Pre Tan Prep Instructions:

Shower, shave and exfoliate 24 hours prior to your appointment. Showering and shaving too close to your spray tan appointment can negatively alter the way your skin processes the solution.

If you are getting a wax, massage or pedicure, complete these at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. This will ensure the oils and products they use have had time to wash off of your skin.

Do not use retinol products the week leading up to your tan.

Come to your appointment with your skin free of all products. This includes jewelry, lotions, deodorant, make-up, oils and perfumes.

Last but not least, sunburn season is upon us! You will need to wait at least 4-6 weeks after a peeling burn to get a spray tan. Failure to do so will result in a very uneven/splotchy tan and none of us want this. If you come to your appointment with a fresh burn, I must send you home because spray tans and sunburns do NOT mix.

It is the day of your spray tan! Wondering what you need to do today?

Make sure you have followed my pre-tan care instructions

Wear loose/dark clothing and open-toed sandals or slides to your appointment. Please note that the bronzer in the spray tan solution may transfer to your items but is water soluble and should wash out. You will want to stay away from tight clothing, bras, socks and tennis shoes after being sprayed so your tan can develop evenly.

Post Spray Tan Instructions:

Following your spray tan, avoid any water exposure. This includes sweating, swimming and showering before your designated rinse time. Your recommend shower time will be provided at your appointment.

Avoid applying make-up, oils, lotions, deodorants and perfume until after your first full shower, Micah will chose a time frame for you and let you know at the appointment.

If you have pets, do not let them lick you while your tan is developing.

To avoid stained palms, avoid palm to skin contact while your tan is developing.

When it is time for that first shower (rinse), do not use soap. Just a water rinse is recommended. If needed, you can lightly wash pits/privates but keep the soap very minimal. The goal is to get in and out in a speedy fashion! If you see streaks after getting out of the shower, hop back in and use your hand to guide the leftover bronzer off. Pat dry with your towel. The more water exposure your skin has, the faster the spray tan will fade. Keep the water temperature lukewarm for that first shower.

Tips to making your tan last longer:

Taking shorter showers and moisturizing daily with a natural lotion will help lengthen the life of your tan.

Stay away from lotions that have mineral oil and high amounts of fragrance (Bath & Body Works and Victoria Secret). Those ingredients will melt your tan right off.

Simple lotion with no added ingredients like lubiderm, serve and cetaphil are great.

Acknowledge that the following activities can strip your spray tan faster: Chlorine, salt water, long hot showers/baths, saunas and excessive sweating.

What to expect.
