On this page, we’ll discuss the status of the class action lawsuit for hair relaxer products, the difference between a class action lawsuit and multidistrict litigation, how to file a hair relaxer lawsuit, and more.
Recent research has established that frequent hair relaxer use may lead to an increased risk of uterine cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer.
With several women being diagnosed with uterine cancer after frequent hair relaxer use, negligent manufacturers are under growing legal scrutiny.
Hair relaxer cancer lawsuits are being filed into multidistrict litigation (MDL) in the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.
Multidistrict litigation (MDL) is different from class action lawsuits in that settlements are distributed on a case-by-case basis, and each claim is compensated according to their individual circumstances.

Millions of women — including numerous Black women — have used hair relaxers at home and at hair salons for decades to style their hair.
Lawsuits filed in the Northern District of Illinois on behalf of countless women claim to have developed uterine cancer, breast cancer, uterine fibroids, and other health conditions as a result of using hair relaxers and straighteners.
With these hair relaxer cancer cases spanning various jurisdictions, the lawsuits have been consolidated into one MDL.
The hair relaxer MDL is a consolidated lawsuit filed by numerous victims of toxic chemicals in hair relaxers and similar products.
These hair relaxer products — manufactured by several companies — may contain chemicals proven to have significant adverse health effects.
Among these illnesses are uterine cancer, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and uterine fibroids.
The hair relaxer MDL will help to streamline the litigation process by shortening the discovery and pre-trial motions process.
The hair relaxer cancer lawsuit involves multiple defendants.
These defendants are cosmetic companies who have knowingly released cancerous chemical hair straightening products.
These companies also neglected to warn users of the potential risk of uterine cancer that can occur from using their products.
The defendants in the hair relaxer cancer lawsuits include the following companies:
Though both of these types of lawsuits centralize claims that are filed against a particular company (or companies) regarding largely the same allegations, Class Action Lawsuits and Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) are very different.
The differences between these types of lawsuits are in the way they are formed, how settlements are distributed, and how claimants are impacted if a case is dismissed.
Class action lawsuits are filed by a single entity, be it a law firm or lawyer, and people who have been impacted by what the class action complaint states are able to join the claimant class.
Once a class action lawsuit succeeds, the defendants will pay a settlement.
From here, the courts will divide the settlement evenly among the victims.
MDLs enable attorneys and the federal court to consolidate individual claims into one mass tort case.
After the federal court groups all the hair relaxer cancer lawsuits together, the court will oversee litigation proceedings and ensure every plaintiff gets a fair case.
Proceedings overseen by an MDL judge include discovery, bellwether trials, settlement negotiations, and more.
In short, your case will be seen uniquely as part of an MDL.
This may set a person up for a larger compensation package — potentially higher than what a person would stand to get from a class action settlement.
Victims who have developed uterine cancer from using chemical hair straighteners may be eligible to file lawsuits against negligent hair relaxer manufacturers.
A number of potentially negligent manufacturers of chemical hair relaxer products have been named in the hair relaxer litigation.
As it is still early in the Hair Relaxer MDL, we aren’t exactly certain about the direction the litigation may take.
What we can be sure about is the advantages multidistrict litigation possesses when handling lawsuits that allege serious and life-altering medical conditions from commercial products.
These advantages are listed below.
An MDL consolidates different cases into one litigation.
By doing so, courts and lawyers don’t go through the lengthy discovery and pre-trial processes before litigation.
As a result, hair relaxer lawyers and courts spend less time, effort, and resources on hair relaxer cases.
In an MDL, victims don’t get a share of one settlement amount. Instead, every victim gets settlements that are relative to their claim.
This can set victims up for larger settlements than what they’d get in a class action lawsuit.
Lastly, MDLs can be tricky cases. As a result, only the best lawyers and judges oversee MDL proceedings.
This enables victims to benefit from fairer processes and efficient proceedings.
Manufacturers and distributors of hair relaxers and other similar hair products are facing lawsuits for dangerous chemicals in hair relaxer products that may be linked to uterine cancer, breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and other serious health problems.
Hair Relaxer Lawsuits are being consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL), and our lawyers are speaking to prospective clients daily to verify their status for filing.

No, there is not a Hair Relaxer class action lawsuit.
The Hair Relaxer Lawsuit filed on behalf of women who used chemical hair relaxer products and developed cancer is consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL).
If you qualify and file a Hair Relaxer Lawsuit, your case will more than likely be consolidated into the Hair Relaxer Litigation.
If you have any questions about chemical hair relaxers or the Hair Relaxer Cancer Lawsuit MDL, contact our law firm.
Multidistrict litigation, commonly referred to as MDL, is a special federal legal procedure designed to speed the process of handling complex litigations by consolidating cases and addressing all pretrial procedures in one court.
When a large number of people who have all been affected by the same thing file individual lawsuits, such as with the current Hair Relaxer Lawsuits, the federal court system allows for the consolidation of these cases into an MDL to make them easier to manage.
The original lawsuits do not have to be in the same state.
MDLs take cases from multiple federal districts (each state has at least one district), and puts them into one district court.
This single district court, and one judge, then address all the discovery and pretrial procedures that apply to every case – cutting the costs and amount of resources needed, and keeping court rulings consistent with similar cases.
Victims have named several companies in their hair relaxer lawsuits.
Some of these companies include:
Several chemicals in hair relaxer products are potentially carcinogenic.
These chemicals are:
