How To Become A Spray Tan Technician

In this informative video, you will learn how to get started in becoming a spray tan technician. There is more to it than picking up a spray gun and shooting tan solution on your client. You will learn the tools needed and how to begin an exciting career in spray tanning.

So if you're thinking about becoming a spray tan technician, the first that you need to do is you need to look up where you can get trained because you must have full accredited training to be a spray tan technician. You also must make sure that you've got public liability insurance as well. Now, basically, you would expect to have a full day's training with your course and with most companies, that should come free or for a very, very small charge when you decide to go with a certain company of your choice.

So what I'm going to do now is I'm going to give you just a quick introduction on what you need to be a spray tan technician. First of all, you need a buffing mitt in your kit. And Charlotte, could you just show the sticky feet? These sticky feet on the feet, what these do is they just stop as I'm spray tanning any of the tan going onto the soles of my model's feet.

The other thing you're going to need, of course, is a pop up cubicle. That way, when you're spraying in people's houses or in your salon, it's basically catching any of the overspray of the products. You also need your selection of products and, of course, your airgun of choice.

So, first of all, we're going to use the organic aloe vera and fruit acid spray just to remove any of the body oils, perfumes, deodorants, just to give us a nice clean canvas to apply the tanning product. Then, of course, you're just going to swap over your bottles. Take your tanning solution and then apply your tanning solution.

Now, remember I did say that any company that you go with that, you decide to become a spray tanner with, they should qualify you and train you in how to use your airgun properly as well. And the last part of the treatment is just locking in a spray tan with a glycerin spray. This keeps the skin super hydrated and super soft.

Okay, so just to recap, when you want to become a spray tan technician, you must make sure that you look for a company that has an accredited course. Also make sure that you've got your public liability insurance. You want to have a look and choose the correct airgun and compressor that suits you.

Make sure you have the buffing mitt because they're ever so handy and, of course, the sticky feet and your beautiful model. And that's how to be a spray tan technician. .
