No you shoudnt - gas cannisters assuming it is a Camping Gaz one or similar are not designed for being at 6000 feet the pressure of which the plane is set to.
The old tickets for planes use to have a specific warning on the back page not to pack them - and the Camping Gaz logo was often used - was that advertising.....
In fact, there was an incident on a PIA plane carrying pilgrims to the Hadj in Saudi when someone tried to use a stove on the plane to make tea and whooomph up went the flame and there was a fire aboard. Not suggesting that you intend using your brush...
CG make special cartridges and cannisters for mountaineers at high altitude.

ICAO regulations - yes no question you can definitely take a hydrocarbon powered hair curler. It has to have the safety catch over the heating element (which is would as it`s enclosed in plastic) and you can`t take spare cartridges. As far as the dangerous goods regs are concerned it can be taken in carry-on or hold luggage but can`t be used in flight. I`m not sure how it equates with the liquids policy though so I would stick it in the hold just to be sure.
Although this is from easy jet it's standard carrier regulations...

They'll probably let you carry it .. but not refills.
You have to draw the line somewhere .. but a refill cylinder could easily be made into an explosive device .. not a problem in itself on the aircraft, so long as handled and stored correctly.
Cigarette lighters the same gas .. and similar storage capacity.

if you must take it then seperate the gas cylinder from the actual hot brush and wrap the cylinder in plastic bag in case it leaks on your clothes. All the same I am glad I am not flying on your plane just in case ...... it exploded.
