: Thanks to you for the feed back.Sounds like you use both. If youre doing alot of people though it seems that would take forever. When you wrap on your self is it NS spray ,latex -then the tissue plastic mummy wrap over all of it. I found some spray and its still stinky but maybe a little better in certain respects such as exposure time, amount need. Hopefully in an outside venue I may be able to withstand it. I will experiment yet again in the name of the art of Mehndi!(god only knows what we are willing to try) Maybe Ill go back to sending people off with lemon/sugar goo to smear on themselves.Do you use olive or baby oil with mineral oil in it for removal. Can I just say to you that your most recent photos have just blown me away. I made my husband and kids come up and check out your work.Beautiful color. Pristine detail.You are always an inspiration. In gratitude. Theadora,Mehndi Muse 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.
