Yes, I remember you telling me that a while back. My concern is that the hairspray may set too quickly, though. I have to fiddle with the airbridge and couplers to get it lined up properly, and that sometimes takes a few minutes to get it right. So how much time do I have, or is that dependent on the brand of hairspray I steal from Connie? Some of the stuff she has is pretty potent stuff!
