Question for competitors about "the tan"

[Gunsmith]

Just wondering if you guys could post up what you do for your color , i'm hearing more oppinions about this than the damn dieting ,

I've heard get the spray tan twice , Monday then Thursday , then 3-4 coats "protan" starting early friday am putting on one coat every 6hrs

I've heard spray tan on Wednesday , 2 coats protan thursday , 3 coats friday and one coat early saturday (not sure i can go that long with no bath!!)

just wanbting to see what everybody does , I'm not pastey white but i'm not coco yet either

For my show last weekend, my color protocol went like this:

I started tanning in a tanning booth around 4 weeks out, 5 days per week.

The Wednesday before the contest I started using Protan. Shaved wednesday morning and applied the first coat in the afternoon. Slept in it, quick shower Thursday morning to rinse off the excess.

2nd coat Thursday evening.

Quick shower Friday morning. 3rd coat of Protan soon after.

4th coat of Protan on Friday evening.

Saturday morning, I used a coat of Protan Quick Bronze prior to prejudging. I thought this was going to be enough, looking back I wish I was a little darker. 5 Coats of protan probably would have been better. As I heard many competitor say backstage, "you can always be darker."
