Flowers that may be intended for the hair (6)

I believe the answer is:

sprays

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'flowers that may be intended for the hair' is the definition.
'sprays' can be an answer for 'flowers' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the rest of the definition.

'flowers that may be' is the wordplay.
'flowers' becomes 'spray' (I've seen this before).
'that may be' becomes 's' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'spray'+'s'='SPRAYS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sprays that I've seen before include "Disperse in droplets" , "bunches of flowers" , "Jets of vapour" , "Disperses water in very small drops" , "Sends out liquid in very small drops as through a hose" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
