About Tanning

Spray Tan Solution Strength Levels Explained

DHA concentration usually runs from 8% for a light glow up to 14% for a deep bronze. Technicians pick strength by skin tone, not just by request. Fair skin often takes 8% to 10%. Medium tones handle 10% to 12%. Deeper results need 12% to 14%. The developer mixing ratio also affects how dark the guide color looks on skin before showering.

Common Problems and What Causes Them

Orange palms come from skipped barrier cream on nails and cuticles. Green patches on knees and elbows mean those areas were not buffed smooth. Streaks along the spine or ankles point to uneven spray distance, usually closer than 15 cm. Fading in 2 days rather than 7 points to heavy moisturiser use or sweat trapped under tight clothing after application.

What a Tanning Service Usually Covers

Mobile tanning pros offer spray tan application, airbrush contouring, and sometimes pre-tan skin prep. Ask if the technician brings a pop-up tent, an HVLP spray gun, and a solution suited to your skin tone. Confirm whether exfoliation wipes, barrier cream, and post-tan powder are included in the visit fee before booking.

How to Spot a Qualified Technician

Look for formal spray tan certification, a portfolio of before-and-after images, and proof of insurance covering cosmetic application at private homes. Ask how many clients they serve per week and which brands they have trained with. Reviews that mention even fade and minimal orange tones are a strong sign.

Questions Worth Asking Before You Book

Ask which solution brand and DHA percentage will be used. Confirm the development time, aftercare products supplied, and how the tech handles skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Request the full cost including travel, and check the reschedule policy when cancelling fewer than 24 hours before the visit.

Prep Work Clients Should Do Beforehand

Exfoliate 12 to 24 hours before the appointment using a glove mitt and oil free scrub. Shave or wax at least 24 hours ahead. Skip moisturiser, deodorant, perfume, and makeup on the day. Wear loose dark clothing and loose slip on shoes. Remove jewellery. These steps stop the tan from streaking, patchy areas, or turning orange where product sits unevenly.

Aftercare Rules in the First 24 Hours

Wear loose dark clothing for at least 6 hours after application. Do not shower, sweat, or get wet for 8 to 10 hours. Skip gym sessions, saunas, and swimming. Avoid tight waistbands, bra straps, or handbags pressed against skin. Use only water based products when washing the face. Pat dry, do not rub. These rules let the DHA finish reacting with skin cells.

How Long an At-Home Session Lasts

A standard full-body spray tan takes 20 to 30 minutes including setup. Allow 10 more minutes for drying before putting on loose dark clothing. The colour develops over 6 to 10 hours. Most sessions fit inside a 1-hour appointment window, so plan transport and clothing choices around that timeframe.

How Long the Tan Should Last

A professional spray tan typically lasts 7 to 10 days with correct aftercare. Longevity depends on shower frequency, sweating, and skincare products used. Oil-based body washes strip colour fast. Switching to pH-balanced soap and patting dry with a towel can extend results by 2 to 3 days.

Types of Tanning Methods Explained

Mobile tanning usually means either spray tan or airbrush tan. Both use DHA solution applied through a handheld nozzle or a tent setup with a spray gun. Spray tents are lightweight, around 1.5 m tall, and portable. Airbrush gives more precise control on hands and feet. Choose based on whether you want full coverage fast or a custom blended shade across body areas.
