Everything your need to know before your spray tan

Spray Tan Preparation & Aftercare Instructions

To achieve the most flawless and long-lasting spray tan, proper preparation and aftercare are essential. Please follow these guidelines:

One Week Before Your Appointment:

    •    Hydrate your skin daily by moisturizing morning and night. Well-moisturized skin ensures even color absorption.

 

24 Hours Before Your Tan:

    •    Shower, exfoliate, and shave to remove dead skin cells and ensure a smooth surface.

    •    Moisturize after exfoliating to lock in hydration.

 

Day of Your Tan:

    •    Rinse off any remaining lotion, makeup, deodorant, or perfumes before arriving.

    •    Wear loose-fitting, dark clothing and easy-to-remove shoes such as slides or sandals.

    •    Pull your hair back into a ponytail or bun and bring a hair clip if needed.

 

At Your Appointment:

    •    A team member will escort you to the spray booth and walk you through the process.

    •    You will completely undress to your comfort level and remove all jewelry.

    •    Put your hair up and cover it using the provided plastic cap.

    •    Step into the booth and wave your hand in front of the green sensor to activate the machine.

    •    Follow the verbal instructions given by the machine as it walks you through the spray and drying process.

    •    Once your final spray is complete, the machine will dry your body.

    •    Wait until you feel fully dry before getting dressed. If needed, remain in the booth a little longer.

    •    When instructed, step out and close the booth door so it can begin its self-cleaning cycle.

 

Before Leaving the Salon:

    •    Gently wash your hands – top, bottom, between fingers, and palms – to avoid overly tanned palms.

    •    Pat hands dry and moisturize, gently blending at the wrists for a seamless finish.

 

​

Post-Tan Care:

 

Norvell Rapid Tan Solution

    •    This solution develops based on how long it is left on the skin:

    •    1 hour = light tan

    •    2 hours = medium tan

    •    3 hours = deep tan

    •    After your desired development time, take a quick, warm rinse to wash off the cosmetic bronzer (no soap).

    •    Pat your skin dry and apply a hydrating moisturizer.

 

For the next 24 hours, your tan will continue to develop. To keep your glow fresh and even:

    •    Moisturize at least twice daily

    •    Avoid activities that cause excessive sweating or rubbing

    •    Sleep in loose, dark clothing to avoid transfer

 

Longevity Tips:

    •    Tans typically last 5 to 10 days, depending on your skin’s natural exfoliation cycle.

    •    Once the tan starts fading, gently exfoliate to remove any remaining color evenly.
