First thing, we’ll set up our tent and discuss what kind of tan you’re wanting. We can fit in any size room! Preferably a larger room with outlets and good lighting is ideal!
Next we’ll get you prepped with barrier cream and then we’ll start spraying!

For best results, you’ll want to shave and exfoliate 12-24 hours before your appointment. Please note, it is very important to not exfoliate the same day as your tan. You’ll want to use an oil free scrub, the oil can potentially be a barrier on the skin which won’t allow the spray tan to absorb or be uneven, which no one wants!
When we meet up for your appointment, make sure you do not have any deodorant, makeup or lotions on your body. We want a nice clean pallet for the tan to adhere to!
If you’re using retinol, stop using it 1-2 days before your tan. For ideal results, moisturize in the days leading up to your tan.
If you’re going to be in the sun in the coming days before your appointment, please be very careful to not get a sunburn. We will not be able to spray sunburnt or peeling skin.

After care is an essential aspect of getting the best results and making your tan last. When it’s time for you to rinse off, you’ll want to rinse with warm water and pat yourself dry. Products with oils, hot water and chlorine will make your tan come off. Make sure to moisturize every day, especially if you do a rapid tan. Please note, it is best NOT to use lotion after the first shower. It is also best to wait 24 hours after rinsing to shave. We want to give the tan time to develop even after rinsing.
If you’re using retinol, please wait 1-2 days after your tan.

Great question! You’ll want to have any waxing, brow/facial treatments done at least 48 hours before your spray tan. Specifically with massage, it’s best to also wait 48 hours after your massage to get sprayed. This is to ensure there’s no oil or lotion lingering that could potentially be a barrier on the skin and make your tan patchy or fade unevenly. Nails should be done 24 hours before your spray tan time.

Loose dark colored clothing is best! Anything tight might potentially rub the tan off. You will also want to avoid getting wet after your appointment until it’s time for you to rinse.

No, what you’re seeing go down the drain is bronzer! We promise it is not the tan washing off! After you rinse off at your allotted shower time. your tan is still very much developing and will be for the next 24 hours or so.
-
You need to avoid excessive sweating or working out for the first 24 hours since you got sprayed. This is because even after you shower, the tan is still very much working and developing and we want don’t want the development to be compromised.

Things happen and if it’s something small, it will mostly likely be totally fine! For example, let’s say you get a couple drops of water on your arm. The thing to do is apply a little bit of lotion in a circular motion to the area that got wet. If it’s anything larger than that, please reach out to us and we’ll talk through the specifics.
-
No! The spray tan does NOT provide any SPF protection. You will definitely need to protect your skin in the sun. Be mindful your sunscreen does not have alcohols or oils as this will weaken and break down the tan. You’ll want to use an oil free, hypoallergenic sunscreen.

Cancellation Policy
We get it, things happen sometimes! If you need to cancel your appointment 48 hours before your set time, we will do our best to work with you to reschedule.
If you cancel less than 48 hours before your scheduled time, you will need to pay 100% of the service fee. Clients who fail to do so will not be able to schedule future tans until the amount is fully paid. Time slots can be difficult to fill last minute because of the prep work involved prior to the appointment.
Please also note we will not spray any clients who are sunburned or peeling because of a sunburn. If you get sunburned before your appointment, please get in touch with us ASAP. Our cancellation policy applies to any tan needing to be rescheduled or cancelled because of sunburns/peeling. Thank you for understanding!
