SPRAY TANNING

  • Skin Prep

    • Shower and exfoliate 24 to 48 hours before your appointment using non oil-based products. We recommend our Pre-Tan Exfoliating Gel available in studio, or a loofah, dry brush, or exfoliating mitt.

    • You may lightly moisturize after exfoliating.

    • Shave or wax at least 48 hours before your appointment — never the same day.

    • If you wear a strong antiperspirant deodorant, exfoliate the underarm area thoroughly before your appointment and do not wear it on the day of your tan.

    Day of Your Appointment

    • Arrive with clean, dry skin — free of lotions, deodorant, and perfume.

    • Wear loose, dark clothing with no tight straps or bands.

    • We offer disposable undergarments, or you are welcome to tan nude. Please note that any undergarment worn will leave a tan line.

    • If you are pregnant, please consult your doctor before scheduling.

    • If nursing, request to wear the disposable bra during application.

    • Please inform your technician of any allergies or skin sensitivities before your appointment.

    Please contact us for a full ingredient list if you have any concerns regarding allergies or skin conditions.

  • Developing Your Tan

    • Wait the full development time before showering — 1 to 3 hours for Express Formula, 8 to 12 hours for Original Formula.

    • Your color will appear darker before your first rinse. This is completely normal — excess bronzer will wash off and will not affect your final result.

    • Your finished tan continues to develop after your first rinse. Final results typically appear within 24 hours.

    Your First Rinse

    • Use warm — not hot — water for your first shower rinse.

    • No soap, no products, no scrubbing during your first rinse.

    • Do not shave during your first warm water rinse.

    • Pat dry with a towel — never rub.

    Maintaining Your Tan

    • Moisturize twice daily to extend the life of your tan.

    • Avoid oil-based products, exfoliants, salts, and scrubs while your tan is active — these will break it down faster.

    • Avoid extended time in pools, hot tubs, or the ocean — chlorine and salt will fade your tan.

    • Apply sunscreen daily to protect both your skin and your tan.

    • Stay hydrated and moisturize consistently for the longest-lasting results.

    Ask us about our post-tan products available in studio — formulated specifically to extend and nourish your custom tan.

    • Schedule waxing, peels, or any exfoliating treatments at least 48 hours before your tan — never after.

    • Schedule nail appointments before your tan. If scheduling after, wait until your first warm water rinse is complete and inform your nail technician that you have a fresh airbrush tan.

  • Getting a tan in winter or on a rainy day? Here's how to protect your results:

    • Wear warm, loose-fitting clothing like sweatpants or a hoodie — nothing tight that could smudge or rub.

    • Cover up when you leave — gloves, scarves, and a hooded coat will protect your skin from wind, rain, and snow.

    • Carry an umbrella or wear a hooded jacket — even light precipitation can impact a fresh tan.

    • Bring slip-on shoes and avoid tight boots or leggings immediately after your appointment.

    • Avoid hot showers — stick to lukewarm water and a gentle gel body wash.

    • Moisturize regularly — cold weather dries out skin and causes tans to fade faster.

LASH SERVICES

    • Remove contact lenses before your appointment.

    • Arrive with clean lashes — free of mascara and eye makeup.

    • Lash appointments are quiet services. We recommend bringing earbuds or headphones so you can relax with your favorite music or podcast.

    • Avoid caffeine before a lash lift if you are sensitive — it can cause eye fluttering during the service.

    • Avoid getting lashes wet for 24 hours after your service.

    • Do not rub or touch your lashes immediately after your appointment.

    • Avoid steam, saunas, and swimming for the first 24 to 48 hours.

    • Results from a lash lift typically last six to eight weeks.

    • To maintain your results, apply a lash conditioning serum regularly.

WAXING

    • Hair must be at least a quarter inch in length — approximately 10 to 14 days of growth.

    • Exfoliate the area 48 hours before your appointment.

    • You are welcome to take a painkiller in the hour before your session.

    • For bikini and Brazilian services, wear soft cotton underwear and loose-fitting bottoms — avoid tight pants or jeans.

    • Avoid scheduling waxing after a spray tan — always wax before tanning.

    • Avoid heat for 24 hours after waxing — this includes hot showers, saunas, and steam.

    • Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for 24 to 48 hours post wax.

    • Do not exfoliate the waxed area for at least 48 hours.

    • Moisturize the area daily to keep skin smooth and reduce ingrown hairs.

    • Begin gentle exfoliation of the waxed area after 48 hours to prevent ingrown hairs.

BROWS

    • Arrive with your natural brows — avoid filling them in so we can assess your natural shape.

    • Avoid retinol or exfoliating skincare products on the brow area for 48 hours before your appointment.

    • If you have had any facial treatments, peels, or laser procedures recently, please let us know before booking.

    • Avoid getting brows wet for 24 hours after lamination or tinting.

    • Do not apply makeup, skincare, or oils directly to the brow area for 24 hours.

    • Avoid steam, saunas, and swimming for 24 to 48 hours after lamination.

    • Brow lamination results typically last four to six weeks — apply a nourishing brow serum regularly to maintain results.

    • Avoid retinol or exfoliating products on the brow area between appointments.
