According to The Washington Post, reported cases of uterine cancer are increasing throughout the nation. In 2022, 65,000 women were projected to be diagnosed with the disease. The National Cancer Institute estimates that more than 12,000 deaths occur from ovarian cancer.

Research indicates that uterine cancer disproportionally affects African American women simply because they are the most frequent consumers of the hazardous products.

Fortunately for victims of toxic hair straightening items, you do not have to worry about any upfront fees whatsoever. You only have to pay our team of professionals if you are successfully compensated.

That means there is zero financial risk involved.

Money rewarded to people that win lawsuits against the big business hair straightener companies can use the money towards medical expenses, such as costly cancer treatments and travel to and from specialists’ offices.

Often times, individuals also recover lost wages from work missed due to their illnesses.
