We have spray tanning down to a science. Literally. We have many spray tan solutions that meets everyone’s need and aesthetic. We’ll consult on the best bronze for you!

We offer standard solutions that can be rinsed off anywhere from 8-12 hours post tan, a semi-express that can be rinsed off 4 hours post tan, and the traditional express that can be rinsed anywhere between 1-3 hours after, depending on the desired depth of the tan.

Your formula will be stored in the client database for easy future decisions.

PRE TAN DO’S

• Exfoliate, shave, wax anything at least 24 hours before your tan appointment.

• Pedicures should be done at least 24 hours before your appointment or 7-10 days after your appointment.

• Rinse in the shower that day – with water only.

• Arrive wearing or bring loose, dark clothing that won’t rub or dig into your skin.

• If it’s raining, please cover all body parts, including feet, and bring an umbrella.

• Be mindful of tan lines you would/wouldn’t want. Be prepared to go naked, wear your own underwear or swimsuit, or the disposable thong we provide. Anything you leave on will leave a line where it is placed and there’s no going back once we start!

• If you are nursing, please bring a strapless bra that clasps in the back so we can cover and avoid spraying that area. Rapid rinse/express tans are encouraged for nursing moms. It’s also highly recommended to wear long sleeves post-tan to ensure you don’t transfer color while holding your little one.

PRE TAN DONT’S

• Do not apply body lotion the day of your tan. Light face lotion is approved, but no sunscreen.

• Do not use a bar of soap or any body wash in the shower the day of your tan.

• If you arrive and are sweating, please let us know and we will make sure to provide you with materials to dry off.

• Please cancel your appointment if you are actively sunburned and peeling.

• Avoid waxing larger body parts the day of your tan. Please schedule them at least 24 hours in advance.

• If you have tinted your brows within 24 hours of your appointment, please let us know so we can cover them with Vaseline to avoid oxidation. Wait 48 hours to tint brows after your tan appointment.

• If you have an appointment for brow lamination, please make sure it is 48 hours before or after your spray tan.

• Do not use Retinol or Retin-A products on your face, neck, or chest at least 48 hours before your appointment.

POST TAN DO’S

• Keep your skin dry until your designated rinse time. Be careful of splashing water when washing your hands.

• At your designated rinse time, use luke-warm water to rinse. Hot water will open your pores and dry out your skin, causing your tan to prematurely fade. After your initial shower, you can use approved, clean body washes to ensure longevity. If you need one, we carry them!

• Apply an approved, tan-safe moisturizer on your body 1-2x/day moving forward. If you need one, we carry them! If you did a rapid rinse/express tan, please avoid using body lotions until after your second shower.

• Pat dry with your towel after showering.

• Keep yourself hydrated with water as this helps keep your skin hydrated from the inside out!

Is it okay to get a spray tan if I’m pregnant or nursing?

The answer is yes, but 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁. DHA, the main ingredient in all self-tanning products, is safe to be used topically when pregnant and nursing. We’ve had plenty of happy mothers-to-be who love treating themselves to this service while pregnant.

If you are nursing, please bring a strapless bra that clasps in the back so we can cover and avoid spraying that area. Rapid rinse/express tans are encouraged for nursing moms! It's also highly recommended to wear long sleeves post-tan to ensure you don't transfer color while holding your little one.

During Tan

This is totally your choice. We’ve seen it all and never judge. From birthday suits (men and women) to full one-piece swimsuits to thongs to shorts to a sock for the guys! Truly up to you!

Ladies, we will always provide you with the option of a disposable thong. Think about what tan lines you would/would not want and the swimsuits or outfits you may be wearing!

Post Tan

We recommend the loosest clothes possible to let your solution set, dry, and breath. Anything that leaves a crease or dent in your skin after taking if off should be avoided! (ex. sports bras, socks, tight jeans, etc.)

I always recommend 1-2 days before your event or vacation. Everyone has different preferences so this is a more personal decision, but if you’re going on an extended vacation, I would highly recommend the day/night before to ensure it’s freshness and longevity!

Facial waxing is fine to do BEFORE your spray tan appointment. If I’m not the one doing your facial waxing, please make sure that your esthetician fully cleans all wax and oils off your face. Doing any waxing service immediately or days after your tan may result in complete removal of your tan.

Regarding body waxing, I highly recommend at least 24 hours BEFORE your spray tan appointment. This guarantees all wax residue and oils are off your skin and won’t block the absorption of the spray tan. When it comes to lash lifting, you cannot get your lashes wet for 24 hours after your appointment, so trying to rinse off your tan without compromising your lashes is tricky! Best to split them up.

As most of us know, we can’t always plan around these things. I am 100% comfortable with anyone still getting their service, as long as you have a feminine product in place (i.e. a tampon, cup, etc). If you are uncomfortable with that and choose to cancel within the 48 hour window, you will be charged the 50% cancellation fee.

My answer is NO! Whether you have a sunburn and are peeling or you got a chemical peel or other service that has caused your skin to peel, it is not advised to spray tan over that. The dry skin will soak up the tan darker and the new skin will not take color at all, which will leave you looking like a splotchy mess. You know I’m not trying to have anyone walking around looking like that!

If you choose to do this, please know that I am not responsible and you will not get a refund or credit. If your skin is peeling from a facial, you can always opt to skip spraying your face and only do your body. Moral of the story? Wear SPF, protect your skin, and don’t get a sunburn in the first place, OK?! OK!

On average, your spray tan should last 5-10 days. This can vary based on skin type, post-tan activities, and how well your skin retains moisture.
