Hair relaxers marketed by Loreal USA inc.

Port Washington, New York – In an order issued on February 6, 2023, the JPML granted a request to consolidate cases involving allegations that hair relaxer products marketed by L’Oreal USA Inc. and others caused uterine, ovarian, endometrial, and other cancers in women.

Pursuant to the order, these cases, and others, will be consolidated before U.S. District Court Judge Mary M. Rowland in the Northern District of Illinois in Chicago as “All actions share common issues of fact regarding whether exposure to phthalates or other causes injury to the reproductive system, whether and when defendants knew or should have known of the alleged risks posed by hair relaxer products, and whether defendants engaged in adequate testing and post-market surveillance.”

Lawsuits have been filed in federal courts in many states including those in New York, California, Tennessee, Ohio, and Georgia, and Parker Waichman LLP expects many more to be filed in the upcoming days and months.
