What is Spray Tanning?

Spray tanning is a technique where a fine airbrush mist is sprayed onto the skin to create an even, natural-looking tan. The solution used in spray tanning contains a sugar molecule that reacts with the proteins in the outer layer of the skin to produce a browning effect. This reaction takes place over the course of several hours, and the final result will depend on the type of solution used and how long it is left on the skin.

Your technician will help you determine the spray tan solution and how long it will take to develop prior to needing to rinse/shower.
