Home Tanning Skills: Slipping Hair from Skins

Freaky sexy atlas elbow gloves. seriously, when am I going to see a pop star wearing these? http://amzn.to/1n4fpj0 Aside from the chic popstar quality, I love these things and would buy another pair in a second if they got lost. They seem really tough and they keep my hands clean and dry 100%. I've tried to use short gloves before, like dish washing gloves and they inevitably fill with liquid because they're just too short. Actually better not to wear anything at all, which is what I've done for years until I got these. Only caveat, they have somewhat short fingers. I got the medium and they are just passable. If you have long fingers, you should probably order a size up if possible. I've had this apron for a long time, and haven't ordered and tested any other ones. I can recommend though getting a professional grade that is backed with cloth of some kind and not just plastic. This one is probably 20 years old or more and still going strong. If you're just starting out, you don't need any of that stuff. Use a plastic bags or something., But if you keep doing it or deal with other wet/gross stuff, they are super nice to have, especially the gloves.

This is a short video showing a few important details relating to removing the hair from skins after liming. It is a simple and easy process, but there are still mistakes that can be made, and commonly are.

The important points are to have a smooth beam, padding when necessary, use a dull tool, use the tool to drag the hair out of the skin rather than to scrape it off, and be as gentle as lamb.

Previous to this step is liming which loosens the hair. That will be covered in another video. If a liming video is done my the time you read this, it will be in my tanning videos playlist. here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL60FnyEY-eJA7D2FJhI5AvWVx7oqjb4xX
