A popular hairstyling mousse sold to salons and consumers in multiple states is being recalled over a potential explosion hazard.
Henkel Corporation is voluntarily recalling certain 6.76-ounce cans of Schwarzkopf Professional Osis Grip Extra Strong Mousse, according to an Aug. 11 notice posted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The Germany-based company said a “potential packaging issue” could allow the product to leak from the aluminum cans while under pressure, creating an explosion hazard.
