has anyone gotten a professional airbrused "spray tan" from a salon before, or know someone who did? if so, how did it look? i usually have no problem sporting my fair skin, but once or twice a year in the beginning of spring or summer, i like to get somewhat of a base tan just so i don't blind people at the beach!

anyway i hate tanning beds because they are so bad for you and i can never get sunless tanning lotion on my body evenly. i'm thinking of getting a spray tan since wmc is coming up and i'll be in a swimsuit most of the days, but i'm kinda scared it'll look dumb.

my sister got one done a summer ago and i wouldn't reccomend it...

she has very fair skin similar to yourself and it looked good, but they fade pretty quickly and you have to go back just about every week. also i've read that they aren't good for you from a medical perspective, but i can't remember exactly what the article is about...


i dunno though...coulda just been a shitty salon

well i wouldn't be doing it every week...just a one time thing for wmc i just found a spa near me that does it for $35 a session. it says that it might stain light colored clothing though...that sucks.

oh yeah that was another thing hehe...came off on some of my sisters clothes


but shit...i say go for it hehehe...it does look good temporarily

I love pale girls. They are the sexor! lobster backs look less innocent or something///!? cant put my finger on it. just a personal preference.

My girlio uses Tan lotion & it usually works ok. You just dont pack it on as if you are grouting yourself. Go a light tan.

yea i think fair skin can be very pretty too, especially on girls...just as long as it's not that pastey white. down here it is very latin and everyone has these beautiful tans, so when i go to the beach, i'm like, "damn i'm really white" even though i'm not THAT white...everyone is just so damn dark down here.

It is similar down here in australia. I havent been going down to the beach as regularly as I used to. It is funny how a tan fades quite quickly. It's Ok for me, cause my hairy arms & legs gives a tanish impression

yea well you really shouldn't tan anyway, it is so bad for you...especially if you have fair skin. i have my dad's irish complexion and he has already had some skin cancer cells removed from his face...thank god it was nothing serious, but he really stressed to me how important it is to wear sunscreen and not to lay out all the time. now i'm really cautious and almost always put some sort of sun screen on when i'm going to be out doors all day. i even use make up that has SPF 15 in it.


i just talked to the boyfriend and we're both gonna try this airbrush tan in a couple weeks before wmc

i thought that for the base tan thing to work you had to do more than one session. but maybe that's just if you hit the bed things. thats what my girl is doin for WMC...i think she's been about 3 times so far...starting to look good

hmm, i'm not sure. i'm going to call the day spa that does them this afternoon and ask about it. my boyfriend has a giftcard for that place that he hasn't used yet, so he's gonna get one with me.


on another note...i am so F&@&*@(* stoked for wmc...it's all i can think about i'm taking the whole week off.


u should check out the free party on friday the 25th at nikki beach club...it goes all day and all night w/ a pretty nice line up
