So nervous! spray tanning my 1st client tomorrow

hello! just hoping to get some tips,advice for tomorrow. im tanninng my first client and a little nervous. i only practiced on 2 people and it turned out ok. i only had 10% so it looked a little orange on the lighter skin friend and myslef.also had the splattering effect at first,not sure if it was because the setting was off or not. i have 8.5% that im using tomorrow so im hoping it will be better. also i didnt have a extraction fan or tent when i did it. im going to go buy some last min supplies tonight. the biggest reason i am a little un prepared is because im broke and am doing my best with what i have. im just hoping it turns out good enough to wear i make enough money to order some more supplies i need. like a lighter solution (5%) and maybe some more stuff.. i dont know.. i live on a military base and im hoping that they just wont be too picky :) help!!! thanks for reading

me thinks your just suffering from nerves...first paying customer..right??

Just remember they are coming to you and assume you know what your doing...so don't give anything away...be positive and seemingly the one in controll...get the first few under your belt and you will be away spraying everyone and anything that will part with the bucks.

Good luck and let us know how you got on ;0))

Re: So nervous! spray tanning my 1st client tomorrow

Thank you for the replys! So far I have tanned 6 people this week, and so far it has gone good, no one has complained and have got a few emails back from people saying they love their tan! so i think im on the road to success! :) lol.. well i know its gonna still be a bumpy road ahead but I have confidence and as long as i can keep learning and improving then I think i'll be fine. I really am trying to get it to where I can not waste solution and get a really even spray. Right now I'm using the ocean 8.5 on everyone! lol I'm wanting to order a lighter one like a 5 or 6%... to have on hand...
Yea I did look on the sunless section and there was alot of info so im thrilled about that!
