Probably not. There may be some small companies in developing countries still using CFCs but all major countries have phased them out by the end of last century. Hairsprays have other chemicals which may not be good for the atmosphere either. We may have to wait and see.

Can rain demolish CFCs?
CFCs are neither soluble in water or reactive with it. Rain has no impact on CFCs
What makes it possible for CFCs to travel up to the ozone layer and destroy ozone?
CFCs are swirled around the world by the global winds. This can take up to ten years for them to reach the lower stratosphere but when there they are still effective at destroying ozone. CFCs in fact have a lifespan in the atmosphere of between 50 and 75 years.
What substitutes for CFCs came into being after scientists discovered that CFCs were harming the atmosphere?
Replacements for CFCs (dependding on use) included:HCFCsNitrogenAirPropane
Are cfcs still depleting the ozone layer?
The CFC's are and willa lways deplete ozone layer.These chemicals react with ozone to decompose and deplete it.
Are CFCs are synthetic chemicals?
no.
Why is hairspray bad for the environment?
Many hairsprays (and other products which spray something) use compounds called chlorofluorocarbons, CFCs, as the pressuriser. These chemicals when released into the atmosphere can produce chlorine, which destroys ozone. Ozone is rather necesssary for the continuation of life on Earth, so hairsprays are bad for the environment.
Whats the difference between CFC and HCFC refrigerates?
you may have better luck getting an answer in the sciences category. I know that cfcs are now banned from hairsprays, etc. and have been replaced by hcfcs, which are 10% better for the environment.
Are CFCs still used?
no cfc's are not in use anymore because they damage the enviroment.
How does aerosol have an effect on global warming?
Many hairsprays contain CFCs witch stands for chrolo flora carbonates. When the spray is sprayed the CFCs escape from the can and in the atmosphere in 20 years. It dissolves the cover of the ozone that the earth has witch stops blocking the sun and creates holes in the ozone layer.
Can rain demolish CFCs?
CFCs are neither soluble in water or reactive with it. Rain has no impact on CFCs
How can you get out your hairsprays out of your hair when is dry?
Comb it out with a wet comb.
Can you take hairspray on planes?
No hairsprays are not allowed on the plane.
Does all hairspray have alcohol?
not all hairsprays have alcohol

Are CFCs highly toxic?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are non-toxic.
What substitutes for CFCs came into being after scientists discovered that CFCs were harming the atmosphere?
Replacements for CFCs (dependding on use) included:HCFCsNitrogenAirPropane
How are cfcs released?
CFCs or chlorofluorocarbons are released when a device that holds it is leaking. Also some aerosols release CFCs into the atmosphere.
