the Price of Spray Tanning

My wife and I were getting ready to go to the beach with our family for a vacation. She had heard a lot about this new spray tanning thing that many tanning salons were now offering from her work friends and decided to try it for our trip, so that she wouldn't look so white in her bathing suit. The introductory offer for her first visit knocked $10 off the normal $35 price at this particular place (because she had a referral from a friend). She got a pair of disposable panties and was in a room with a tanning worker who sprayed her everywhere! It took about 1/2 hour and she then had to dry. The tan lasted the whole vacation but was fading somewhat by the end of the week.

My wife liked it but never did it again. She said that it sort of freaked her out to be covered in smelly chemicals like that. She said she felt like a car or something being painted. She also did not really like the orange-tan color that her skin turned afterward. You could tell it was fake if you knew what you were looking for. I did not think it looked that bad and they did a good job of not leaving streaks or darker areas like some I have seen. I do not think we would recommend it though.

Know that you will stay that color for at least 1-2 weeks. Know that you will either be sprayed by a person or a machine (some places we considered you had to stand in this shower-like room and be sprayed by a machine).
