She gets instant color from the color guide that she absolutley loves, but claims it all comes off in the tub. She claims none of the color stays on. I really didn't know if taking a bath would hinder the results or not. Soaking in water verses constant water running on you I wouldn't think would make that much difference, but thanks for the informative info. I did use a 9% on her, so I may try a higher % and try the pre tan exfoliation prep spray, too. She has pretty dry skin. Thanks ecc30 for some good feedback.......always helps to be helpful to others :)

Re: Solution coming off in the bath?

Be careful though, if you go too high % then the poor womans going to look orange!! only go darker if she's already quite dark skinned.

I think she had something on her skin like the others said, i have had a case where somebody told me she had used a very good exfoliator and so she didnt want the pre tan wipe. unfortunately i had to go back because it just went patchy after she had showered, i've since always insisted that people use the wipes, never had a problem since. Also, bath products with lots of oils in can bring the tan off, things like dove are a big culprit. and obviously leaving it long enough, and not using exfoliators afterwards and not rubbing with the towel.
Hope it works out for you! :o)

That's the problem with thew world today, they have a pill for everything. Whatever happened to dealing with reality?

What makes her and you think that "fake" isn't going to wash off if you soak?

I wasn't being negative, just realistic. Start handling the truth instead of just demanding what you want to hear.

Re: Solution coming off in the bath?

I would recommend a good tan extender. I am so hard on my spray tan and I work out and I am in the pool a couple times a week and my tan lasts about a week with no blotchiness and I think that it is the extender that really helps to prolong my tan.

Re: Solution coming off in the bath?

This site can always be fun for little laugh here and there.

There are some really good tips and points of knowledge in this thread and I would say first thing is you need to see her skin 1 or 2 days after you spray her. Is she a new customer to being sprayed? If so chances are your spray developed but not as dark as the cosmetic bronzer so she "assumed" it didn't work. or.........

It is possible that DHA just does not jive with her skin type. Rare but does happen. Every now and again I will run into a salon owner who states "no matter what I use on this one client of mine" the liquid does not take and develope.

Things that make you go Hummmmm?????

Re: Solution coming off in the bath?

Ask her how she prepares her skin for tanning. Maybe she is using to harsh of an exfoliant. Maybe she's putting on moisturizers before her tan. I had a woman once complain about how her legs came out. After questioning her I found she had put on baby oil before het tan.
