Listen "Do hair relaxers cause cancer?"
Episode Synopsis
In the latest episode of the popular 'The Carol Ofori Podcast,' Carol dives into a subject very close to her heart: do hair relaxers cause cancer?
When Carol began using hair relaxers again this year, she began researching the treatment and the ingredients used in these products, uncovering a potential connection between certain chemicals and various forms of cancer in the process.
In her research, Carol discovered a growing body of studies from around the world highlighting that women who frequently use chemical hair straighteners may face more than double the risk of uterine cancer compared to non-users. The research specifically focuses on the association between chemical hair straighteners containing lye, also known as sodium hydroxide or caustic soda, and cancer.
Carol’s investigation led her to two women working to uncover the truth. Listen to the full podcast below for all the details
