Sunless Tanning
 

Has anyone tried this? I'm thinking about going and getting it done but im scared that I will turn orange hahaha. I have a friend that did it a few years ago and she turned orange but she is really pale and was thinking it may be a little different for me.

So who has done this or do you know anyone who has done this????

Until you skin gets used to it you will turn an oranish gold color for just a couple of days. Once your skin gets accustomed to it you'll just turn a goldish color for a few hours and then tan.

Everyone I've ever seen try it has turned orange......so I had to try it...yup....orange.

You've gotta get your skin used to it numbnuts good buddy. :)

Allison, after doing it for a month you will really like the results. Turns into a dark tan almost instantly.

Ok well here is my delima......I was just contacted by a photgrapher that wants me to do some protfolio shots for him on Thursday in Waco and this weekend in Plano. I have not tanned (in a tanning bed) in probably a year, im not pale or light but I just wanted something to add a little more color and some what fast before Thursday.

SoI guess this is out of the question. Anyone have any other tricks lol.

Only do 10 minutes in a regualar bed two days before.

How come you know more about tanning than the girls on this site?



Sorry for ruining your thread, Allison.... :mum:

I have never tried it myself but I do know that it will rub off on bed sheets

I always tan before a vacation, I would do what DD said maybe every day for 10 minutes. I tried the spray tan and I did not turn orange but wanted the UV protection and it has none.

Thank You. I was thinking of just going today and maybe tomorrow but because it has been so long since I have tanned I was worried I would burn my butt lol. And for the record I was being serious about burning my butt thats always the first place to burn haha.:moon::wack:

Find a salon that does the airbrush/spray on tans. They won't turn you orange and they last 1 - 2 weeks depending on how often you shower.

Well having it done at a salon is really what I ment. I'm still a little scared because the friend of mine who got it done was in a salon. I suppose alot may have to do with your skin color.

Well he just emailed me and said he would be able to do it next week also so I think I'm just going to wait till then. Maybe I will give the sunless tan a shot since I now have more time to work with.

Because my ex-wife spent about $300/month on the crap and had tried every single method possible. :madd:

Sometimes yes and sometimes no. Alot of the time for a portfolio shoot you(I) do my own, some photographers though require a pro do it.



Most of the after shots that you see are "touchups" done by the photographer and most photographers dont want to spend that much time on a photo unless it is a star ($$$$$). Most of the cover up types from revlon are alot of money and usually come in like a little 1.7oz bottle lol. By the time you are done buying 10 bottles you could have had a sunless tan done by a pro.

I have found alot of places online that claim "you wont look orange" but Im kinda scared to buy a $30 bottle and look like a pumpkin lol.

Or even look like theses people hahahaha
Barstool Sports: New Jersey Freakshows

looks like they all got the same hairdresser....

Isnt that the same person YOU go to? :w2:

He, he, at least I need one.....lol lol lol And...yes!!:up:

lol


I do my own. :dd:

It shows lol lol lol

Yep :) Cost's me far less than yours. :ha: :dd:

I tried the Magic Tan a couple of years ago and had horrible results. I looked like a darn carrot!!
Do some calling around and see if anyone in your area does the airbrush tanning. I've always had really good results with that and I'm super pale. And they can do a second coat where you would naturally be darker (top of arms, shoulders) so it looks really natural. It has never turned me orange or streaked or got funky in any way. It's a bit more pricey, but it's no worries tanning - no burning, no orange and so streaks.

Good Luck!!

how much do you pay for the airbrush? Im trying to get some different prices from people to see what a good price is for a good job.

lmao! thanks for the jersey freak show link,
got a real good laugh out of them orange monkeys.

Last time I went in, I paid $85. It was totally worth it though. I went to another place and only paid $40, and I definately got what I paid for. Most places will give you references though, and both places I've been have had before and after photos of their work. One thing you have to watch out for though is some places get you in the door with super cheap airbrushing prices, but then soak you for barrier creams. By the time you are done, the $30 airbrush they advertise ends up being $75. Look for something all inclusive.

I d rather just spend $1200.00 , fly to either Hawaii, Cuba or Cancun.........go for a week, come back nice and bronze.. you can get some last min deals on flights too, cheap,, :U:

haha you pay and Ill go with you...heck yo pay for everyone and we can have a Diesel Bombers meet!!!!!!!!!!

lol



Keep in mind that you will have to do this about once a week to keep the tan up all summer. :D

Or we could open up a diesel shop somewhere warm and just live the dream!

Houston? I'm working on it. :)

Too many dealer already in TX,

How is the weather in Hawaii this time of year, I get a ton of calls for diesel performance products over there and no one has set up shop yet.

I dont want to be a dealer...truck builder and machining.

I will take care of the dealer part, the girls can do the paper work and you can do the truck building and machining.


What do ya say girls :deal:

SWEET!!! :up2:


Well...we might want them to wear bikini's and work up front. I'll hire some MBA's to take care of accounting and paperwork. :)

LMAO... good point, we can have them wear leis

lol

How much will we get $$$$$$$$$$. :dm:

I think they are just going to give us time off to go tan instead of money.

Not a bad deal.....:deal:

hmmm well we can negotiate something im sure.......:humm::bb:

you know if you just layed in a tanning bed once in the early morning and once in the evening for about 10 minutes each, use a good bronzer and you should be good and tanned in a few days, if you skin already has a good tan and is even it will just darken it up, my mom has a a tanning bed at the hair salon she owns, she has all the expensive tanning lotion and creams and all that crap, i just get burned and it turns brown over night, my arms and neck are a deep brown within 2 weeks of summer starting, ill probably be black when i get back from iraq......
