Aerosol Sprays and Haircare Products Recalled Due to Benzene
In 2021, several aerosol spray haircare products were recalled because they may contain benzene, which is a known cancer-causing chemical, according to CBS News. The recalled products included dry shampoos and conditioners from well-known brands like Pantene, Herbal Essences, Hair Food, Old Spice, and Aussie. And people who may have been impacted by using these products could consider getting a benzene recall lawyer or defective product lawyer.

Procter & Gamble’s (P&G)’s statement about the recall said it had not been notified about any adverse events from the haircare products included in the recall. The recall notice said benzene can be inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through your skin and potentially cause leukemia and blood cancer in bone marrow.
P&G began a review of its aerosol spray products after recent reports at the time of benzene in some aerosol spray products. The company found unexpected levels of benzene, which came from the propellant that sprays the product from the can.
However, the company also said daily exposure to benzene in the levels in these products was not expected to cause adverse health consequences.
Unfortunately, that was not the last time some aerosol dry shampoo products were recalled due to potentially elevated levels of benzene. Unilever issued a voluntary recall of several aerosol dry shampoo products sold in the United States and Canada for the same reason in October 2022.
It is clear that defective products are still an issue, and the team at Phillips Law Group can help you if you or your loved ones have been affected by this issue or a similar defective product situation.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Talking to Phillips Law Group was the best thing I could do, at first I had my doubts if they really spoke Spanish, but if there are people who speak Spanish and help you so humanely, I recommend that you talk to them in case of accidents, they send you to the doctor They are in charge of guiding you in absolutely everything and after everything was paid I received a monetary compensation which I did not expect and it was a great blessing

I came to Phillips law group as a very naive individual. They took me under their wing and they took great care of me. Montana is his name and he had my back when no one else did. I can't explain what a relief that was in a dark and painful time. They made sure I had all the care I needed and they made great sacrifices to ensure I came out happy. You cannot go wrong with having Philips law group represent you. I'd recommend them to my family and friends and to you strangers. Montana I'm in your debt.

My husband and I have been clients of Phillips Law Group since 1999. Over that time, we have probably used their services 15 to 20 times for various reasons and have referred at least 100 people to them. What’s really great about Phillips & Associates is that, in addition to providing excellent service, if they don't believe they are absolutely the best firm for your case, they won’t take it. Instead, they refer you to another firm that can better handle your needs. This approach is unlike many other firms that might take a shot at handling your case, often learning on the job at the client's expense. Knowing that they would rather decline a case than risk giving the...

Very down to earth people and will fight for you as hard as they can. Highly recommend their office to work with!
