Body Spray Tan:
◦24/48 hours before, exfoliate your entire body with an oil-free body scrub. Luffas do NOT count as exfoliation. Use an exfoliating wash. It is not recommended to exfoliate the day of, since your skin needs to rebuild its natural oils to achieve best results
◦2-3 days prior to your tan be sure to use lots of moisturizer. Spray tans LOVE hydrated skin. Dry skin can lead to patchy, uneven fading
◦Make sure to wax or shave 24hrs prior to your session. Shaving or waxing too close to your appointment will affect the outcome of your tan
◦The day of your tan, take a basic shower several hours before your appointment. If your skin is wet and your pores are exposed, the spray tan will not stick to your skin properly
◦Arrive with clean, product-free skin. NO makeup, lotion, deodorant, perfumes, oils, or othe beauty products the day of your spray tan!! If putting on deodorant, use it very sparingly, as a harmless green tint can appear when solution and deodorant mix
◦Wear dark, loose fitted clothing and open toes sandals.. flips-flops if possible. No yoga pants, bras(unless using for tan line), or denim. Tanning solution will wash out of most fabric, but may stain nylons, Lycra, and silk. Cotton is recommended. While your tan is developing, you do not want clothing or footwear that will rub against the skin
~Complete all other beauty services before your appt such as your hair, nails, facials, and massages. I should be your last beauty appt
Fine Line/Tiny Tattoo:
◦While showering gently exfoliate the area that will be tattooed. Apply lotion to the area to hydrate and soften your skin. Avoid alcohol/drugs, blood thinners, and heavy training for at least 48hrs prior to appt. Also be sure to drink lots of water during the week. Come to appointment with loose clothing in the area that is going to be tattooed
