Racialized Beauty Standards for Women!

A study conducted by the NIH (National Institutes of Health) reveals- how racialized beauty standards all over the world have led women to the brink of deadly diseases! All those women who use chemical straighteners and relaxers to straighten their dry and frizzy hair are now dealing with the risk of uterine and ovarian cancers- Published on October 17, 2022, in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

Psychology of Straight Hair!

“For the last few years, the world has turned into a beauty contest, where the media has set biased beauty standards for women- which in turn made frizzy and textured hair look outdated; whereas Blonde and Sleek are the new fashion.”

Resultantly, women get attracted to different kinds of hair treatments, including chemical straighteners, hair dyes, and relaxers, without being aware of the fact that they are inviting deadly Ovarian And Endometrial Cancer!

Not surprising! 60% out of 378 cases recorded as per NIH are identified as African-American women as they were frequent consumers of the product using (4x per year or more).

Note: If harmful hair products have affected your health, contact a personal injury lawyer in Houston for legal assistance.

Risks Of Hair Relaxers!

Hair relaxers are chemical treatments that completely alter the natural texture of your hair, leaving them straight and sleek. However, these products are hazardous as they include carcinogens (cancer-causing agent) and endocrine disruptors (not listed as ingredients but fragrance), that increases the risk of uterine and ovarian cancer.

2022 Study and Hair Relaxer Lawsuit!

The 2022 NIH study further reveals that 1.64% of women who never used hair straighteners were likely to develop uterine cancer by the age of 70; but for frequent users, that risk was much higher, almost up to 4.05%,”- Dr. Alexandra White, Head Of The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.

After the shocking revelations, consumers of hair relaxers and their families who were exposed to the risk filed lawsuits against giant companies, including L’Oréal, Soft Sheen, and other BIG BRANDS!
