What you'll master
Six outcomes that pay for themselves.
Chapter 2
Read every skin tone with confidence
From Fitzpatrick I-VI through every undertone — and the real-world conditions that affect a tan (eczema, psoriasis, vitiligo, stretch marks, recent UV exposure). You'll know exactly which Sjolie solution to reach for, and why.
Chapter 5
Execute the 10-step Sjolie Method
Front of leg, inside, outside, back. Side of the upper body. The back. Chest and torso. Arms. Face. Hands and feet. Every pass, every distance, every spray pattern — taught with diagrams and the actual instructional video.
Chapter 4
Choose the right Sjolie formula every time
Original vs Luxe lines. Light, medium, and dark shades. DHA percentages. Additives and mixology. The framework that turns formula-selection from a guess into a five-step process.
Chapter 7
Fix what goes wrong, fast
Uneven tans. Orange development. Lack of development. Alligator skin. Every common failure mode that's cost technicians a client — and the exact diagnostic + fix for each.
Chapter 8
Run a profitable studio, not a hobby
LLC vs sole prop vs S-Corp. Real insurance providers (BBI, Insurtec, ASCP) with real annual costs. Unit-economics math. Three pricing tiers. MySunless CRM. The 48-hour follow-up that lifts rebook rate.
Chapter 3
Prep the canvas like a pro
Client prep coaching, technician readiness, special-condition skin (oily, dry, recent shaves, fresh tattoos), and the Sjolie pre-tan line — Sugar Scrub, pH Balancer, Barrier Cream — used correctly.
