Find case law on the below scenario:
Chirs is, a hair model for Head and Shoulders shampoo ironically has
an allergy to pet hair and dander so he purchased his hairless cat,
Mike, from Bobbi last year. In January 2018 he began sneezing and
coughing around the cat so he ordered a bottle of Cair. He began
using Cair on or about January 21st and immediately noticed a
reduction in his sneezing and coughing, however, about 2 weeks
later he began to notice his hair thinning. This of course is not good
for a hair model and he's only 35.
Chris immediately looked at the Cair packaging and did not see any
warning signs about its use, nor did he see any ingredients that
might cause hair loss. He then went to his doctor who told him it
appeared to be an allergic reaction, but by this time a week had
passed and he had multiple bald spots on his scalp. As a result of
the hair loss Chris lost his contract with Head and Shoulders and
fell into a pit of despair.
SCENARIO
Not knowing what to do next and fearful he would lose not only his
job, but his home and of course be unable to care for Mike, he
contacted an attorney. The attorney advised him to file a lawsuit
against Bobbi after having Cair analyzed by a chemist.
The chemist, Ike, determined that the ingredients include garlic,
aloe, turmeric, mint, lavender, orange peel, argon oil and trace
elements of calcium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide, neither of
which are listed ingredients on the bottle. The last two ingredients
are known to cause hair loss and in fact are the main ingredients in
the product Nair. The testing was done specifically on the bottle of
Cair Chris purchased.
TNT Manufacturing, Inc., the company Bobbi uses to manufacture
her product is located in Lawton, Oklahoma. TNT not only blends
the ingredients for Bobbi's product, but for many other companies
as well, including Nair.
