Spray Painting?

I have been tanning for a month now. Well as many of you know I don't have the complexion for tanning. So I have been "basting" myself 3 times a week. I am to the point where I do not burn each time that I go anymore. Which is a small but important victory. Maybe this will change the way that I tan for the rest of my life. So anyway, I have debated on trying the UV free Mystic Tan. My package ran out yesterday so today I was going to tan per usual, I had been thinking about buying the tan accelerator and trying than. On my way out the door I got involved in a conversation with M and J my two co-workers about tanning. They are boys and don't truly understand the need for me to be tan. As I said they are boys so I will let that go. They pretty much convinced me that I am not getting my desired results from my tanning sessions that it would be better for me to try "getting spray painted" The conversation took a turn for the worse when they were arguing that they wanted to get a job at the tanning place as "the spray painter".

So I convinced myself on the way over that I would do it. I had to watch the cute little video to learn about what to do in the booth so that I didn't end up like Ross in that one episode of Friends. The girl escorted me to the room gave me my instructions and left me to prepare. I undressed and removed my jewelry. I then applied the cream to my hands and feet so that they didn't end up brown. I decided against purchasing the nose plugs and goggles for fear of passing out from not being able to breathe and raccoon eyes. The girl assured me that they weren't necessary just keep your eyes closed. She informed me to breathe through my nose as much as possible not to breathe through my mouth as the tanning solution tasted bad. Boy was she right. It is amazing how quickly you feel like you are going to die from chemical overload. I know have a headache like when you spend all day in a swimming pool. I nervously stepped into the booth. Shut the door and bravely pressed the green start button. I couldn't remember how long she told me before the spraying would start so I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. I did feel like I wasn't able to breathe. But I did fine. The spraying lasted for 14 seconds. I quickly turned around and waited for it to begin again. All you have to do next is exit the booth, towel off the excess solution and get dressed. I have to wait 8 hours to see the maximum effect. We'll see how it goes to see if I would like to go again....
