Abstract
A clear hair spray composition exhibiting low drying times and low tack during use consisting essentially of, by weight of the composition, (a) 0-10% of a fixative resin that is a linear homopolymer or random copolymer including a monomer selected from the group consisting of a vinyl monomer and an acrylate monomer, (b) 0.01-10% of a hydrolyzed crosslinked maleic anhydride-C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl vinyl ether copolymer, (c) 10-99.99% water, and (d) 0-80% alcohol.
