The has been a wave of news around the www about relaxers causing uterine fibroids and early puberty among African Americans. I appreciate the fact that real doctors are now acknowledging that hair relaxers are wreaking some type of havoc on our bodies. I have heard claims, in recent months, that doctors have been telling patients with a history of aneurysm and brain tumors to stop getting their hair chemically treated! Hmmmm....... have we been, unknowingly, causing harm to our brains and female organs all of these years?
Studies have actually been done and released by several organizations. BlackDoctor.org touches, briefly, on this subject.
Where do you stand on your belief of these findings? If you have a relaxer now, does this make you think about going natural? Do you have members of your family that are long time users of the creamy crack and have suffered from any of the above mentioned problems? Comment below and let me know what you think.
Bye for now,
Ria
