sunscreen spray for baby's hair?

I'm looking for something to put on LO's head while we're out in the sun.  She *hates* (HATES!) her hat and tries to rip it off her head every chance she can get.  So, I'm resorting to finding something to spray on her fine hair.

I see a brand called Baby Blanket scalp sunscreen -- have any of you tried that?  Or do you have any other suggestions?  Thanks!!

    the experts are saying sprays are not safe because babies breathe them in.  I would just lather my hands rub on the lotion then brush the hair.

    As the mother of an irish baby with very little hair, I feel your pain.  G has gotten a little better about wearing hats this summer but last year it was a constant battle. 

    I think the aerosoles are the biggest concern for inhaling (and honestly, if you are doing it above their head, I think the risk is low....AND sum damage is definitely more dangerous) BUT, I would try to find a pump style sunscreen if you can....and I don't think it is the end of the world if it is for adults opposed to babies.  Maybe I'm being a crappy mom but I am just so much more worried about sun damage.  I cannot fathom the greasy mess if you used a lotion.
