My ritual the second I get home from work is to jump in the shower and I didn't think twice about it that night. Needless to say, once I saw the brown dye washing down the drain I knew I was screwed. I stayed streaky for about 3 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402517 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 11:35:56 +0000 tororojo 402517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to fake and bake all the time, then I switched to spray tans after getting a mole removed. I was never streaky or orange! But there are tricks you have to implement to make it look good--i.e. keep your skin moisturized and exfoliated, use primer stuff beforehand, make sure to rub the excess spray off and pay special attention to your finger and toe crotches or they will be orange/brown. Also, keep in mind that it does rub off on light colored clothing! And if you get a good pedicure, your tan will rub off from the knee down. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402465 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 11:22:22 +0000 MediaNaranja 402465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never tanned in my life. Not in a bed, not as a spray, and not naturally either. I am just pasty white, and that is ok with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402452 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 11:18:58 +0000 Turd Ferguson 402452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never done a spray tan, but have always been curious. The fear of being streaky and orange always makes me back out at the last minute... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402311 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 10:28:24 +0000 mrskc 402311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done the booth kind twice. I didn't like it all so I've just accepted that I'm white and don't care about being tan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402301 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 10:22:59 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 402301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it done one time. I think it looked ok, I don't really remember. I'm not self conscious about being fair skinned anymore, so tanning isn't something I spend money on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402225 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 09:44:13 +0000 prettylizy 402225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really enjoy a good spray tan. I'm totally over laying out like I did in high school, but sometimes I just love a touch of colour. I've never done the booth kind, only ever the person spraying you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402219 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 09:39:42 +0000 annie624 402219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to go to the tanning bed before I knew better! I don't anymore. I have gotten several spray tans though. I love them! If you learn how to prep your skin and then take care of it during, they can last a while and (in my experience) look natural! If I had the money, I would have one constantly! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402207 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 09:35:07 +0000 Ash 402207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've done spray tan twice... once for prom and once for a wedding I was in a couple years ago. :) Otherwise, I'm stark white like a BFN. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402063 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 08:03:54 +0000 Mrs. Lovejoy 402063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Both bed and spray.. Ugh, it makes me sad to think about what torture it will do to my skin in the future (the bed tanning, that is).. I just heard a recent statistic that fake baking makes you 90% more susceptible to skin cancer (that may not be the exact percent, but I remember it being an astounding number). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402021 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 07:10:02 +0000 heffalump 402021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No tan for me. I used to do the tan that you put on yourself that's crazy uneven, before spray tan existed. But since than ive accepted my pasty white skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402015 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 07:01:29 +0000 blackbird 402015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friends all got married in Sept/Oct and had strapless dresses for our bridesmaid dresses, so I had plenty of spray tans to cover up my big ugly suntan lines! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-402011 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 06:56:25 +0000 Andrea 402011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I either want to tan naturally or have no tan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-401721 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 23:49:24 +0000 mynoahbear 401721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never gotten any sort of artificial tan.

I have kept 3 of them, which I could actually wear again (even though they all thought that of course). At one point I did have 19 hanging in the closet. It was bananas! </p> <p>I wore the same dress in 3 separate weddings but in different colors. That situation always bothered me a bit lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-401578 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 22:26:26 +0000 Adira 401578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've gotten a spray tan twice before - once for my wedding and once for a wedding I was in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-401577 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 22:26:10 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 401577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep lots of times!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-401571 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 22:23:57 +0000 mrs. bird 401571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've fake baked in one of the spray booths, but not by a person spraying me.

I've done both. I've been in 28 weddings, so sometimes because of swimsuit tan lines it was necessary with bridesmaid dresses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-gotten-a-spray-tan#post-401545 Thu, 15 Nov 2012 22:16:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 401545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope!!
