Tanning....?

Hi, I was considering going in to get a spray tan, but I'm insecure about my body %26amp; don't feel all that comfortable having someone spraying me while I'm in my skivies...ha. Are the spray tans you buy in the store any good? I don't want anything that's orange-fake....could anyone reccommend any specific product I can buy that's good? %26amp; how easy are they to use? thank you.

It is far more uncomfortable for you than the salon staff. They have seen hundreds (if not thousands) of people in the britches (or nothing at all...) They think nothing of it... kinda like your doctor...





I would stay away from self tanners in stores. Esh... those things are just icky... I say just go in and get an air brush tan...





Find a salon that does NOT have the spray on tan by machine (like the Mystic Tan). I work at a tanning salon and we get people that come in to us on a daily basis to fix there spray on tan from the automatic machine. The machines can't tell if you are getting blotchy or orange. They can't make sure it is even or too thin. Air Brush spray tans are amazing!





The only air brush spray tan solution we have found to work the absolute best is by 'California Tan'. So if you call around ask what brand they use. 'Breeze' is a good solution as well.





At the salon I work at, our spray on tan is $39. Just a one time spray last 2 weeks. No one looks orange or funky. You look like you have a sun kissed bronzed tan. Even if you are pale as a marshmallow. It gradually fades away, and you look the same as before. Not spots or funky tan lines. You want to find a salon that takes the time to ask you what you want and are looking for. They should be professional and not seem 'rushed'.





It is worth the money if it is done right. It is not something you want to do a whole lot. If you are looking for a year round tan, try the tanning beds(which only go through the first 3 layers of your skin rather than all 7 with the suns rays).





Before you go in and have it done you will want to shave and exfolite (the night before). Put lotion on the night before (no deoderant). The day of you will NOT want to use any lotion, body sprays or deoderant (they can react with the chemicles in the spray solution and turn you green). The salon staff should give you a special lotion (or barrell cream) to put on your feet and hands to keep them from getting darker than the rest of your body. It won't turn your hair colores (if you dye it) so don't worry. You will want to wear dark loose fitting clothing. You wont be able to shower for 8 hours.





Some tanning salons do have leg tanners. Or you can just use a chair and put your legs in a tanning bed (we have many pregnate women do this)...





Have fun!

I am not sure where you live, but I have tried the mystic tan (turned me orange) and the VersiSpa (great!!). Those two are machines and no one sprays you. I would recommend the VersiSpa all the way!!
Reply:yes! buy mosterizing tanning it works!!!! BEST OF LUCK!
Reply:the store bought ones suck. I kow my friend use to get the spray tans at a place and it was all done by/in a machine/chamber. You just stood in there and rotated and lifted your arms. It was never sprayed on by someone. So maybe you can look into it around where your from.





But stay away from the store bought ones.
