higher 966 Posted June 28, 2016 Anyone ever get a spray tan while fat or with loose skin? Did you have to lift your skin up for the technician? I don't know why I have anxiety about getting a spray tan right now but figured this is the right place to ask! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

higher 966 Posted June 28, 2016 I hope we get a real answer too. I don't even need my stomach to be tan, I won't be wearing a bikini. Just want my arms and legs etc to get a good glow before I travel. But was always scared to try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisredjeep 357 Posted June 29, 2016 I can imagine the look on the sprayers face if she had to spray me ! More wrinkles than a Shar Pei dog that's me ! I think if I had it done I would have to wear the swimming costume and let them spray arms leg back etc but not the Great White Belly! Good luck anyway 1 Syaniya reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That said, I have been spray tanned while I was heavy and I didn't lift anything up. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Montereymer 2 Posted September 26, 2016 Yes, I have had a full Monty spray tan several times since my weight loss began. I do hold up my apron and saggy boobs and even make sure the technician gets between the legs. The technicians have seen it all so, despite my normal bouts of modesty, I have learned to hold my breath and just go for it. I'm a perfectionist so, I don't want any lines or white Patches. If I find one, out comes the tanning lotion. Good luck!! Stand there in the buff with pride. 2 Ms. Brightside and ShinyLady reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
higher 966 Posted November 10, 2016 Yeah so I finally did this last night. I left for a tropical vacation this morning and I have a sexy new bathing suit with lots of cut-outs on the abdomen and it did not look cute with my stomach peeking out 3 shades whiter than the rest of me so I went for it. I have no idea what I was so worried about. Yes, I'm way thinner than when I started this thread but I have a small stomach overhang stil. I didn't move it out of the way or anything. The technician just sprayed me like it was no big deal, because t wasn't a big deal obviously she sprays naked people with all kinds of bodies all day long! It felt really good and I look cute with a nice glow. NSV! 1 Ms. Brightside reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hmills653 365 Posted March 24, 2017 I had a spray tan and she had me keep my panties on so they covered my belly. I felt awkward enough standing half naked in front of someone but it was part of a spa package from my husband as a gift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shawnak911 60 Posted March 24, 2017 I'm so glad you did it! They see people all day with better bodies and worse bodies. They really don't care. And if you said you lost x amount of pounds she'd probably be like "go girl!" 1 RJrocks reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
