In reply to: KC 's message, "I think "stupid" is a little harsh, don't you? The choice to tan or not is exactly that, a choice. It's a choice most dancers (and their teachers) make. My daughter does, in fact, have lovely pale Irish skin, she is a complete wash-out under stage lights without fake tan. So yes, she considers it to be part of her "look", as integral as the makeup, the dress, the wig and the shoes and poodle socks." on Tue, Oct 13 2009, 0:04:29"

found this cropped up a lot this year, mainly on those who had gone to the tanning booth on site. Legs super dark, even with bronzer the face didn't match. Cancelled my appointment after seeing how dark they were! (NT) -- :-S, Tue, Oct 13 2009, 7:34:30"
- I spoke to the vendor she said it was because they didn't have a shower. Thety used a 2 pack tan and you need to wash the top layer off after 8 hours to get a lovely even tan. She was a little disappointed thay hadn't as it also made the tan streaky as well as too dark (NT) -- Happy tanned dancer, Tue, Oct 13 2009, 21:36:24"
  - I noticed this too, on the dancers who's legs looked almost chocolate brown, you could see they hadn't washed off the top layer. On another note, why would you not have a shower before you had a full day of dancing!! eewww! I bet this top 'wash off' layer ended up all over the inside of there dress.

  - I found the biggest problem with the vendor was that when I made the booking I was quoted $35 (full tan) and was charged $45 on the day. She also missed a bit on my daughter and one of her friends (don't know if there were others) and when they went book, wasn't willing to fix it. They were made the offer of waiting 45 minute or so until the last appointment was done and then she'd "see if she had time". They bought a tube and fixed it themselves.

    - Back, they went back. LOL (NT) -- KC, Tue, Oct 13 2009, 23:53:02"
    - When I was getting my tan done at the booth, a girl came back to get a missing patch fixed up, and it was fixed right on the spot - no waiting. (NT) -- -, Wed, Oct 14 2009, 2:42:28"
      - Well, the response to my daughter and her friend was "no one will see it" and then as above. I wish she had been as obliging as you say. Plus, there was still the issue of that unexpected price hike... (NT) -- KC, Wed, Oct 14 2009, 8:50:35"
