Redken 5th Avenue NYC Guts Spray Mousse Foam
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The aerosol container's liner can corrode over time, posing a risk of the cans rupturing and expelling its contents.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
