Are You Eligible to File a Claim for Injuries Related to Camp Lejeune?
Hair Straightener Cancer Lawsuit
If you have been diagnosed with a form of cancer that you believe could be related to hair straightening chemicals, speak with an experienced attorney at The Ruth Law Team to see if you have a case.

Legal update: On February 6th, 2023 the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation established the Northern District of Illinois as the court for this litigation. These cancer cases from across the nation will be consolidated all in the same court as an MDL.
Lawsuits related to hair straightening, relaxing, and perm products have been gaining attention in recent years. While there is still a lot that is unknown, studies suggest that there is a possible link between prolonged use of these products and an increased risk of certain types of cancer.
If you or a loved one have used these products and have been diagnosed with uterine, endometrial, or ovarian cancer, or have had a hysterectomy, myomectomy, endometrial ablation, or uterine artery embolization as a result of uterine fibroids, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Cases We’re Evaluating
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with uterine, ovarian, or endometrial cancer, or in some cases, uterine fibroids after using one of these products, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
To be eligible for a personal injury claim, the following criteria must be met:
- The individual must have used a hair straightening, relaxing, or perm product for at least 5 or more times in a year.
- The individual must have been diagnosed with uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, or uterine fibroids. In cases of uterine fibroids, the patient must have had a hysterectomy, myomectomy, endometrial ablation, or uterine artery embolization.
- There must have been at least 4 years of latency between the first full year of the product use and the cancer diagnosis.
If you meet these criteria, it is important to consult with a personal injury lawyer who has experience in handling cases involving hair product-related cancer. Your attorney will be able to help you understand your legal rights and options and guide you through the process of filing a claim.
Additional Background In 2022 an NIH study found women who used products with hair straightening chemicals had an increased risk of uterine cancer. The researcher found that women who reported frequent use of hair straightening products, defined as more than four times in the previous year, were more than twice as likely to go on to develop uterine cancer compared to those who did not use the products.
