Before and After Tanning Instructions

Before Tanning

PLEASE DO NOT SHOWER RIGHT BEFORE YOUR SPRAY TAN AS YOUR SKIN WILL REMAIN HYDRATED FROM THE SHOWER AND WILL NOT GIVE THE BEST RESULTS

  • Shave, shower and exfoliate the night before your tanning appointment. We have exfoliating mitts and exfoliating scrubs available here at the salon.  
  • Showering a minimum of 4 hours before your session is acceptable if you cannot do it the evening before.   
  • Coming right from the gym is NOT recommended as the sweat will create a barrier 
  • Waxing and spa services (pedicure, massage, facial) should be done a minimum of 2 days before your spray tan as the oils can leave a barrier. 
  • Do not use deodorant, makeup, perfume, or moisturizers (including the moisture strip on a razor) the day of your tanning session. 
  • Bring loose fitting clothing and flip flops. (Looser the better!)  
  • You may tan in the undergarment of your choice (preferably a dark color). 
  • Ladies may tan topless. Bathing suits and underwear also work well. 
  • Pull hair back high and tight on top of your head if possible. 

Maintaining Your Tan

  •  Wear loose clothing till after you rinse. 
  •  Wearing a bra is NOT recommended. 
  •  It is very IMPORTANT that you rinse in the timeframe I provide for you in order to get the best results. Waiting longer or earlier can adversely affect the color of the tan, making it too light or to dark.  
  • ONLY rinse with water- NO soap or any other product until 8 hours after your session. Make sure your face and ears are rinsed as well. 
  • You may see color wash off during your first shower which is normal as it is just the cosmetic bronzer washing off. 
  • Do not scrub, use loofahs or washcloths at the time of the rinse. When you come out of the rinse, you will think the color disappeared, but NO WORRIES as it takes 8 hours developing time. The convenience of not having to sleep in the solution is so nice and you are able to wear whatever you want after that rinse. 
  • Avoid any activity that will result in sweating. Refrain from swimming and getting wet.  
  • Working out is NOT recommended immediately after your spray tan. 
  • Please do not allow your pet to lick or jump on you. 
  • 8 hours after your spray tan, you may take a REGULAR shower. No moisturizers or creams until AFTER your first real shower.  
  • Apply perfect glow recommended body lotion or butter and/or tan extender generously post shower. Application twice daily is recommended for optimal results. 
  • Spa Treatments are not recommended after your airbrush tan (ex: massage, facial, pedicure). 
  • Dove products are NOT recommended.  
  • Swimming will fade your tan.   

Products to Avoid

Aftercare Products

Aftercare Products

 Please refrain from the following products as they are known to fade and ruin a sunless tan: 

  • Loofahs, washcloths, baby oil, mineral oil, massage oils, bug sprays, anti-aging products that exfoliate, Dove products (creates skin barriers and your tan will not take) alcohol based toners, astringents (cleansing agents). Any products containing AHA’s or BHA’s or RETIN, accutane and salicylic acids can cause issues. Avoid long swims in pools and oceans as the chlorine and salt water can cause fading (bromine can cause fading). 
  • A spray tan does NOT protect your skin from the sun, so make sure you use sunscreen. I offer sunscreen designed for airbrush tan protection.  Please consult with me if you are unsure if a product is safe for your tan. 
  • Some medications as well as menstrual cycles and hormones can affect the tan as well. 
  • Poor skin preparation will result in a poor tan. 
  • Remember, that the spray tan is on the outer layer of the skin, anything that exfoliates will remove the tan.
