I use the spray NS over the most detailed henna, paint on over the
simpler stuff. I find the light coat that I get with the spray much
easier to remove than the paint on.
When I steamed, my spray NS came off 90% in one go, and what few
scraps were left, came off by rubbing in oil.

If NS gives you a headache, don't use it, or stay really well
ventilated. The spray NS won't be any better than the paint on for
stench. I have problems with latex making my lines fuzz, too ......

There may not be a perfect sealer for henna available yet.
But .... latex over NS is quite good! Excellent preservation of
detail, and the latex takes all the NS when you peal it back!

The pictures I've posted on the forum will give you some notion of
what NS does for me in terms of preservation of detail underneath an
overnight wrap (even when walked on). I can't say whether my results
are good enough for you or not. That's your judgement call.
