Just another question that I’m sure has been posted before, but just too lazy to look

Okay when the customer is showering for the spray tan is it better to shower to shower right before they come in or a several hours before. The reason I’m asking, I’m not sure if it’s the customer or the solution but it seems that when I use Norvell the customer has more runs and not as much at all when using AG solution. Not sure if it was the customer or the solution.[/font]

Doesn't matter when they shower....as long as they are dry.

We used to recommend they shower right before they come in if they can. You really don't want natural oils, makeup or even deodorant on the skin. It will all act as a barrier. Of course they have the option to wash up a little at the salon.

I used to use Norvell solution as one of the solution and had same problem, I would say the viscosity of both solutions are different; Norvell is more thinner so you may want to turn down the spray gun to make sure how much solution is coming out.

also showering on the day of the sunless tanning is better , always ask them what product they used and make a note of that but above all we have made sure we use pre tan prep spray on each and every client ,it only takes few minutes, as we use the same spry machine to spray the prep spray and wait few second until it dry , you have choice to wipe off the skin surface or you can let them dry, it is one additional step but well worth it as this removes the oils, any film formed from other products like lotion , cream and this gives you a clean skin to work with.
though one suggestion please don't get in to pre tan prep spray adjust the pH of the skin, that is not the case ,ask for studies from any company that claims that.

Sorry I don't have exact answer for you but hope this helps a bit
