Mielle Organics class action lawsuit overview:
- Who: Plaintiffs Stephanie Williams, Georgina Gomes and Krista Gillette filed a class action lawsuit against Mielle Organics LLC and The Procter & Gamble Co.
- Why: Williams, Gomes and Gillette claim Mielle Organics failed to disclose its rosemary mint hair care products may cause hair loss and other injuries.
- Where: The class action lawsuit was filed in Illinois federal court.
Mielle Organics rosemary mint hair care products contain ingredients that cause hair loss and other injuries, a new class action lawsuit alleges.
Plaintiff’s Stephanie Williams, Georgina Gomes and Krista Gillette’s class action lawsuit claims Mielle Organics — owned by The Procter & Gamble Co. — misrepresented the rosemary mint hair care products as safe.
Williams, Gomes and Gillette argue Mielle Organics also failed to disclose the alleged dangers associated with using its rosemary mint hair care products.
“The products contain ingredients that cause and have caused hair loss and other injuries in its users, including plaintiffs and those in the proposed class,” the Mielle Organics class action says.
The plaintiffs want to represent a nationwide class of consumers who purchased Mielle Organics rosemary mint hair care products for personal or household use.
The group also wants to represent subclasses of consumers who purchased the products for personal or household use in the states of California, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York and Washington.
Mielle Organics failed to adequately test rosemary mint hair care products, class action claims
Williams, Gomes and Gillette argue Mielle Organics must have failed to adequately test their rosemary mint hair care products, as they would have discovered they contained ingredients that cause hair loss, making them “ineligible for distribution.”
“Accordingly, (Mielle Organics) knowingly, or at least negligently, introduced harmful and/or misbranded Products into the U.S. market,” the class action says.
The plaintiffs claim Mielle Organics and Procter & Gamble are guilty of fraud and unjust enrichment and violating state consumer fraud acts.
They demand a jury trial and request declaratory and injunctive relief and an award of compensatory, statutory and punitive damages for themselves and all class members.
A consumer filed a similar class action lawsuit against Mielle Organics last month over claims the company’s Rosemary Mint Scalp & Strengthening Hair Oil causes hair loss.

My wife had hair loss from the rosemary mint shampoo, I did not. However, I just got the pomade ‘scalp and hair quencher’ and developed pretty bad hives on my scalp after a few days. Now of course we’re stuck with crap we can’t use.
I have been using this hair growth it has taken it out.
One been using the Rosmary Mint products for about a month now, & my haor has been falling out in clumps daily s8nce 8ve started using it. Was wondering why it was happening & decided to look up anything about it, come to find out there’s a lawsuit going on about it! NO wonder!
Everytime i would wash. My hair with rosemary mint shampoo. I was noticing my hair coming out by the handfuls..I did not know why this was happening ..I looked up mielle products and learned of a lawsuit that was going on for this exact reason of hair loss.
I have a lot of curly hair and used this product to regrow some areas and thicken up the texture. Ever since I used it on my temples and scalp, my hair has thinned significantly and bald spots have formed on my temple. Horrible product that CAUSES hair loss, instead of treating it as claimed.
My relative wasusing mielle products for awhile and has been experiencing hair loss. Every time she has beeen trying to get it back healthy and restored just for it to fall out.
I’ve used the rosemary mint shampoo conditioner and curl defining mousse. My hair has gotten so completely damaged since using it. The breakage, split ends, are similar to someone who is awful to their hair and never takes care of it. My hair was finally so completely healthy and then out nowhere it’s just become atrocious. A big trim/cut didn’t help I’m about to have to cut off my 2yrs of growth/length to get it back healthy. I thought it was something I did until someone told me about

My daughter has experienced major hair loss on the crown of her head within a week of using the hair oil. August 2025. She will be seeing her physician ASAP!
I have suffered hair loss from their products as well. I used all of their rosemary hair care products. I still have to bottles of stuff. I went to order a new bottle of rosemary hair oil, and Amazon said that it had been removed. I went and looked and saw that they have a lawsuit. I was wondering why, no matter what I did, my hair was falling out. This is really sad, they don’t understand the amount of distress this gives women! Our hair is our crown, and when we are balding from products that state that it’s alnatural or organic, is very traumatic.
