Outrageous Lawsuit
A woman in Connecticut sued L'Oreal claiming that they had brown hair dye in a blonde hair dye box. She claims that see will never be able to return to her natural blonde hair color. Okay first off why was she trying to dye her hair blonde if she loved her natural blonde hair color? Secondly, your hair grows back out it's natural color. It is not like your hair color stays the color you dye it forever. If this was true I would not be so worried about my roots.
The woman claims that she was tramatized by the reality that her hair is not blonde anymore. She states that it created headaches and anxiety that she had to live with. She needed to be on anti-drepressants because it was so bad.
She goes on to state that it ruined her social life because she no longer got the attention that being blonde gave her. It was so horrible that she often did not leave the house or she would wear a hat to cover her horrible brown hair.
She was never able to even prove that the dye was packaged wrong so the case was dismissed. Even crazier is that this case started in 2005 and it just got dismissed on Monday. What a crazy waste of time. Is being a brunette really that bad? Could she not just recolor her hair? She must have a lot more wrong with her than just hair color.
I kept waiting for a punch line!!! People who sue for anything and the lawyers that are willing to represent them are a part of the problem with this country!
please don't take that as a slam on all lawyers, it was not meant that way. Just the ones that encourage frivolous lawsuits.
Um, obviously the reason there is a stereotype- actualy 2 stereotypes - blondes and attorneys.
One of Mom's best friends is a blond and as she got older she started using hair color to keep it blond. She vows to be blond as long as there's a box of Clairol in the world somewhere!
It seems that ludicrous legal suits like this tie up legitimate lawsuits that need to be prosecuted in a timely manner. Am glad to hear the case was dismissed. One needs to question why her attorney took the case in the first place, and how many others had turned her away before she found 'an ambulance chaser'.
you are right, outrageous is really the word for it. :D
absurd! People will do anything for their 15 minutes I suppose.
lawyering is a job, in fairness to the lawyers.They need money, too just like we need money in blogging that we make reviews for casinos.
Geez...and the call the people where I work "crazy". *sheesh*
