A: It takes approximately 15 minutes to get sprayed and 10 minutes for it to completely dry. We booked spray tanning appointment for 30 minutes.
Q: What should I wear?
A: Please dress in dark, loose fitting clothing or in a loose sun dress. We recommend for you to wear long loose pants and a long sleeve shirt. Tight clothing, jeans, or long socks are not recommended.
Q: How do I maintain my tan?
A: Avoid any contact with water for at least 8-12 hours after your appointment. We recommend our clients not to shower or exercise for at least 8 hours.
-
Wear loose clothing after tanning for at least 6 hours. No tight jeans or high socks because the tan will rub and streak.
-
It's important to moisturize after every shower. Avoid any products with alcohol and AHA it will cause your tan to fade.
-
Avoid long hot showers or baths.
Q: How often can I get sprayed?
A: Once a week.
Q: What do I wear during my session?
A: If you are a woman, you may wear the bottom of a swimsuit, a thong, or disposable underwear which we provide. If you wish to have no tan line that is also fine.
*If you are a man, we require that you use an undergarment.
Q: How long will my tan last?
A: Your tan will last 6-10 days depending on how well you take care of your skin. Keep in mind that just like a natural suntan, the results are temporary and the outer layer of your skin is continuously sloughing off.
Q: Will the solution stain my clothes?
A: Wool and light colored nylon fabrics are candidates for staining. Cotton fabrics will get dirty, but the solution will wash out easily.
Q: How do I prepare for my tan?
A: You must exfoliate, this is important! Exfoliate your skin the night before or the morning of your appointment to remove dead skin cells. Please exfoliate several hours prior to your session.
-
Avoid wearing make-up, perfumes, lotions, oils, or any products on the skin that could create a barrier. Your skin must be completely dry so please allow enough time between your shower and appointment.
-
Shave or wax at least 8 hours before your session to minimize irritation. If you waxed the morning of your appointment we recommend that you shower before your tanning session.
-
No sunburns, sunburns have a possibility of peeling, which will peel your spray tan.
