Frequently asked questions
The most common questions we get from our clients
I will set up in your home, we will find a spot with natural lighting and an outlet nearby (I do bring an extension cord if needed). Don't worry if your appointment is after dark; I also will bring a ring light to provide more lighting if I need it. Next I will set up my tent- only a small space needed; and a 6 foot ceiling. This will take me a few seconds. Then I will lay out a towel to protect right in front of the tent. I will then do a skin consultation with you, and discuss what you're tanning for and what your color goals are. Then I will mix up your customized solution based on your skin type and color goals. I will provide you with barrier cream and prep spray; and any disposables (hair net/thongs/nipples covers--please alway dress to your comfort! For females >18 no clothing is appropriate as well!. Then I will have you step into the tent facing the back. I will then start spraying you with the solution and coach you through the different ways to stand. I will use a blending brush to make sure your tan is seamless; especially your hands and feet. After double checking everything over; I will apply my magical drying powder to your body. This smells SO good, and prevents the tan from feeling sticky and the bronzers from moving. I will finish by cleaning your nails; and wrists. You will then exit the tent and get dressed in your black baggy clothing. I will review post care instructions and provide you with a rinse time; to rinse off your bronzer on your skin. I will pack everything back up (3-5 minutes) and have you check out via card or cash and I will be on my way. You will not have any mess left behind and it will be like I was never there.
Yes, spray tanning is a safe alternative to sun tanning. The solution is applied in a controlled environment and is made with FDA-approved ingredients. However, it is always best to consult with your healthcare provider before getting a spray tan.
No, absolutely not! The Solution I use is made of the highest quality, natural ingredients. I will discuss the customized solution based on your skin consult (that is performed at every apt) and your rinse time. When appropriate post care is followed you will not turn orange; and will be the perfect bronze!
