Lululemon is voluntarily recalling more than 300,000 women's tops due to an unsafe drawstring which has been causing some injuries.

It turns out the drawstring is on many of Lululemon's hoodies, jackets, pullovers, wraps and tunics. Some of these items contain an elastic draw cord that has hard metal or plastic ends, Fox News reports. The cord is typically in the hood or around the neck area and people are finding out the hard way that if the cord is pulled or caught on something, it can snap back pretty hard once it is released, impacting the face area.

About 133,000 of Lululemon women's tops in the United States and 185,000 in Canada are being recalled. Several varieties of women's tops in many different styles and colors contained the cord. These items cost anywhere from $75 to $260.

On Thursday, regulators made the announcement that anybody who owns the tops containing the cords should either remove the cord or ask Lululemon to replace the cord with a non-elastic one, The Associated Press reports.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission made the decision to recall the items after seven people reported face or eye injuries due to the sudden release of the cord.

This isn't the first time the yoga and athletic wear company has had to recall an item. In 2013, the company's famous "hot pant" yoga pant was quickly taken off the shelves after customers complained about the new material being "too sheer." The company offered all customers refunds, fixed the problem, restocked its inventory and fired its top product executives for the mistake.

Lululemon has issued an "important saftey notice" on its website letting customers know which products contain the drawstring as well as what to do if you need a replacement cord.
