Q: I have used the biotin shampoo for years and recently stopped because of massive hair loss. How do I apply for a lawsuit
I used the biotin shampoo and conditioner for years and had dramatic hair loss until I stopped using it recently. How can I apply for a lawsuit?
A:
You could reach out to attorneys who handle product liability-based injury cases. There is a tab above (Find-a-Lawyer). Good luck

A: Sorry to hear what you went through. Unless your hair loss was permanent, a products liability lawsuit would probably not be warranted given the costs associated with such lawsuits. You should consider just writing to the manufacturer and asking for a full refund. Moreover, it appears biotin products are for people with thinning hair. You'd have a hard time proving that your hair loss was caused by your use of the product as opposed to a preexisting condition (and which would explain why you bought the shampoo in the first place).
