Airbrushing Hairy People?

What is the best way to airbrush someone with excessive body hair? Or men with hairy chests and legs?

Sometimes the solution builds up on the hair so i take a blow dryer and blot the hair while i'm drying. Other than that i have no problems.

We have found that towel drying in buff/circular motions helps blend in the color that beads up on those with more hair. We tell everyone to dry off that way though..hairy or not....seems to be the best way to dry off with this solution. Rubbing dry causes streaks, and blotting dry causes the color to lift.

i use an apollo hvlp.... i just spray through the hair and there is just a tiny bit of beading , this will dry by the end of the spray and disapears... no problems!

How do you know when you have sprayed through the hair?

You just spray the customer like normal..

We spray everyone the same way and use the hair drier. This new produce we are using doesn't bead up like the old and what's on the hairs will come off in the shower the next day.
