I want a spray tan...But, I'm really self consious



Recommended Posts

I am really wanting to get a spray tan today because I have a wedding to go to on Saturday and I am wearing a dress (I have not worn one in a long time!) so I want my legs to be tan.

They spray the tan on you by a person, not standing in the box...so I feel like really self consious. Are the used to seeing all types of body shapes/sizes? I'm sure they are right? not just skinny minnies tan right?

Please help ease my nerves...or let me know if I am right and am going to be very uncomfortable!

Thanks!

You need to find a mystic tan booth - they're completely automatic. There's nobody spraying you.

I've found it gives great results too, perfectly even. I'm saving money all winter, so that I can have one every week this summer!

Mystic is the only one in Australia, but I think California Tan has them too? Google it.

If I'm going to have a spray tan, I want it all over, just becuase but really, if its for a wedding and you dont have time to get to an auto booth, you could wear shorts and a tank top and justs slip the straps off your shoulders - get your arms, legs, chest and face done, the bits that show and not expose yourself at all.

I own a tanning salon and although I don't personally do the airbrush, I can tell you that they have seen everything, so don't worry about it - for the most part, they are professionals.

If you want, you can email me at amyfrets@me.com and tell me where you are located. I will let you know if I have any salon owner friends around your area.

In my salon we have the Magic Tan, which is a spray booth and I would put it up against an airbrush tan any day. With the Mystic Tan, or Magic Tan or Versa Spa you are in the room by yourself.

Good luck and let me know if I can help. :thumbdown:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
