Frequently Asked Questions About Spray Tanning
Explore common question about our services
What is spray tanning?
Airbrush spray tanning is a cosmetic procedure that involves applying a sunless tanning solution to the skin using a handheld spray gun or automated spray booth. The solution contains ingredients that darken the skin's pigment, providing a tan without exposure to UV radiation.
How does spray tanning work?
Spray tanning solutions typically contain dihydroxyacetone (DHA), a colorless sugar that interacts with the amino acids in the outermost layer of the skin to produce a temporary tan. The tan develops gradually over a few hours and lasts for several days before gradually fading.
Is spray tanning safe?
Yes, spray tanning is considered safe for most people when performed by trained professionals using high-quality products. DHA, the active ingredient in spray tanning solutions, is approved by the FDA for topical use and has been deemed safe for skin application.
How long does a spray tan last?
The duration of a spray tan varies depending on individual factors such as skin type, preparation, and aftercare. On average, a spray tan can last between 5 to 10 days before gradually fading. Regular moisturizing and avoiding activities that can accelerate exfoliation can help prolong the tan.
Will spray tanning protect my skin from the sun?
No, spray tanning does not provide protection from UV radiation. While a spray tan may darken the skin's pigment, it does not provide a physical barrier against the sun's harmful rays. It's essential to continue using sunscreen to protect your skin when outdoors.
Can I shower after spray tanning?
It's generally recommended to wait at least 8 to 12 hours after a spray tan before showering to allow the tan to fully develop. However, some spray tan solutions offer rapid development times, allowing for shorter wait times before showering. Your technician will provide specific instructions based on the product used.
Will spray tanning stain my clothes?
While spray tanning solutions are designed to be non-staining, there is still a possibility of temporary color transfer to clothing or fabrics immediately after application. It's best to wear loose, dark-colored clothing immediately after a spray tan session and avoid tight-fitting clothing until the tan has fully developed.
Can I exercise after spray tanning?
It's generally recommended to avoid activities that may cause sweating or excessive friction on the skin immediately after spray tanning, as this can affect the tan's development. Wait at least 8 to 12 hours before engaging in vigorous exercise or activities that may cause perspiration.
Are there any specific preparations I need to do before spray tanning?
Yes, to ensure the best results, it's recommended to exfoliate the skin thoroughly before spray tanning to remove dead skin cells and create a smooth surface for application. Avoid using moisturizers, oils, or other skincare products immediately before the session, as they can interfere with the tanning solution's absorption.
