"In this clip we're going to show how we actually wrap our guest. After all the product is applied, and the guest is comfortable, you might want to ask them if they need a bolster. Are you comfortable Lizzy? You are? So, we're going to use our mylar foil, sometimes known as a space blanket, and usually they're the kind of blankets that people bring on camping trips or, you know, out in the wilderness, or for the iron man to retain heat with out being too heavy. So, we're just going to wrap her up like a little burrito or enchilada. Even though I know that Lizzy said she wanted to be a chimichanga, we're not going to deep fry her. We're going to make sure every side is tucked in. Are you claustrophobic? You always want to ask your guest that because there's nothing worse than coming back and seeing that your client has unwrapped themselves, and then they're dissatisfied with your service. Make sure it's extra tight, we don't want any heat escaping. The whole point of this treatment is to allow the heat to work. And now she's a mummy. "
