Description
Generations of Black women have used cosmetic treatments to straighten their hair. Now, thousands claim those hair relaxers gave them cancer.

Those companies vigorously deny those claims, saying their products are subject to vigorous safety reviews and approved for cosmetic use by U.S. regulators. Learn more about your ad choices.
