A new lawsuit has been filed in the MDL by an Indianapolis woman against several hair relaxer manufacturers, including L’Oréal, SoftSheen-Carson, and Strength of Nature. The plaintiff alleges that using the defendants’ products, such as Dark and Lovely, Optimum Salon Haircare, and Africa’s Best, from the early 1970s to 2018, led to her developing endometrial cancer in 2021.

The complaint claims the products contained harmful chemicals that increased her cancer risk and includes causes of action for negligence, strict liability, failure to warn, breach of warranties, and consumer protection violations. The plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages and a jury trial.
