Aerosol Hairspray Cans Hairsprays may be wonderful for keeping your hair style in place, but some hairsprays are highly inflammable. Never use them around flames or while smoking. The vapors could ignite and cause a fire. Also, avoid overexposure to the hairspray mist.

And when that aerosol can is empty, don't throw it down the incinerator where it might explode. Discard the can in a separate trash container.
