Spray Tan From Hell!

My daughter had bought a lovely new yellow chiffon dress for her sister's wedding and planned wearing it with strappy sandals. She'd booked a manicure and a pedicure for a few days before and thought a nice spray tan would look great against the yellow dress and the tan leather sandals.

She booked in to the new "Beauty Sanctuary" above the Hospice Charity shop on Abbey Street.

The spray tan was terrible! All streaky with huge white areas that were not even touched and other areas that were far too dark, including the palms of her hands!

Went back to complain this morning and was told there was nothing wrong with it, elbows are apparently supposed to be white and the streaky parts look natural! The girl who did it was very defensive and the one in charge said it isn't their policy to offer a refund. I was disgusted with their attitude. They didn't seem to see why she wasn't happy with it!

Daughter and I went down to Angela Kay's in Warner Street and Hayley there did a brilliant job of blending in the unsprayed parts and making my daughter look human again.
 
It's worse than that - she made a runny mess on her shoulders and told her to smooth it out with her hands and then didn't give her anything to wipe her hnds with. How ludicrous is that?
 
Both My Daughter and Granddaughter had a spray tan last week prior to her wedding they both looked fine yesterday, don't know where they had it done though
 
Rubbish.

They don't know what they're doing.

Anyone who did know what they were doing would never spray the palms of someone's hands.

Nor would someone with the slightest skill in spray tanning, leave someone streaky.
 
Exactly Gaz, like i said, they should put cream on the palms of your hands, nails and toe nails prior to spraying, i only pay £10 when i have mine done and she does a really good job, i have mine done in Rishton

Any body that wants to look that colour should be dunked in creosote, and on some it would be an improvement.
One for the old sayings, you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear.

Have you been on what Tealeaf takes?
This young woman wanted to look her best........because when you look good, you feel good. It was for a 'special' occasion too.
A spray tan went wrong.....and you make unkind comments about creosote. Shame on you!

I agree, totally uncalled for. Willow's daughter is a nice pleasant young lady.

Thank You Lancsdave.
I'm not being picky, but young lasses like to look good.....they don't expect to have their efforts slated.

Why shouldn't they expect a good service.
It may have stopped some other young woman from making the mistake of trusting this salon. They obviously failed to do a good job, and then failed to make good their shoddy work.
The young lady should have had the tan made good, and also had a full refund.

What does Tealeaf take.

Never in all my years, have I ever found the need for owt other than soap & water, I would rather smell of sweat & diesel oil, than be misten for a pufter, and if folk don't like what they see when they look at me, then look somewhere else.

I don't know what Tealeaf takes, but whatever it is it makes him make cheap jibes at people who do not deserve it.
You might want to smell of sweat and diesel oil...but then you are not a fashion conscious young woman.

Retlaw, your comments do not do you justice.

If you have daughters, then you will know that whatever we tell them about looking beautiful, they still want to enhance what nature gave them.

Is that wrong? And if they do want to make the best of themselves, does that make them a sows ear? It isn't very complimentary is it?

I expect that kind of comment from Tealeaf, but I would hope you could be kinder to this young woman....or just a bit more understanding.

These comments are just cheap jibes, however you wrap them up.

Yes, it would have been kinder, but it would still have been an unwarranted comment.
Young girls follow the celebs, they want to look as good as they can and will use all kinds of artifice to ensure they do....lipstick, eyeshadow....fake tan. What's the difference? It was for a special event....a wedding. We all make an extra effort for such occasions. Is that wrong? I don't think it is.
