The recipe I use is just 1 C. of hot water with 1 teaspoon of sugar dissolved in a spray bottle. Sometimes I add a couple of drops of EO's that I have on hand.
Works great, DD and I are both Multiple Chemical Sensitive.
I think the spray will dry quicker if you get a finer spray head on your bottle, but obviously you will need to make sure that you strain the liquid as the person above suggested, through cheese cloth or nylon, if you are going to be spraying it through a fine spray head.
1 Cup Tomato Juice
1 tsp. sugar
4 cups boiling hot water
4.0 grams of gelatin
2.99 grams of zinc oxide
1 tsp sugar
a cup of lemon juice
1 tablespoon of sugar
70% of Hot boiling water.
Add any food coloring and mix it all together and it will be the color you wished for.

For those of you who have recommended the sugar and water combination, I would be extremely careful. A friend tried that and it attracted wasps like crazy. Sorry, I wish I could use it too but I don't dare. I am allergic to bees so no sugar water for me. I hope this helps someone.
This homemade hairspray really works and doesn't polute the atmosphere or put toxic chemicals on your hair. Just chop 1 lemon (or orange for dry hair) and place in a pot with 2 cups water. Boil down by half. Cool, strain, and place liquid in a spray bottle. Add 1/8 cup (1 oz.) rubbing alcohol. Store up to a month un-refrigerated, or put in refrigerator for longer. You can omit the rubbing alcohol if stored in the fridge. Lasts about 2 weeks. Shake a little before using.
