Don't most hairsprays use hydrocarbons as propellant?

Well, either alcohol or hydrocarbons would make a decent flamethrower.

I had my bases covered, I had both hairspray (yeah, yeah) as well as cologne (which to my naive knowledge is alcohol based). I didn't realize that hairspray wasn't alcohol based, but my amateur experiences with potato guns indicated it's propensity for flammability and explosiveness :).
