At Sienna X we train you to spray the most natural looking tan and help you with ways to avoid problem areas, like the hands for example.Hands are often a big giveaway with fake tans, you know - those awful knuckle shadows and stains on the hands, but it’s really so easy to avoid them by following some simple Sienna X steps. So if you’re experiencing problem hands, give them a go…

Preparation
The most important thing you can do is apply Sienna X Barrier Cream to the hands, ensuring the customer rubs in well around the nails, cuticles and in-between the fingers. Formulated with 100% natural active ingredients, the cream helps prevent the skin from absorbing too much tan and it’s paraben & cruelty free. Apply to elbows, knees and any other dry areas as well.

Spraying
Ask your client to adopt the position as if holding a big ball, and do a quick circular spray, ensuring your gun is approximately 12”/30cm away. Do not overspray this area – the tan will develop.

Post Tan Care
At the end of the tanning treatment, use a Sienna X tan removal wipe over palms and nails and show the customer their hands are clear of tan. Advise them not to touch their skin during the development period (8 hours) as this will result in non removable stains on the hands. If the customer isn’t showering until morning, advise them to wear loose gloves or socks in bed to prevent hands accidentally touching the body during sleep.
