Rep Power: 0 ![]() | Is it possible to hide tan lines when spray tanning??!! Hi everyone :) I have had lots of positive feedback from my spray tanned clients over the past few months in my new business. The one thing I have had people ask me is if I can blend their tan lines to match there tanned skin. I have an HVLP system which works great for even coverage and I usually do a second lighter coat over pale areas ie. upper thighs/arms which turns out great. It's not really possible to hide tan lines such as sunglass marks, sandal marks or shoulder strap marks is it?? I know that it is likely to blend abit more when it's all tanned but there will obviously still be a difference. Does anyone have any tips?? It's just that I've had a few people say this to me and of course I want to help them so they come back to me!! I know this is abit of a silly question.. just like some advice :) Thankyou :) Mel @ Sugar Spritz |

Turn the front of you gun ( the one that you move so you can change from a vertical to a horizontal spray) at a diagonal. Turn the amount of spray way down in the back. You need to spray in a circular motion like you do with an airbrush . Go very slow! You might need to adjust the ring in the front (the one that holds the front on ) Practice on a card board box with water. |

They were pretty cheap at walmart. I've used them on several occasions when my tan tent was just too large for their space. I even use them when I use the tent. One goes just otside the tent on the floor, the other goes at the back underneath the fan. |

I also found a tent on Ebay for $49.99 + $20 shipping, but it was horrible it barely stood up & was not made for spray tanning . It wasn't even the one in the picture that they sent me. I am in a dispute with them through PayPal. So be careful. Sonoma Tanning is on this forum, so you can search in under Member List. Or try doing a search for Sonoma Tanning on the internet. If you are not interested in hers, PM me, I have a great tent that is blue, lets in more light & it doesn't turn brown from the overspray!! It's jus tthat the one Sonoma sells is roomier. | |

Ok guys when you use a tent to spray people at parties, where do you set the tent up at, a seperate bedroom... away from the party? I figure in a seperate room considering some people might like to be sprayed topless. |
