Spray Tan Expert Simone Featured on TV Show Storage Wars

Simone Emmons on Storage Wars

Recently I had a wonderful opportunity to be featured as a spray tanning expert on a recent episode of Starage Wars.  

Storage Wars is an American reality television series on the A&E Network.  Rene and Casey (as featured in the picture with me) are cast members of the show and also the owners of the Bargain Store “Bargain Hunters” in San Diego.  They had found a spray tanning machine kit at one of the auctions and needed a spay tanning expert to tell them how the machine works and how much the spray tanning machine is worth.    

Rene, the owner of the store is originally from Germany and he did not know that I was also from Germany 🙂  It was really fun to shoot with them and provide my knowledge of spray tanning machines during my short stay in San Diego.  

Here is the video clip that was aired on A & E Network on May 24, 2017:

As you can see from the video, it’s not that easy to just start using a spray gun without having prior knowledge on settings and technique.  Learning how to use a spray gun correctly is an art and requires some training.  I’m proud to acknowledge my contribution to have grown this trade, as I have personally already trained over 300 individuals on how to use a spray gun correctly.

How Vitiligo Took My Confidence & Airbrush Tanning Gave It Back – Amanda’s Story

Today I wanted to share our video on Amanda who has Vitiligo.  Amanda models for our spray tanning classes frequently.  This video was created by our intern Carlos (Charlie) who wanted to learn all phases on how to make and edit videos.  This video was his final project before he graduated.  We are really proud of him and he did a wonderful job with capturing Amanda’s story on how she had to deal with Vitiligo and also how airbrush tanning gave her back her confidence.

Because of her unique skin condition, we use Amanda frequently in our spray tanning training classes as we want to teach all our students on how to spray tan individuals with Vitiligo.  Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition characterized by portions of the skin losing their pigment. It occurs when skin pigment cells die or are unable to function.   The cause of Vitiligo is unknown. Amanda had  to deal with this skin condition for so many years.  Here are some pictures of Amanda and you can see how obvious her Vitiligo showed up on her skin:

Luckily, Amanda has done a lot of research and she decided to do a treatment, which she shares in the video. Please take about 9 minutes to watch her story:

And here are the pictures we took on Amanda on how she looks today before getting a spray tan and 10 minutes after the spray tan and then the following day, after she showers off the solution:

I hope that Amanda’s story might help some others who have Vitiligo and we included the contacts to the doctor as well as to the National Vitiligo Association.  We also have several students who have Vitiligo and they wanted to learn airbrush tanning so they could spray tan themselves.  We can proudly say that many of our students spray tan themselves frequently.
