Why is hairspray bad for the earth-how much damage does it do?!?

Question

I scrunch my hair like twice a week maybe? I love the earth and do my best to recycle,reuse and renew or w.e the three rs are lol. I love animals therefore have to think of the earth they share too. What specifically does hairspray do? Is it the gas?

Answer 1

chlorofloralcarbons

Answer 2

because it is an airasol and that destroys the ozone

Answer 3

It used to have CFC (cloroflorocarbons) in it..but if you live in the US chances are it no longer has these harmful chemicals in it as they have outlawed it being used in these types of products.

As a hairstylist, I can understand your use of hairsrpay!  Keep in mind that only the aerosol variety poses a threat to our environment.  The gas in the cans is filtered ozone; the more we put in cans of spray,  the less there is in the air to protect us.  I urge you to try and switch to a non-aerosol pump.  I would be happy to recommend some great ones.  Change is always hard but you will get used to it in no time!
