Everything you need to know before you glow.
Do I need to prep before my spray tan?
Yes please! For the best glow, exfoliate 24 hours before your appointment. Smooth skin = smooth tan.
Avoid oils, lotions, deodorant, and perfume on the day of your tan — they can act like tiny umbrellas and block the colour.
Should I shave or wax before my tan?
Absolutely — but timing matters.
Wax 24–48 hours before your spray tan to allow pores to settle. Shaving should be done at least 24 hours before. Freshly shaved legs + spray tan = patchy drama we don’t want.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Loose, dark clothing is your best friend. Think floaty dresses, oversized tees, joggers — anything comfy that won’t rub your fresh tan. Tight jeans? Absolutely not today.
Do I have to go naked?
Totally up to you! You can wear disposable underwear, your own dark underwear, or go au naturel if you’re comfortable. No judgement here — we’ve seen it all.
Will I look orange?
Not on our watch. The solution is designed to give you a natural glow, not a traffic cone transformation. You’ll leave looking bronzed, not baked.
How long do I leave the tan on?
Usually 6–8 hours before your first rinse (unless we’ve used an express tan, then it could be sooner). We’ll tell you exactly what your tan needs before you leave.
Can I shower straight after?
Not yet, glow-getter. Wait the recommended time before rinsing with lukewarm water only — no soap on the first rinse.

Aftercare (How to Keep That Glow Going)
Why do I look darker straight after?
That’s the guide colour — basically a temporary bronzer so we can see where the tan is applied. When you rinse later, the extra colour washes away and your real tan develops underneath.
How do I make my tan last longer?
Moisturise daily and treat your skin kindly. Hydrated skin holds tan longer. Think of it as feeding your glow.
What should I avoid after my spray tan?
For the first 24 hours try to avoid:
• Heavy sweating
• Swimming
• Baths
• Tight clothing
Basically… don’t run a marathon or soak in a hot tub.
Why is my tan fading in patches?
Usually this is from dry skin or friction (bras, tight waistbands, gym gear). Keep moisturised and your tan will fade more evenly.
Can I shave with a spray tan?
Yes, but gently! Use a sharp razor and minimal pressure. Just know shaving acts as exfoliation, so it may fade the tan slightly faster.
How long will my tan last?
Typically 5–7 days depending on your skin type and aftercare. Moisturise and avoid harsh scrubs if you want to keep the glow going strong.
When can I book my next tan?
Most people come back every 7–10 days for a fresh glow. Your future bronzed self will thank you.
