Do not always think because you tried a solution and saw orange that it is a bad juice. Usally when someone turns orange from juice it s because a) Too Strong of a formula on to light of a skin type. or 2) Too Much Juice was sprayed on the body.

You will need to really learn skin typing of your clients and then KNOW YOUR SOLUTIONS as far as which juice goes on to WHAT SKIN TYPE. Once you have this down you will NEVER turn a client orange.

Never think more juice means darker skin. Totally False.

Good Luck and remember.......... Practice - Practice - Practice

Get to work

If you want to get hands on training talk to Sonomatanning. She has a training center in California and also travels around the country to do training.

Hey SunPerf I get solution from Elite TAN & THE OWNER THAT MAKES THE solution she is in competition herself she makes everyday solution & has competition solution so u could go to her website & found out www.elite-tan.com I love the everyday solution ...

WiLLy-NiLLy · 04-17-2009, 12:14 AM

abtan..... I would be happy to answer all of your questions relating to solutions and machines so if you would like that shoot me a e-mail to thomas@vippremiumblends.com I would be glad to do it!

SunPerf..... Spraying Body Builders is a whole other ballgame. Most people working that circuit usally spray the competitors 2 times. Alot of the "Sprayers" travel to the show for their clients. They will hit them the night b4 the competition and then the morning of.

Look at Jan Tana & Pro Tan for your Solutions. They are the Best in the field for body building. Normal Airbrush Tanning Solution is not dark enough for the body builders. You wouldn't want to wear a Body Building formula to work! LOL I Promise you! *smile*

Thanks everyone for the info on competition spraying. I have a few people in my area that have asked me if I would consider doing it but I really didnt know where to start with solution since I know how dark they like the results. Thanks again, the info was very helpful!

ANYTHING WILL HELP THANKS!!

Did you get an HLVP or Airbrush system? I have tried several solutions over the past 10 yrs and so far my favorites are:

3 solutions from Biddiscomb labs,
http://www.shopbiddiscombe.com/sunle...tions_s/20.htm
about $80 for a half gallon (pretty pricey!)
EVO (10%DHA) (Legacy 12% DHA + Eurythlose) 305

South Seas : PARABEN FREE*** they carry body builders formulas too
http://www.southseasskincare.com/Tanning_Systems.asp
affordable and good price $129 per gallon GREAT golden brown color not a ton of bronzer in the initial spray which makes the day after look really natural, GREAT retail: They have shimmer mist to add to you gun and they have a tan in a can called Tahitian mist which you can sell for touch ups and a product called UH OH which is a microderm scrub to remove self tanner, and it works.

I also Like Aviva labs 10%. It is very much like south seas and is $51. for a 1/2 gallon.
