Before & After Tanning Tips
Before Tanning
 
Bathe, shave and exfoliate your skin.  Avoid using a pre tan scrubs with any oils in them, use a wash cloth or body scrubber if you're not sure.
 
If your tan is scheduled a few days in advance, begin moisturizing your skin right away and at least 2 times a day to prepare your skin for tanning. 
 
Do not wear or apply deodorant, lotions or perfumed products to your tanning session.
 
Wear loose dark clothing and sandals after your session.  Tight or restrictive clothing will damage your developing tan.
 
Wear lip balm or lipstick to your appointment.
 
 
After Tanning
 
DHA will deepen in color 3 to 5 hours after your treatment and will continue to develop for up to 24 hours.  Unless specified during your tanning session, we recommend you leave your tan on for at least 12 hours or as long as possible up to 24 hours.  This will help ensure a deep tan that will last. 
 
 
During color development and until your first shower, we recommend following these instructions:
 
Refrain from vigorous exercise resulting in perspiration.
 
Avoid getting wet - as rain, swimming, splashes of water can result in streaky or uneven results.
 
Refrain from touching tanned areas of your skin to avoid transferring color to the palms of your hands or uneven development.
 
To maintain and extend your tan, moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!! This is key to even fading and tan longevity.
