Has anyone ever had a spray tan?
If so, what did you think?
DH is going for one after work and asked if I wanted to go.
It would be nice to be on vacation and not be totally ghost-like, but with my luck I'd get some weird reaction to it or something.
Re: Has anyone ever had a spray tan?
You betcha! I have done the Mystic tan a couple of times. It turns my pale skin a nice shade of tan, not orange or overly tan. The experience IMO, is a little scary and cold, but its over in seconds.
I have also had a customed air brush tan (for my wedding) and it was awesome! Much less scary, but you have to be naked in front of a stranger for about 1/2 hour.
I did the mystic spray tan once (for my wedding). It wasn't orange, but it was a little streaky. I had weird blotches on my feet. I forgot and did dishes an hour or so after and that made weird streaks on my hands and arms.
It was not a huge mess or anything, and really only noticable to me, but it wasn't the smooth even effect I get from real tan. Going back, I would've rather just been my pale self.
Yes indeed! the only time I ever had one was for my wedding. I had a custom airbrush tan and it was fantastic! The only weird-ish thing is, like Ang said, you're naked with someone else for about a half hour. The girl I went to was really nice though so she made it not weird. I'd highly recommend it.
Ang - Did you go to De La Luna too? I loved her!

Abba- lol! This is what we told them we did NOT want. The girls were about 12 working there, but they knew what we were talking about.
They came out just fine.
I've done the Mystic and Hollywood tan...I think the Hollywood one is much less scary because you are in a open room and don't have to close the booth around you. Hollywood had a more natural look for me...the mystic one left some streaks around my hands and feet.
Load up on the cream stuff they have beforehand!
