How do I prepare for a tan?
Book appointment 2 days before major events. Complete all beauty appointments before tan. Shower, exfoliate and hydrate 24 hours before tan. Shave at least 12 hours before your tan. Bring loose clothes to wear after.
How long does it take to spray me?
15-20 minutes
Expect 30 minutes for your first appointment. We’ll select your color and go over detailed aftercare.
Do I have to be naked?
Completely up to you! I have clients who go full nude and some who prefer to wear a swimsuit or underwear. I always have disposable underwear available.
How long does the tan last?
5-10 days
Results vary by individual and depending on activity level
What do I wear after my tan?
Bring a change of loose clothing to wear immediately after the tan. I love an oversized long sleeve tee and big sweats.
Faux Spray Tan Tee and Faux Lounge Pant available for purchase
When can you shower?
Unless you’re using the express solution, I recommend sleeping in the solution overnight. In the morning, rinse with water only. 24 hours after your tan, take a regular shower with soap.
For the express solution, follow rinse directions from tan artist (2-6 hours depending on skin type).
How can I help the tan last as long as possible?
Keep skin hydrated and moisturized. Avoid products with oil and fragrance ingredients
Do not soak in water or hot tubs for long periods
Salt water will decrease the longevity of tan
Your first shower should be a rinse only, no soap
Try not to sweat until your first rinse
Towel pat try after showering, don’t wipe
Can I get a spray tan if I’m pregnant?
DHA (the main ingredient in the tan solution) is FDA approved, but check with your doc to be sure.

DHA is listed in the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) as a color additive for use in imparting color to the human body. However, its use in cosmetics – including sunless “tanning” products – is restricted to external application. According to CFR, “externally applied” cosmetics are those ‘applied only to external parts of the body and not to the lips or anybody surface covered by mucous membrane” (21 CFR 70.3v).
DHA reacts with the skin’s amino acids resulting in a “tan” similar looking to that of the sun. The darker you can tan naturally, the darker you can tan with a spray tan. Like most cosmetics, avoid exposure to the eyes, lips, and other parts of body covered with a mucous membrane. This should be accomplished by follow the staff’s breathing instructions as to avoid inhaling or ingesting the sunless product and by applying a barrier cream.
Wearing deodorants, lotions or makeup will act as a barrier to the tanning solution, causing an uneven tan and or white spots so we ask that you do not wear these before spray tanning. Completely exfoliating before applying and re-applying will enhance the results. Do not use any oil-based products, alpha hydroxyl acids and mineral oils as they accelerate skin exfoliation.
Please refrain from any activities that will cause perspiration until after your first shower.
Your spray tan should last 5-10 days depending on your skin type and how well you take care of your sunless tan. It’s very important to keep your skin moisturized after your spray tan, avoiding long baths showers hot tubs. Salt water exposure or a chlorinated pool can also shorten your spray tan.
Be advised there may be a small percentage of individuals whose skin does not react favorably to spray tanning. Some medications such as birth control pills, hormone replacement medications, or antibiotics may alter your tan. Please consult with your technician if you have any questions.
Following the spray tan session, please avoid: tight clothes, excessive perspiring, leather seats, and do not shower for at least 6-8 hours. Letting solution stay on overnight without showering is recommended. Some fabrics may be stained by the spray tanning solution, please use caution and care.
All ingredients in the product used in this procedure are intended for cosmetic use and generally regarded as safe. There are, however, occasions where individuals may be allergic to one or more ingredients in the spray tan solution. If this occurs, shower and discontinue use. If severe reaction, contact a physician. You may ask to see the ingredients prior to application.
Be advised we do NOT advise being sprayed for photographic sessions, modeling assignments, weddings, etc. unless you have had a trial spray tan.
Exfoliating, Shaving, & Showering (24 hours before spray tan is recommended) waxing (3) days before, Laser Hair Removal (2 weeks before) or 5 days after spray tan.
WARNING – This product does not contain a sunscreen and does not protect against sunburn.

Additional precautions to take to care for your extensions while using sunless tanners:
Use a mineral sunscreen with UV filters like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
Chemical UV filters in regular sunscreen (avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocyrlene) can cause discoloration or a brassy, pink color to light extensions, especially blonde.
Mineral sunscreens I like (and weren’t chalky)
Add conditioner into your hair if you are planning to go swimming
Apply like a leave-in treatment
Braid your hair and secure it while swimming
If you plan to get into chlorine or sea salt water, rinse your hair and body in tap water first
Shampoo and rinse your hair immediately following swimming. Top it off with a good leave in treatment or oil for good measure
