When you spray 16 year olds can they go topless? Or is it illegal until their 18?cos I've got 3 16 year olds for prom next week and am sure they'll wanna go topless cos of their dresses.. What do I say to them?

wouldn't have thought it was illegal? but from my experience its enough for them to take their tops off never mind go topless! bet they are too embarrassed to take their bra's off anyway! If they do want to i'd just spray them, cant see any harm in it - but i'm not a social worker lol

i agree with sherrie they prob wont want to take bra's off. ive also found mothers always come along with the girls when its for proms and stuff, mothers are very protective and want to make sure everything is just perfect for there little princesses !!! sometimes a night mare !! x
Legally there probably would be a problem if it ever became an issue. I have to be CRB checked for our schools parent teacher association to run a few school discos etc.I guess you have to make sure it cant become an issue maybe make sure a parent is present.Its all just so pathetic but we know from news items ridiculous situations can arise and even though there are 16 year olds and less bringing up babies and marrying etc they arent legally adults until 18.

this is a good idea but i have found a couple of problems with this. when they lift their hands up to spray under their arms, their ****s come up and their natural reaction is to grab the bra to save their modesty but this will end up in tan all over their hands from the tan that has been sprayed on their bras, also bras can be quite stiff if padded and if they are triangle shaped and they dress is straight across you might end up with white bits where you dont need them. You can buy disposable bandeau bras which might be better than a bra.
You could also get a seat behind the tent for one of the mothers or chapperones to sit on so they cant actually see the girls being sprayed but could still be present. just give them a couple of magazines to read.

i agree about having a chaperone present... i once worked in a salon where my boss tried to make me spray tan a 10 year old who came in with her 14 year old cousin as a "guardian"...

in 3 years of spray tanning i can honestly say i have never come across this problem - but then after doing so many spray tans i can usually tell what will work and what wont depending on the client and with experience the original poster will be able to adapt situations as well once she finds solutions to the many different problems/issues we may come across.
i am also a spraytan trainer and run my own training academy and wouldnt suggest something that i didnt think would work as a quick solution - i can understand what you are saying - but the original poster was due to spray the girls within a week so she may not have had time to order disposable bandeau bras - that is why i suggested this as an alternative.
there are many things that could be done to combat all of the queries asked thats why this forum is so good as we can all share what works for us indiviudally

Unless they are all sisters they wont want a chaperone present either, I wouldn't have wanted my mates mum sitting there watching me get sprayed topless! :o
