yeah i go to school for jewelry design...and in my hair i use hairspray...either freeze it with the purple writing on the can...or pump it up gold...it will stay up a long ass fucking time if you do it right.
At aboutu 6 inches, mine was takin me an hour, and it could leave it up for about a week, but because it's teh tri hawk, every other day or so, i'd have to some repairs with the hairspray from sleeping damage.
