to not expect a beauty therapist to ask me.....

[Boozilla]

to "lift my tits up a bit" when applying fake tan??

Yes, they're not the pert, bouncy things they used to be (sort of) before I had 3 DCs but seriously, isn't there a slightly better turn of phrase than that for a spa therapist to use???

And before I get slated for using fake tan, it was a vouncher from DH that was about to expire so I thought what the hell!

Never again, bloody mortified I was.

YANBU I think she could have asked a little more politely than that.

Be reassured she didn't ask you to sling them over your shoulders.

Pretty standard really - you don't want white marks under them do you

Am trying to think of a better way she could have phrased it and struggling slightly.

Yikes! that is SO rude of her.... regardless of what your boobs are like, to use the word "tits" in such a situation is just rude (and common).

I guess when I was standing there in a pair of paper knickers wondering why the hell I was putting myself through this I didn't think the embarrassment could have got any worse.

Clearly I was wrong, I was booked in for a Brazilian with the same girl and decided to cancel it. I shudder to think...

Oh yes a Brazillian would have made the spray tan seem very tame.

Still blushes at memory of first brazilian - I really couldn't look at the beautician afterwards.

Ha sorry had to laugh!

What else could she have said other than boobs? You don't want white spots do you?!

I don't know, boobs, breasts...I think I would have even settled for knockers by that stage.

Agree boobs might have been better, but have avoided spray tan for similar reasons. And when you do lift them, how do they avoid getting spray tan all over your hands?

"If you could kindly elevate your mammary glands, madam"

It wasn't spray tan, it was some cream stuff she was applying by hand.

My friend who was having the same treatment apparently was lying down for the entire thing with soft music and a lovely therapist.

I was made to stand spreadeagled in a pair of paper pants. Life just isn't fair.

And I have saggy -boobs-, sorry tits!

This made me laugh.
I am about to embark on laser hair removal on my legs,and bikini line and had to have photos taken of my nether regions today for before/after photos.
Hope they don't appear on a dodgy website "hairy Mary" or the like.

She should of course, have asked you to do a headstand

I can understand why you feel that way but think yourself lucky to have to lift them - that's not something I'm ever going to be asked, being an A cup ...

Boozilla - believe me compared to the brazillian when the paper pants would have been history and you'd have been pulling and separating bits that really - well really you'd rather not in front of a stranger - you got off lightly

gawd, where was this? not some upmarket salon presumably? lol

i think a "could you just lift your breasts a little" would have sufficed wouldn't it?

I had a spray tan once and was stood,ready, in my paper pants and nowt else, and the beautician walked in, took one look at me and started to snigger!
