If you have been using one of the Action Exclusives hair relaxers and now struggle with uterine or ovarian cancer, you should give our skilled attorneys a call, as you might be entitled to compensation for your unjust suffering. All you have to do to initiate the process is send in evidence of your use of hair relaxers and your medical records.
Although the Action Exclusives hair relaxers are marketed as safe products to straighten your hair, the reality might be very different. Because these products are chemical hair relaxers, they might contain toxic substances, including formaldehyde and phthalates, which increase the risk of developing cancer. These chemicals can easily infiltrate the bloodstream through the burns and lesions using the Action Exclusives hair relaxers can cause.
With regular use, the level of these carcinogens and endocrine disruptors will inevitably increase, placing the consumer at a higher risk of coming to struggle with uterine or ovarian cancer.
The following are the two hair relaxers made by Action Beauty Supply:
- Action Exclusives Relaxer Gold 8 LB
- Action Exclusive Gold Formula Relaxer 4 LB
To become eligible to file a claim if you have been using these products, you must have applied the Action Exclusives hair relaxer for 2 to 5 years at least four times a year and have one of the following diagnoses:
- uterine cancer (endometrial cancer or uterine sarcoma)
- ovarian cancer (non-serous or serous tumors)
The mortality rate for uterine cancer is currently the highest among Black women, as they die of the disease at twice the rate of white women. This is because Black women tend to develop aggressive uterine cancer. While 15 years ago, 39,000 new cases of uterine cancer were diagnosed every year, today, over 66,000 women receive this diagnosis annually. Using toxic hair relaxers might be a significant contributor to the prevalence of this disease among Black women, as the chemicals in these products are endocrine disruptors, and both uterine and ovarian cancer are hormone-sensitive diseases.
