Hair relaxers, commonly used for straightening curly or textured hair, have been linked to an increased risk of serious health conditions, including uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, and other hormone-related illnesses. Prolonged or frequent use of these chemical products may lead to life-altering diagnoses.
If you or a loved one developed cancer or other serious health conditions after using hair relaxers, Legal Claim Assistance can help you take legal action. We work with individuals across the U.S. to seek compensation through hair relaxer lawsuits.
What Is the Hair Relaxer Lawsuit About?
Hair relaxers are chemical treatments designed to straighten curly or coily hair textures. However, recent studies, including one from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), have revealed that frequent use of hair relaxers containing certain toxic chemicals significantly increases the risk of developing hormone-related cancers such as uterine and ovarian cancer.
Despite these known risks, many manufacturers have failed to warn consumers, putting countless individuals at risk. Those who have suffered from these health issues may be eligible to file a lawsuit for compensation.
At Legal Claim Assistance, we partner with experienced attorneys who specialize in holding companies accountable for negligence and securing justice for those harmed.
Who Can File a Hair Relaxer Lawsuit?
You may be eligible to file a hair relaxer lawsuit if you or someone you know:
- Used chemical hair relaxers regularly (at least four times per year)
- Were diagnosed with uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, or endometrial cancer
- Have undergone or are currently undergoing medical treatment for these conditions
Since every state has deadlines for filing lawsuits, known as statutes of limitations, it’s critical to act quickly to preserve your right to compensation.
Symptoms of Cancers Linked to Hair Relaxers
The prolonged use of chemical hair relaxers has been associated with serious health risks, including reproductive system cancers. Common symptoms to watch for include:
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding or discharge
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Frequent urination or urinary urgency
- Persistent bloating or abdominal discomfort
- Pain during intercourse
If you have experienced any of these symptoms or received a related diagnosis after using hair relaxers, you may have a strong case for compensation to help cover medical expenses, lost wages, and more.
