The goal of the Sjolie Technique is to provide clients with the most natural-looking tan, in a quick and comfortable service. To achieve this, we’ve created a 1-coat technique using a combination of vertical spray patterns and sectioned passes proven successful and easy to learn for new sunless professionals. Our one-coat method will provide the most natural tan without overdoing it in areas that don’t naturally get color. Plus, you’ll have more control over the amount of solution used and less waste at the end of each service.

The Sjolie Technique covers a large surface area with minimal product and minimal time spent on one area of the body. Our sectioned passes help to create a visually easier work space which can be less intimidating for both the client and technician. In addition, this relieves stress on our bodies by reducing our passes to only what is necessary. When spraying side to side, you’re exerting more energy in your service and potentially applying too much solution because of the excessive layering with each pass.

It’s important to be clear when instructing a client on the positioning needed during a service; with the Sjolie Technique, little movement by the client is required, so explanation of the standing positions are simple & will make the client will feel very comfortable during the service.

While for most, over-spray can be detrimental to a spray tan, we’ve created the Sjolie Technique to utilize over-spray to benefit. When applying, over-spray will fall on the body, enhancing color (like on the feet and hands) without being too heavy or drastic. This also minimizes wasted product during the service. Ultimately, creating an effortless spray tan experience for both clients and technicians.
