Leaking Gun
Hi everyone 🤎 I just wanted to check if this is normal with a spray gun in particular the M-Series. I’ve noticed that when I tilt it too far the solution leaks out from around the rim of the cup. I haven’t experienced this with my previous spray guns (both very different from this spray gun), so I’m wondering if this is expected for this type of gun or if it could be an issue with the lid seal. I’d really appreciate your thoughts before I contact the supplier. Thank you

Hi @Izabela Jachowska & everyone 🤎 my win is not letting a slow start to 2026 dull my shine! I’m still in the building phase in a new location & new to business Instagram & feel that due to how the economy is people are just not tanning as regularly as they did 10 years ago! Saying this I am getting some return customers & a couple of new clients thru referrals. 🙌 I also have had success with adding a new tan option to my service menu so now I have a standard & a deluxe tan option which I never thought would kick off so that’s a 2nd win 🤎

Finishing Powder application ideas
Can I open up a discussion with all you lovely technicians about finishing powder application/techniques. Are we applying with a brush or an applicator. I have used both methods but find the dusting with a soft brush directly to the skin is much easier. I have seen on you tube some technicians using the hose to blow the powder onto their client's skin. Has anyone had success with this? I have horrible visions of me doing this and ending up with powder over all my clients face lol Also do you provide this service as complimentary, or do you charge extra?

@Shawna Schimnowski that’s interesting! Based on minimal reviews & no reply I would be very hesitant to make an upfront payment not knowing the ETA on the order! If you hear back can you let me know & I’ll do the same? 🤎

Dry scab
I have a question ,how do you spray tan a client who has recently fallen and has a dry scab? Do you apply a barrier cream on that area and blend it out with a blending brush after tan? How would you handle this situation?

@Izabela Jachowska oh yes that’s such a great tip I will keep that in mind to dab after with a wipe which will no doubt improve the darkness that I mentioned earlier 🙌🤎

Sauna's
So I have this new client who's been a bit awkward tbh but I thought I would book her in she wants it on Thursday but she's now told me she is going in a sauna Friday 🙈 told her its not ideal and that it will probably sweat off. But I've read a bit of confliction on this saying it would be ok after 24 hours? I'm really not convinced by this and hands up it's not something that I have actually tested myself! Any views? TIA xx

Omg @Emma Simpson I can vouch that 2 days post tan I went in a sauna & spa for only a short session of both & it totally stripped my tan! I’m with you @Izabela Jachowska i knew this would happen but wanted the confidence walking in in my swimmers lol
