Preparing for Your Spray Tan Appointment

Proper preparation is the key to achieving the perfect, long-lasting tan. Follow these steps to ensure the best results:

1. Exfoliate Your Skin
Gently exfoliate 24 hours before your appointment using a non-oily exfoliating scrub or mitt. This removes dead skin cells and creates a smooth base for an even tan. Avoid using oil-based products as they can create a barrier.

2. Hair Removal
Complete any shaving or waxing at least 24 hours prior to your appointment to prevent irritation.

3. Skip the Lotions and Perfumes
On the day of your appointment, avoid applying lotions, deodorants, or perfumes, right before your appointment as these can interfere with the tanning solution. If you shower the day of, the latest would be 4 before appointment, and apply a light layer of lotion. Moisturize skin helps with the retention of the spray tan

4. Wear Loose, Dark Clothing
After your spray tan, you’ll want to wear loose-fitting, dark clothing to avoid smudging your fresh tan.

5. Plan Your Rinse-Off Time

Post-Tan Aftercare

1. Let Your Tan Develop
   Wait the recommended time (typically 8-12 hours) before showering. During your first rinse, use lukewarm water only—no soap. Gently rinse until the water runs clear.

2. Be Gentle When Showering
   After the initial rinse, use a sulfate-free, hydrating body wash and avoid harsh scrubbing, loofahs, or exfoliating products.

3. Pat Dry, Don’t Rub
   After showering, pat your skin dry with a towel instead of rubbing to prevent premature fading.

4. Moisturize Daily
   Hydrated skin maintains a tan longer. Use an oil-free, fragrance-free moisturizer at least twice a day to prolong your glow.

5. Avoid Water & Sweat
   Limit swimming, long showers, saunas, and heavy sweating, as they can cause your tan to fade unevenly.

6. No Exfoliation Until You’re Ready for a New Tan
   Avoid exfoliating until you're ready to remove your tan completely and start fresh.
