Tanning Essentials

To ensure you receive the maximum benefit from your tanning experience, please follow the following instructions before your appointment.

Prior to spray tan application:
Shower and exfoliate before your appointment
Wear dark, loose fitting clothing and slip on shoes (Do not wear jeans, socks or shoes)
Do not wear any nylon, wool or silk clothing especially bras and undies
Do all waxing and shaving prior to the spray tan
Salon may offer disposable g-string

After spray tan application:
If possible, it is best not to wear a bra for the rest of the day
Avoid water contact for at least 12 hours. This includes perspiring, staying out of heat, and keeping your body as cool as possible.
To achieve a deeper, darker tan avoid showering until the next morning.

Note: when you do shower, a little brown colour will rinse off.
This is excess guide colour, and is normal the first shower following application. After this you may wear any type of clothing.

Home maintenance
Moisturise daily. This will help to fade the tan naturally
Don’t exfoliate until the 8th or 10th day
