Schwarzkopf Hair Mousse Recalled Over Explosion Risk

The product in question is Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ Grip Extra Strong Mousse (6.76 fl oz / 200 mL).

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a recall notice after parent company Henkel Corporation voluntarily recalled specific batches. A packaging defect in the aluminum cans can cause the product to leak while under pressure, creating a risk that the aerosol can could burst or explode.
