The Tanning Shop

Uneven, patchy and not great value.
First time getting tanned and it was a bit disappointing. Having asked for a light glow, the lady (who it must be said is very nice and friendly) proceeded to coat the front of my legs and my arms about a hundred times, and then missed great patches around the back. The result the next morning? Bizarre russet hands, bronzed front half and pallid white legs at the back.
When I queried this in the shop before leaving I was told by the smooth talking front desk man James that this was normal as it depends on how much your skin absorbs (so, spraying half the body with ten times more than the other doesn’t affect the result?)
If you go here, watch out for James he appears very nice and friendly, but is a bit of a smooth talker! He tried to convince me into a sun bed despite the fact I had level 1skin (i.e. I burn if I so much as turn on a light!) He also declared that their beds are special and you can’t get skin cancer from them!!!
Having found out it was my first time, the automatic spray tan machine suddenly, coincidentally, was broken and I found myself having to pay £10 extra for the manual tan.
All in all not great value for the money. The tan was not even and (thankfully!) the majority of it washed off this morning in the shower anyway.
