• Skip the body lotion on the day of your appointment. Your skin should be completely clean and dry for best results.

• Exfoliate your full body with a mitt or loofa prior to coming in for your appointment. This will promote even coverage and lengthen the duration of your tan.

• Wax before your appointment, if necessary. Shaving and threading are OK after the tan.

• Dress to your comfort level, wearing as much or as little as you prefer during the tan. Most choose to wear underwear or a swimsuit. Men are required to wear shorts or a swimsuit.

• Dark, loose fitting cotton clothing (avoid dry clean only items) is best to dress in following your appointment.

• Plan to stay dry (avoid showering, working out, contact with water or sweating) for 7 hours following your appointment.

Approximately 20 minutes in total. If you are driving, please give yourself additional time for parking

Ultimately, this is the decision of the client. You may undress to your comfort level, and we ask that men wear shorts or underwear. Any clothing you choose to wear during the session (e.g. undergarments or swimsuit) can be laundered once in a normal cycle to remove any excess solution. We also make disposable thongs available for women. After the application, all clients should wear loose, preferably dark clothing and footwear.

Mineral (powder) makeup is OK but liquid makeup must be avoided until your tan has finished developing.

You may shower 7 hours after your appointment. You can shower as early at 5 hours for a slightly lighter version of your tan, or 6 to 7 hours for a fully developed tan. You will not continue to develop a tan after seven hours, so you can shower whenever is most convenient.

We recommend moisturizing head to toe twice daily, using an oil and alcohol-free product. This is incredibly important! We make a tan-extending moisturizer available for purchase in-studio, otherwise we recommend being mindful about the ingredients in your moisturizer to ensure that you are set up for good longevity and fading. Be sure to avoid excessive scrubbing or exfoliating for about a week after your spray tan.

With proper care, your airbrush tan should last anywhere from 8 to 10 days.
