Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Melanye “Dr. Mac.” Maclin joins Rushion McDonald to discuss the serious health risks associated with hair relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic braids—particularly among Black women. Drawing from over 25 years of research and patient experience, she explains how chemicals used in these products absorb through the scalp, disrupt hormones, and significantly increase the risks of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, early puberty, fibroids, and infertility. The conversation also highlights systemic resistance from the beauty industry, government agencies, and even consumers themselves—primarily due to financial incentives and lack of awareness. Dr. Mac advocates for safer hair practices, increased education, and protective measures to reduce exposure. She also discusses her pioneering internal hair‑health supplements, Bella Nutri, for women (2004) and men (2008), and how she helped introduce the U.S. market to nutritional hair support long before it was mainstream. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: 1. Educate listeners about the hidden health dangers …of chemical hair treatments including relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic hair containing benzene. 2. Advocate for informed hair‑care decisions Dr. Mac wants women—especially Black women—to understand how beauty practices impact long‑term health. 3. Encourage the beauty industry to adopt safety protocols Such as scalp protection, warning labels, and honest communication about risks. 4. Highlight Dr. Mac’s work and products Including her Bella Nutri supplements and educational platforms (Ask Dr. Mac). 5. Empower parents to protect children By avoiding chemical treatments on young girls whose bodies are especially vulnerable. Key Takeaways 1. Chemical relaxers and permanent hair dyes are strongly linked to increased cancer risks. Permanent dyes raise the risk of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer. Black women exhibit a 45% increased risk of breast cancer when using permanent dyes. Combining dyes with relaxers significantly compounds the danger. 2. The danger comes from chemical absorption into the scalp. Relaxer chemicals include sodium, calcium, guanine, and lithium hydroxide. These chemicals burn through the scalp, entering the bloodstream and disrupting hormones, leading to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, and cancer. 3. Synthetic braiding hair contains benzene—a carcinogen. Benzene exposure affects both the stylist and the client. Risks include lung cancer and leukemia. 4. The beauty industry resists change because of profit. Salons rarely display warnings because “it affects business.” The relaxer–damage→hair‑loss→extensions cycle creates a lucrative revenue loop. 5. Children are especially vulnerable to chemical exposure. Relaxers on children under 10 can cause: early puberty fibroids infertility early hysterectomies increased cancer risk Dr. Mac advises never relaxing a child’s hair, but if done, the product must stay on no more than 5–10 minutes with complete scalp protection. 6. Scalp protection is essential for anyone still using relaxers. Use petroleum jelly over the entire scalp, not just the hairline. This reduces chemical absorption during both application and rinsing. 7. Dr. Mac pioneered the U.S. hair‑supplement industry. Developed Bella Nutri after research with a Finnish company (Scalp). Initially dismissed as a “witch doctor,” but now the hair‑supplement market is mainstream. 8. She refuses to participate in relaxer‑related lawsuits. Because she has warned people for 20+ years, she cannot ethically testify for those who ignored repeated warnings. Notable Quotes On the impact of chemicals: “The chemicals burn through the scalp… getting into the main bloodstream and causing hormone disruption.” On the increased cancer risk: “African‑Americans have a more than 45% increased risk when we use permanent hair dyes.” On synthetic braids: “As long as that synthetic hair is on her head, she is breathing in benzene.” On industry pushback: “People are about the green‑eyed devil called money.” On relaxing children’s hair: “Hopefully a mother doesn’t take her child to get a relaxer.” “Hair chemicals can lead to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, even hysterectomies before age 40.” On the vicious cycle of damage and profit: “It’s a 360‑degree money‑making cycle.” On caring more than her patients: “I feel like I’m caring more about someone’s health than they are caring about their own.” On pioneering supplements: “Hair and skin are internal organs—they manifest externally.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Here’s a structured summary of the interview between Dr. Melanye Maclin and Rushion McDonald: Purpose of the Interview The discussion aimed to educate the audience about the health risks associated with hair care chemicals—including relaxers, dyes, and synthetic hair—and to advocate for safer practices. It also highlighted Dr. Maclin’s pioneering work in hair and skin supplements and her ongoing mission to raise awareness about these issues. Key Takeaways FDA Ban on Hair Chemicals In 2023, the FDA considered banning certain chemicals in hair products due to health risks, but no ban has been implemented yet. These chemicals are linked to breast cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, and hormone disruption. High-Risk Chemicals Identified Hair Relaxers: Sodium, calcium, guanine, and lithium hydroxide. Hair Dyes: Para-phenylenediamine (especially in permanent dyes). Synthetic Hair: Contains benzene, posing risks of lung cancer and leukemia. Impact on African-American Women African-American women face a 45% higher risk of certain cancers due to combined use of relaxers and dyes. Cultural and aesthetic pressures contribute to continued use despite health risks. Children at Risk Applying relaxers to young girls can cause early puberty, uterine fibroids, infertility, and increased cancer risk. Chemicals penetrate the scalp, enter the bloodstream, and disrupt hormones. Industry Resistance Pushback from salons and manufacturers due to financial interests. Comparison to tobacco and alcohol industries—profit prioritized over health. Solutions & Advice Avoid chemical treatments when possible. If used, protect the entire scalp with petroleum jelly to reduce absorption. Space out relaxer applications (every 8–10 weeks, max 10 minutes for children). Dr. Maclin’s Contributions Launched Bella Nutri supplements (2004 for women, 2008 for men). Advocates internal nutrition for hair and skin health. Website: drmacklin.com and bellabeauproducts.com. Notable Quotes On FDA inaction:“Still to this day, that ban has not occurred… We’re continuously having women going to the next generation of life as a result—next generation cancers.” On cultural pressures:“We’re so into wanting to have a certain look versus wanting to be healthy.” On children’s exposure:“We’ve got to keep chemicals off of little girls’ hair… It’s causing hormone disruption, early puberty, infertility, and increased cancer risk.” On industry resistance:“People care about the green-eyed devil called money… Look at the tobacco industry.” On her mission:“I feel like I’m caring more about someone’s health than they’re caring about their own.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Miguel & Holly show, Kelbin shared an update after his nightmare Lyft ride that left him debating whether to go full “Karen.” Mandy returned with her decision about whether she should date her former student, and Sophia revealed if she'd give her ex-husband back his wedding ring. Listeners also weighed in on a messy Blown Off where an engagement party for Taylor Swift caused some unexpected drama

These are some horror stories of people who took muscle relaxers...

In this reflective and personal episode of Don't Call Me Resilient, Prof. Cheryl Thompson of Toronto Metropolitan University and author of Beauty in a Box untangles the wending history of hair relaxers for Black women — and the health risks now linked to them.For decades, Black women have been using hair relaxers to help them “fit into” global mainstream workplaces and the European standards of beauty that continue to dominate them. More recently, research has linked these relaxers to cancer and reproductive health issues — and a spate of lawsuits across the United States, and at least one in Canada, have been brought by Black women against the makers of these relaxants.Prof. Thompson and I get into it: including her own relationship to using relaxers as a Black woman, the lawsuits and the wending history and relationship between these relaxants and Black women. We also — for obvious reasons — dip into The Other Black Girl, the novel that is also now a horror-satire streaming series about mind-controlling hair products.For more information and resource, go here: SHOW NOTESA full transcript of the episode can be found here: TRANSCRIPT

Send us a Text Message.In this episode Lou and Teresa discuss an article in The New York Times which reveals that hair relaxers, commonly used by Black women, have troubling health implications. Scientific evidence now links these products to endocrine-disrupting substances associated with early menstruation, reproductive disorders, and even cancers. Unfortunately, despite these risks hair relaxers continue to be aggressively marketed to Black Women. It's essential to raise awareness about these potential health hazards and empower individuals to make informed choices.

Guilty, guilty, guilty on all 34 counts. #45 is not happy, but who cares when earth tones are the colors of this season summer, a new spin turns organic haircare products make them last longer, but not hair relaxers. This episode breaks down the science of Relaxers, explains why they don't cause cancer, and gives five good reasons to use a Relaxer if you want to.

Thousands of Black Women file Lawsuits claiming Hair Relaxers gave them Cancer; Black Lawmakers Reintroduce The CROWN Act to Ban Hair Discrimination - TheAHNShow with Historian & National Political Commentator Michael Imhotep 6-2-24   Thousands of African American Women have filed Lawsuits against hair relaxer companies after the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) study found an association, though not a causal link, between frequent use of chemical hair relaxers and uterine cancer. Hair straighteners such as L'Oreal's Dark & Lovely and Revlon's Creme of Nature are marketed overwhelmingly to women of color, according to the lawsuits.   REGISTER: Class #1 Sun. 6-30-24, 4pm EST, ‘Black Resistance: Haitian Revolution, US Civil War, Civil Rights Movement, Black Power 1800 – 1968, 10 Wk Online https://TheAfricanHistoryNetwork.com/ 

Myth-busting, protocols, and the very best advice on how to achieve the natural look.

Nine out of 10 Black women have used hair relaxing chemicals to straighten their thick curls. But lawsuits have been piling up in state and federal courts across the country for years claiming chemicals in hair relaxers are causing cancer. Reset hears from Traccye Love, one plaintiff in these cases, and learns more about an investigation by WBEZ's Natalie Moore and the Chicago Sun-Times' Andy Grimm. For a full archive of Reset interviews, head over to wbez.org/reset.

Some women with afro and curly textured hair use chemicals to straighten their hair. But using these products can lead to burns and skin irritation. And some of the ingredients, like formaldehyde, are carcinogens. Some studies have shown a link between their use and higher rates of some cancers. Kate Holden, a hair and scalp expert, tells us how chemical straighteners work. Dorcas Wangira, the BBC's Africa Health correspondent, explains the health effects of using these products. Mary Isokariari from the What in the World team discusses why some women feel pressure to straighten their hair. Chinenye Ézémbu in Nigeria tells us why she chemically relaxes her hair and Deborah William shares her health issues, which she thinks are linked to her use of chemical hair straighteners.

“You know I've smoked a lot of grass, Oh Lord I've popped a lot of pills…” – The Pusher Since before the dawn of heavy metal, RELAXERS have been a recurring theme in song lyrics. Whether revered with praise and appreciation or reviled through tales of tragedy and woe, one cannot deny the obvious power and impact RELAXERS have had on heavy music throughout the years. While there are an endless array of RELAXERS available in the world (both legal and illegal, natural and manmade), there are an equally endless variety of songs about them, so many in fact that we could do an entire episode called “Snowblind” although there's much more to metal than the not-so-secret South American plant powder for which Black Sabbath “unofficially” named their 4th album and John Pemberton “officially” used in his refreshingly stimulating soft drinks at the turn of the 20th century. We finally made it to “Nosober November”.

Emma Ansah reports on the cosmetic giants being sued over complaints of cancer causing chemicals in hair relaxers --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/africandiasporanews/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/africandiasporanews/support

Generations of Black women have used cosmetic treatments to straighten their hair. Now, thousands claim those hair relaxers gave them cancer. This special episode takes us inside the legal fight by Black women to demonstrate hair relaxers were harmful and the cosmetic companies who made them knew that and kept marketing to them anyway. Those companies vigorously deny those claims, saying their products are subject to vigorous safety reviews and approved for cosmetic use by U.S. regulators.

For decades, North American Black women have been using hair relaxers  to help them fit into mainstream workplaces and the European standards of beauty that continue to dominate them.  More recently, research has linked these relaxers to cancer and reproductive health issues - and a spate of lawsuits across the United States, and at least one in Canada, have been brought by Black women against the makers of these relaxants. Cheryl Thompson, a professor at Toronto Metropolitan University and author of "Beauty in a Box: Detangling the Roots of Canada's Black Beauty Culture," joins Vinita to untangle the complicated history Black women like herself have with hair relaxants - and where these lawsuits might lead.

This episode of the In The Club Podcast by Club Colors features Dan Klein and Patrick Tannous, Founders of Tiesta Tea. They share their unique relationship as lifelong friends turned co-founders and the genesis of Tiesta Tea. They recall the grind they went through to build a brand that resonates across generations. Through the highs and lows, Tiesta Tea remained true to its core identity and didn't compromise in offering the best that tea can be in both flavor and function. HIGHLIGHTSLearning about tea and the functional beverage category in PragueBrand challenges and knowing who your ideal customer isBrand story and creating a culture around teaA goal to erase the stigma of coffee versus tea QUOTESCreating a functional beverage that appeals across generations Dan: Primarily, there's 5 things that tea can do that each tea can fall under. There's energy, so we call that Energizer. There's teas that'll help you lose weight, Slenderizer. There's teas that boost your immune system, Immunity. There's teas that help you with high levels of antioxidants, we call that Eternity. And then there's teas that help you relax, and we call those Relaxers."Getting direction and focus on doing only what Tiesta Tea is best at Dan "Loose lease tea is exactly who we are and that's where we're best at and that's what we have been best at. It doesn't mean that we're not innovating, it just means that we're focusing on a certain area of the market that we know we're best at."A goal to erase the negative stigma around tea Patrick: "I want to erase the stigma. I hate when people say I'm not a tea drinker. One of the goals is when you try the watermelon tea, you can't say you don't like it. If you don't like it, you don't like fruity... In five years I would hope that, with the expanded distribution and education, that we can get past that stigma of either I'm either a tea drinker or not. That would be mission accomplished." Connect with Dan and Patrick by clicking the links below:LinkedIn (Dan): https://www.linkedin.com/in/danpklein/LinkedIn (Patrick): https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-tannous-678bb521/Website: https://tiestatea.com/In the Club by Club Colors is sponsored by our proud partner:Maple Ridge Farms | mapleridge.com
