Uncomfortable Customers?

angiecharm · 03-28-2007, 10:23 AM

I've just started up my spray tanning and I've been talking to people about it alot lately and some of the feedback I've gotten is alot of people don't want me to see their body.
"you mean you get to see my Fat Body" " I don't think so!"

How am I suppose to respond to things said like that?
I want people to feel comfortable with me. I let them know that everything's done in a professional manner and everythings completely confidential.
any ideas?
How do you handle customers like that?

Tell them you see their fat body now, their clothes arent hiding anything! LOL

I am so kidding, just remind them how great they will feel after and it actually will make them feel thinner when they are done. You are a professional, and you've seen it all.

Tell them I've sprayed people much bigger and grosser than you, nothing to worry about.

Tell them you're more worried about their odor.

we tell them the last thing we are looking at is your excess oz's. We are spending way to much time concertrating on getting you a wonderful even tan, to even notice.

As a rather large woman -(dead thyroid- XXXXX chemo) I know I just feel better tan. Tell them you are sure the result will be worth the brief moment of being uncomfortable. I personally think tan looks thinner.

Hope this helps ya
