So in so so pale I'm almost see through! I want to try a very light fake tan have tried at home and failed I have an appointment on Tuesday but I worried about standing naked in front of the therapist. I'm fat, will she judge me? 😳

I’m sure the therapist has seen people of all shapes and sizes. They will be more interested in making sure you get even coverage.

Make sure you tell them that you only want a light tank though.

*tan 😂 hopefully there won’t be any tanks....

Nah i’m fat and stand there in my scants quote happily.

No she’ll have seen all shapes and sizes. Make sure you lift your boobs up do you get sprayed underneath... I had white crescents under mine and had to call her back in Blush

This is my job, I've spray tanned hundreds of people and honestly I don't care one jot what you weight, if you have hairy legs, stretch marks... I'm to busy concentrating on where the tans going. Go and enjoy your tan Smile

As a specialist beauty therapist I can honestly say we see different bodies all day everyday all different shapes and sizes.

Your body won’t look any different to what we have seen and I can assure you even if the therapist is looking, it’s only to ensure she has covered every area.

And the second you leave the room is the second the memory of your body leaves our minds.

Only spray tans I’ve had, my friends done them (it’s their job). And I get sprayed naked, then have to hold my boobs up to be sprayed so I don’t have big white marks! Lol
I don’t care at all, and neither do they. They’ve seen so many shapes and sizes, like I have from working in care, that a body is a body. Once you’ve seen one vulva, penis and boobs, you’ve seen them all.
I’m not small, size 16-18, with 34H boobs, and I don’t think about it at all. Please, honestly, do not worry!!

I have another question, what prep should I be doing today? I thought shave, exfoliating and moisturise. Do I shower in the am before my app? Can I still use deodorant and moisturiser? Is it best not to and have clear skin?

How did it go? Hopefully better than Ross’s! images.app.goo.gl/DSRN1d2sVVDAwDPn7

No not at all. Just wear decent pants you'll be ok.
