Professional Tan Care Guide
Expert recommendations for optimal spray tan results and longevity
These guidelines are based on professional spray tanning best practices. Individual results may vary. Always follow the specific instructions provided to you at your appointment.
Essential Preparation
24-48 Hours Before Your Appointment
- Exfoliate 24 hours before
Use a gentle exfoliating mitt or scrub to remove dead skin cells. Pay extra attention to dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles.
- Waxing needs to be done 48 or more hours before. If shaving, please complete 24-48 hours before
Complete all hair removal at least a day before your appointment to avoid irritation.
- Shower the morning of your appointment
Take a thorough shower using only water and gentle soap. Rinse well to remove all residue. DO NOT apply any lotion, deodorant, or face makeup after this final shower before your appointment.
- Wear dark, loose clothing
Bring loose-fitting, dark cotton clothes and flip-flops to wear after your session.
- Remove jewelry and accessories
Take off all jewelry, watches, and hair accessories before your appointment.
Important Restrictions
Day of Your Appointment
- Don't apply lotions or oils
Avoid moisturizers, perfumes, deodorants, or makeup on the day of your appointment. These create barriers.
- Don't exercise before your appointment
Skip the gym on tan day. Sweating can affect how the solution develops on your skin.
- Don't get other treatments same day
Avoid manicures, pedicures, massages, or facials on the day of your spray tan.
- Don't wear tight clothing
Tight bras, socks, or waistbands can leave marks and affect tan development.
- Don't arrive with wet hair
Make sure your hair is completely dry. Wet hair can drip and cause streaking.
