How to Prepare for your Spray Tan

Preparing for your Spray Tan

OK, you’ve done your research and picked your salon. Here is a checklist of things to do before you even go to your spraytanning specialist, however some things may or may not be necessary depending on what services they provide/include. If you didn’t read the section on How to Choose your SprayTan Specialist, then it may be a good idea to go back to that one first. Here’s your general preparation checklist:

  • Wear or bring loose fitting, dark clothing to change into after the treatment because it is likely some colour transfer will occur. Avoid wool, nylon or silk which can be difficult to wash fabrics.

  • Shave or wax the day before, but definitely not immediately before the spraytan. Preparing the skin for any treatment by stressing it with this level of irritation will increase the chances of product reaction. Oils in waxes or shave creams can interfere with spraytan absorption as well.

  • You may want to prepare the areas you will spend your 2 – 8 hours of showerless waiting for possible colour transfer. Place towels on the seat of your car, couch, chair, or other areas you will rest. If you tend to sleep through it, switch the silk sheets and pillow cases to something easier to clean, like cotton.

  • If your service provider does not provide exfoliating service, or exfoliating showers, exfoliate with a sunless scrub like California Tan Exfoliator or try their Exfoliating Towelettes, which you could use at the location. These special scrubs contain no oils which will interfere with spraytan absorption.

  • Do not apply makeup, moisturizer, deodourant, perfume, etc, unless you know you can remove it at the service provider.

  • Avoid bringing a heavy shoulder bag if you can. The pressure on your shoulder will remove the solution from your shoulder, not to mention the possibility of sweating from carrying it

  • Probably best to avoid important dinners or friendly get togethers during the showerless waiting time after spraytanning. The solution is easily transferred and I doubt your friends will appreciate the brown stains on their new white clothes.
