What Should I Expect?

Before your spray tan we will discuss desired color as well as any special events your tan could be for.  You are welcome to dress to whatever your comfort level is - under garments, topless, nude - it's your choice!  

Before you step in the tent we will tend to a few things; I provide hair nets for my blonde beauties, I provide a pH balancing pre-tan spray and I apply barrier cream.  

Once you are in the tent, I do two light passes over your entire body.  Once those passes are complete with hands, feet and face sprayed I will do a quick dry and finish with a wonderful dry finishing powder - your choice of fragrance.

 Your appointment will take approximately 15-20 minutes, there is an extra 10 minutes added to all tans for cleanup/sanitizing.  When the session is complete, you will need to wear loose clothing.  Avoid wearing a bra, socks or anything restrictive/tight; this is to ensure no smudging of your tan.

 Your tan will be slightly darker immediately after your session and will lighten up after your first rinse.  (You can continue to develop for another 12-24 hours.)

When Can I Shower?

Depending on which type of tan you choose depends on when you can rinse.  You are to rinse (using your hand only) in a luke warm shower for 2-5 minutes until the water runs clear (no more cosmetic bronzer is on you).  Do not use any soaps or loofahs during this rinse.  Try to avoid hot showers and harsh scrubs to extend the life of your spray tan. Depending on the tan you receive you can rinse in as little as 2 hours or as much as 12 hours, this will be discussed at your appointment.

How Long Does a Spray Tan Last?

A spray tan can last for 7 - 10 days with proper care.  With improper care tans sometimes only make it to 5 days.  Using body lotion and body wash with no sulfates, paraben free, and no mineral oils will help to extend the longevity of your tan.  Moisturizing twice a day to stay hydrated also helps extend your tan.  I do have tan extender and spray tan safe body wash for sale in the salon.  Spray Tanning is a luxury service which can be extended with proper care.

How Should I Prepare for my Tan?

You should exfoliate and shave 24 hours prior to your spray tan, any waxing should be done 48 hours prior.  You want to stay hydrated and moisturize daily leading up to your appointment.  Do not apply any lotions or perfumes day of your tan.  Wear or bring loose clothing for after the appointment to change in to.
