I was gonna do this, one on tomorrow at college but was told that it was for full-time students only, which I thinks really unfair. I do nights there as its easier for me but think I shouldn't be left out because of that. Its the Lotion application they're doing.

I did manual with St.Tropez, I looked into spray tanning wtih St.Tropez but the set up costs were ridiclous as they would only supply their equipment apparently an hvlp (which a lot of techs use) is not good enough for them.

Hi I think the manual St Tropez is very nice because the client gets the full works,i.e the exfoliating,moisturising of dry areas then the application of the tan.

It is long winded compared to a spray tan though and not ideal for those short on time.

I love the overall effect of the St Tropez tan.If it's looked after correctly it can last 7 to 10 days.Tan depth can be altered to suit individuals by applying moisturiser for a lighter tan and less for a darker tan.

I cant remember how much I paid,but it was while I was at college and so because it was 2 of our classes combined it got the cost down.I think it was about £25.00-£30.00 per person.But please bear in mind that was because of the amount of people doing the training for that day.HTH

Its a wonderfully relaxing trt but rarely do them these days - people want quick trts which is why the spray is king.

I did my training last year up here in scotland and it's only £25.

I get a bit scared of doing tans though as nearly everyone up here has dry skin and they don't realise it. Therefore it comes out a bit streaky. I think I would rather do the spray tanning but using St Tropez.

I got a freebie a couple of weeks ago of Aero Bronze (St Tropez in a can) Anyone used that on themselves yet?
