Abstract:

A hair spray resin compositon is provided herein which is capable of delivering a fine finishing mist at a high resin solids level. The composition is substantially moisture resistant, provides a stiff resin film having excellent hair holding power, and has a relatively low concentration of volatile organic compounds therein. The composition of the invention attains its unique attributes by including a predetermined blend of at least two hair spray resins, one being a relatively high molecular weight resin, and the other resin having a relatively low molecular weight. The latter resin is present in the composition in a substantially greater proportion than the higher molecular weight resin.
