FDA Recall: Schwarzkopf Professional Osis Grip Extra Strong Mousse (Explosion Hazard)
Henkel Corp. has announced a nationwide recall of Schwarzkopf Professional Osis Grip Extra Strong Mousse (6.76 fl oz / 200 ml) after discovering that some aluminum cans can leak propellant and potentially explode. Customers in 12 U.S. states should stop using the affected lots immediately and return them for a full refund.
Why Schwarzkopf Professional Osis Grip Mousse Was Recalled
Henkel received one consumer complaint and two salon reports of leaking cans. Because the product is stored under pressure, a leak can weaken the container and cause an explosion, which has already resulted in a minor hand injury. No serious injuries have been reported.
