Preparing for Your Appointment

It is very important to have clean, dry and exfoliated skin before your appointment. Be sure to take a shower and exfoliate your entire body with a non-oil based exfoliant prior to your tanning appointment. Please note that any peeling skin or residue left on the skin may act as a barrier, making the tan less effective.
If you need to wax and shave, please do so 24 hours prior to your tanning appointment
Make sure not to have on any makeup, deodorant, lotion or jewelry.
You will want to wear loose clothing that is darker in color. The cosmetic bronzer that is applied will rub off on your clothes, but should easily wash out.

Ladies, you may wear your bathing suit, undergarments, or nothing at all, it is your preference. If you choose to wear undergarments during the application, make sure your clothing is darker in color or an old one that you no longer care for, because it might stain.
Males, undergarments are required. No exceptions.

After your first post tan shower, again please wear loose clothing that is darker in color. The cosmetic bronzer might still rub off on your clothes. Nylon, silk, spandex and wool tend to absorb the bronzer, so please avoid these fabrics.
Avoid contact with water for the first 8 hours for a longer lasting tab.
Try to use a mild body wash instead of a bar of soap when you shower and do not exfoliate. Thoroughly hydrate your skin with body butter/lotion. Avoid hot showers and Jacuzzis, and note that excessive swimming and perspiration can make your tan fade faster.

Always wear sunscreen because there is NO sun protection in the tanning solution.
Your tan should last 7-10 days depending on your before and after care.
