| Hall of Famer Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: dc Posts: 1,142 | New to airbrush, have had the equipment forever, but finally getting my gal to do it. I had an outside woman doing it, but she is unreliable and it's easier if we just do it ourselves. The other woman was going to train us for a really high fee ($500 for 4 hours) and I figure we can just do it ourselves and use the $$ to put toward product and solution. The woman I am having do it is one of my regular employees and knows her way around an airbrush as she used this medium for her art in the past. From reading and formulating our best strategy for coverage came up with this: FRONT Face/neck first head slightly tilted back Chest area left arm outstretched, left arm palms up to get under/side of body repeat right arm Abs front of legs (bending slightly at knee when doing that area), leg inverted to get inside thigh area into feet (pulling away) BACK neck back into waist outstretch arms to get back of arms back of left leg back of right leg Does this sound good? I know everyone will differ slightly, but I'd like to get a somewhat uniform sequence going. I am using airbrush vs. HVLP because of noise issues. __________________ Jeff __________________ Jeff |

| Salon Owner/Arbonne VP | This is what we do: Client stands facing tech with arms outstretched and legs apart. Start on right foot and work up and down from right to left on each leg. Then up and down on the torso, chest and neck. Then side to side on the torso, chest and neck. From there do the arms. Have the client turn around and do the same on the back as you did the front. Have the client turn to the side and stand with far leg stretched to her front and back leg stretched to her back with the arm closest to you stretched toward the ceiling. Spray the side all the way down and then the inner leg. Have client turn and do the same on her other side. Face front. Check front and then do the face last. Check under the chin. We also have the client hold their hands out in front and do a check to be sure they were done well. ![]() __________________ Kathe Ray ITA member 248.890.6968 Arbonne products make a great add-on sale to any salon.
