    Well, you’re going to have to do what the rest of us do, experiment.

    Further to what Belassi said (and to save you some timewasting) I’m doubtful that the formula given is complete. There is no emulsifier listed and this important in a product with silicones and water.

    Note that benzyl salicylate is part of the perfume and performs no active function in a hair spray.
