A recent study has found that women who use permanent hair dye and chemical straighteners had a higher risk of developing breast cancer.
Researchers found women who use the products every eight weeks or more have a 60 percent higher risk of breast cancer compared to non-users.
Black women who used permanent dye had a 45 percent higher risk.
Scientists said more research needs to be done on the connection.
