The woman claimed it ruined her social life. The judge dismissed the case, even though the woman said the shock has her on antidepressants. “I was mentally and physically in shock,” Charlotte Feeney states in court docu ments. “I was sick to my stomach, I had headaches, I don’t like myself, I stay home more than ever in my life, I wear hats most of the time.” She also said that she misses the attention and that the “naturally blonde” hair she was attempting to dye will never be the same hue again. She should have first done a strand test like the package suggests, L’Oreal stated. NOTED.
