Spray What?!

Spray What?!


So yesterday was the big day.  I was stoked, I was no longer going to be a pale white prego chick.  I was getting my first ever spray tan.  Big deal here people, big deal.  I think my biggest worry of the day was to go topless or not to go topless.  Bahaha, ridic, I know.  But seriously, that's something to take into consideration.  And trust me it was all about how the girl looked who was giving me the tan whether I was going to go with or without.  You know how girls are, oh so judgemental.  And you know they talk.  But I had given myself a nice pep talk.  I know they have seen worse, right?!  lol.  So anyways, I had the appointment made and my swimsuit bottoms packed.  I even kind of ate lite that day thinking I would look "smaller", because God knows the girl giving me a spray tan would end up being some 17 year old blonde bomb shell and I would have to bite my tongue to tell the girl to eat a cheeseburger and have a kid.  Anyways.  So of course, nothing can go as planned.  So I walk into the place and wait my turn in line.  I walk up and say "Hi I have a spray tan appointment at 4:45."  And then I get the look.  Of course we all know how polite and friendly spoiled little stuck up tan workers can be (not you Lacie, promise).  They are always oh so friendly and never look like they judge you one bit.  Baha.  So the look was like ok crazy pregnant woman you are in the WRONG place.  Followed up by, "We do not have spray tanning here."  Wait, what?!  Excuse me.  I was like umm, one of your employees made me an appointment.  So they asked for her name.  And then I was told that she doesn't work at that location.  Are you freaking serious?!?  DOH!  Yeah I was like no way.  I was NOT turning back around to go ten minutes the opposite way and be 15 minutes late for my appointment.  So I settled for a mystic tan and my skin still smells funny today and I don't even feel a single bit more tan.  FML.  Oh well.  I am going to get one next week for sure.  And I will show up to the right location.  Ugh.  So that's my drama for the day.  Any fellow topless spray tanners out there?!  Come on, I need some support here (baha, no pun intended).  lol.

I've gone topless before when getting a spray tan...I was more self conscious about my stretch mark covered stomach than having the girls hanging out in all their glory!! I think it helped that when I mentioned going topless she said "I'm a girl too, I've seen boobs before!"

Too funny that you went to the wrong location...I would have been pissed!!

I go completely nude. The first time I was super nervous until the girl told me that she goes nude along with most of her customers. This same girl does my hair, nails, etc so needless to say she knows me pretty well. lol.

I go topless. My sister and I were just talking about getting one done before the wedding we have to go to on the 21st. The girl does it out of her basement and she was super nice.

I heard about Kalie but I don't know anyone who has gone to her. I heard she has great prices too!! Tell me more Sarah!!
PS - Nicole you are brave. Idk if I could do totally naked. But I'm pretty sure I will go topless now that I know everyone does it!
