Read our privacy policy Olaplex customers are suing the popular hair care brand and claiming that the company’s products caused them “serious injury” to their hair. The women involved in the lawsuit allege that Olaplex’s products caused “serious injuries” including hair loss, breakage, bald spots, and scalp irritation. In one section of the lawsuit shared by Bloomberg, the allegations say: “Far from repairing and protecting hair from damage, the products have instead left plaintiffs’ hair dry, brittle, frizzy and dull.” One woman involved, Jessica Auriana, opened up about her hair care journey during an interview with Good Morning America this week. The brand has also specified on its health page that their products have been “tested” and “do not cause hair loss or hair breakage”.
