Xen Tan solution

[beautynana]

Hi I have been using Xen tan for the spray tanning for a few months and clients are still getting orange palms - I have tried everything . Vaseline, moisturiser....i think my clients keep touching while the tan is activating...anybody got any better tips to stop palms tanning .......

Are they sleeping in their tans whilst it is developing?I always tell my clients to wear some of those little moisturising gloves if they are going to sleep in it. If they haven't got any then some baggy socks will do
It's amazing how much people touch themselves when they're asleep.
I had a client come back the day after her tan, saying she had some lighter patches and she said that she hadn't moved at all during the night. When she came in her palms were a lovely orange colour where she must have been touching herself in the night!

Are you sure the the client is not using something on her own?
You wouldn't get orange after using Xen-Tan but rather green.

Try using Security: Barrier Balm. Also have your clients use Hostage, which is a DHA friendly hand sanitizer, after their spray tans. This will only help when they are awake. You may want to do the spray tans earlier in the day, so it has time to activate before they go to bed for the evening. You mentioned clients, so this is happening to more than one person?

Sometimes the best thing to do is go over what should and shouldn't be done after the tan. It may be that you just have to go over it again. You might also want to walk your clients through what they do while the tan is developing. They might not be realizing what they are doing.

if its just the same clients this is happeing I'd say they are sleep touching themselves lol as angelina said make sure they wear cotton gloves, I wear full pj's when I've done tan as I'm quite bad for this but odly enough never had dirty palms lol
I did once forget to tell my BF to turn his hands up when spraying the back the poor soul had dirty palms and got the pure mick taken out him, was my 1st ever tan tbf lol hth xx
