It is important to understand your spray tanning results are greatly impacted by the prep and after-care you do at home. Please read thoroughly and submit your consent below.
Before your spray tan:
- Moisturize your entire body regularly the days leading up to your spray tan.
- Mani/pedi,waxing, facials, massages, must be done at least the day before
- Shower, wash hair, shave all unwanted body hair, then exfoliate your entire body with an exfoliating mitt the day or night before your apoointment.
- Do NOT use bar soaps or DOVE, OLAY, opaque milky looking bath products.
- Do NOT use acne lotions or retinols, as they can negatively impact the outcome of your spray tan. Discuss any concerns or questions with us.
- Do not shower, shave, or exfoliate right before your appointment. Your tan will not develop optimally. If it is unavoidable, a short cool water only rinse before your appoinment is ok.
Day of your appointment:
- No makeup, lotions, deodorant, perfume should be on your skin.
During your session:
- Wear what you feel comfortable in (just underwear, underwear and bra, bathing suit) or nothing at all. Most clients prefer no tanlines. Bronzers will wash out of most materials.
- Men are asked to wear a swimsuit, underwear or shorts.
- Remove all jewelry if possible.
- Pull long hair up.
Immediately after your session:
- Wear dark colored, loose clothes after your spray and chill!
- Avoid sweating, crying, or any water exposure until advised.
- No tight socks, shoes, bras.
- You can shower in 8-10 hours (no more than 24) after a classic spray tan. Use lukewarm water, gently pat skin when toweling off.
- If you requested a rapid rinse spray tan, your inital wash off time must be between 2-4 hours, depending on how deep you want your tan. This timing must be exact to achieve your desired result. Please consult with me prior your service.
After-Care: Stay away from bar soaps, Dove products, and lotions with mineral oil or petroleum, acne lotions and anti-aging ingredients like retinols. Gently pat skin dry when toweling off after showers. Moisturize daily. Your spray tan should last about a week if you followed the prep instructions and take care of it as advised.
Hot tubs, pools, salt water, excessive sweating, and manual exfoliation will lighten or remove your tan.
Spray tanning is accomplished by application of a solution containing the active ingredient DHA (Dihydroxyacetone). All ingredients used in this procedure are intended for cosmetic use and generally regarded as safe to use as instructed. Please read the ingredients list if you have any concerns over allergies. This product does not contain a sunscreen and does not protect against sunburn. Repeated exposure of unprotected skin to U.V. Light may increase the risk of skin aging, skin cancer and other harmful effects to the skin, even if you do not burn.
