To ensure an even coverage and lasting result we recommend exfoliating and removing any previous tanning products or unwanted hair 24 hours prior to your spray tan appointment. The day of your appointment please keep your skin free of makeup, deodorants and moisturisers. Loose fitting clothing is highly recommended to be worn to avoid tight clothes rubbing on the tan which can create lines or imperfections in the coverage. Remove all jewellery especially rings, bracelets or necklaces. 

Whether your spray tan is for an event or simply a regular treatment your therapist will discuss your needs and desired colour prior. We supply disposable underwear however you are welcome to wear your own or go au natural to prevent tan lines. We use a premium quality spray gun to apply the tanning solution to provide a clean, flawless finish all over the body. 

Spray tans generally last for7-10 days, depending on the coverage you requested; if you wanted a lighter colour, your tan could fade more quickly. We have a variety of tan extenders in clinic to help moisturise your skin and maintain a longer lasting glow. 

We recommend having your spray tan 1-2 days prior to your big day or event for best results.
