Here's why:
* Hair spray is not flammable. The alcohol and polymers in hair spray are not flammable enough to ignite with typical heat sources.
* Hair spray is designed to be safe. Hairspray manufacturers go through rigorous testing to ensure their products are safe for use on human hair.
However, it's important to note that:
* Overusing hairspray can cause damage. Excessive use of hairspray can lead to dryness, breakage, and buildup on the scalp.
* Using hairspray near heat can cause damage. Using hairspray while blow drying or styling with hot tools can cause the hairspray to melt and stick, potentially damaging the hair.
Therefore, use hairspray in moderation, and avoid using it near heat to prevent potential damage.
