Frequently asked questions
The most common questions we get from our clients
- Exfoliate at least 24 hours in advance, the goal is to get all the dead skin off your body. Exfoliator mitts and body scrubs work best.
- Shave at least 12 hours in advance. You will still be able to shave lightly after your tan with a new razor head. Shaving within the 12 hours could cause your tan to be blotchy because the ingredients in the shaving liner can linger.
- Come with clean skin, free of sweat, deodorant, lotions, oils, perfume, sunscreen and make up.
- Bring a hair tie or clip
- Remove all jewelry (leave at home so you don't forget it at the studio)
- I provide a disposable thong and hair net. Women may go nude. If you have a swimsuit and you would like to wear it, please bring it.
- Wear loose fitted dark clothing and sandals.
NOTE: Spray tanning should be your last appointment. Please plan accordingly to get your waxing, nails, message, lashes, hair, ect appointment complete the day prior to your spray tan appointment.
Loose dark clothing. The bronzer can stain clothing so wear something you don’t mind getting dirty. Also, don’t wear anything too tight fitting that can compromise your spray tan.
With our classic and organic bronze solution, it is recommended that you wait 8-10 hours before you shower. However, we do offer a Rapid Development Ultra Dark solution for your convenience which allows you to shower in as little as 2 hours. For darker results, it continuously depends over a 12 hour period.
You can go as light or dark as you want to go!
Your spray tan can last up to 14 days depending on your after care routine. Ask about our after care products to help with the longevity of your spray tan.
One of our main priorities is to make you feel comfortable. You wear whatever makes you feel most comfortable, you are in control of your tanning treatment from start to finish. We offer disposable thong underwear and disposable tube tops. If you are more comfortable wearing a swimsuit or your own under garments, just make sure you don’t mind getting tanning solution on them. We can talk about what your are looking to achieve during your consultation at your first appointment and whether or not you want tan lines. *Minors must have a parent present at the time of service.
Yes. However, please wait the necessary 8-10 hours before you wash your face (or the 2 hours for rapid development). Continue with your normal skincare routine. Keep in mind that depending on the products you use, the tan on your face will fade faster than the rest of your body. We have Glow On the Go to help with this.
Always get your mani, pedi, wax or body treatment done 24-48 hours BEFORE your spray tan. This is very important because it can strip your tan.
First make sure you shave the day before your spray tan. This will give the pores time to close before your spray tan. After your spray tan, use a brand new razor. We recommend using conditioner or shower gel to shave— again be careful of the ingredients. I use a clear baby shampoo to shave. Don’t press too hard and don’t shave too often. For those that have to shave every day, I REALLY recommend Glow on the Go. This will keep your spray tan looking as fresh as possible.
